Episode #81: Sadie Dupuis (Speedy Ortiz) - New Album and the influence comic books had on her

This week’s guest is Sadie Dupuis of the band Speedy Ortiz. Recently, Speedy Ortiz released their third album Twerp Verse via Carpark Records. During our interview, we talked about how they scrapped the original plans for their third album in response to things going on in society, along with the struggles of basically being self-employed as a musician and the influence that comic books had on her upbringing and the band. Sadie’s suggestion for a future Fresh is the Word guest is Charles Aaron, formerly of Spin Magazine. She tells some great stories about him during this episode.
