Episode 85 – The Ko-Host Chronicles

What this episode covers

The Third Men Podcast is proud to welcome back one of our absolute all-time favorite special guests, Detroit music legend Ko Melina! Ko is back with us again for an new extended interview that goes way deeper, and way WILDER than any extended interview has gone before! When last on the show, we discussed her musical origins and place among the musical Illuminati of the Detroit rock boom at the turn of millennium. This episode we take a deep dive into loads of new topics, including tons of awesome stories about her tenure in the raucous, melodic and always-entertaining Dirtbombs. As a special treat, Ko was kind enough to give us some fascinating insight into her time working for The White Stripes, and what the early stage presence of Jack and Meg felt like from both on and off the stage. Plus we're joined by frequent Third Woman Kate McCoy to go deep into Dirtbombs trivia, and find out for us why exactly Mick Collins might not be allowed onto TV On The Radio's tour bus anymore! It's a wild and crazy ride and we'd like to again thank Ko for joining us once more on an awesome tour of all her amazing stories!<br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
