Addison CohenHOST
I tend to gravitate towards stuff where you maybe don't have features on it as these are the shining examples of what Reliant K does well.
Addison CohenHOST
But then we did pick Deathbed that has probably the best cameo you guys have ever had, which is with John Foreman from Switchfoot.
Addison CohenHOST
Clearly, yeah.
Addison CohenHOST
But that's also because it's a work of art, not just because John Foreman's there.
Addison CohenHOST
He's the sprinkles.
Will McCauleyHOST
And the way a band uses a feature says something about that band.
CalebHOST
Yeah, I, I think some of the lyrics are really good on this.
CalebHOST
I, I will poke fun at Lake's late stage Switchfoot at times, and I know it's intentional, right? Jon Foreman is, uh, and you guys are ba- probably more in the know, he is writing lyrics intentionally, so they are not overtly religious sometimes, but they are also very much ...
CalebHOST
Those themes are there.
CalebHOST
Those, and the, there, he is, he is a little general at times on purpose, and that is a, that is a, a vision and a mission and a goal.
Elliot SegalHOST
[laughs] And he's just up there singing away.
Elliot SegalHOST
And at one point when, when, when Jon Foreman, the, the lead singer, called him up and was like, "Well, hey, Nathan, will you sing this song with me?" At some point, Jon was like, "All right.
Elliot SegalHOST
You got it." Yeah.
Elliot SegalHOST
And just walked away and started, just kept playing guitar.
Landon SheetzHOST
Like each new track is like, oh, now we're doing a different sort of thing.
Landon SheetzHOST
And he's leaning into his sort of John Foreman thing that he does where he talks a little funny, like says words differently than anyone else.
Landon SheetzHOST
Not in a weird way, but in a way that you're like, you're just cool.
Landon SheetzHOST
Yeah.
BrandonHOST
Why was there not like a, you guys know Christians can make good music.
BrandonHOST
You ever heard of John Foreman instead? It's like...
BrandonHOST
Remember a little guy named John Rubin? But this came out the Christmas before I super got in a youth group.
BrandonHOST
So this was when I was first just starting to like...
BrandonHOST
We actually had this, um, this running like bit where we talked about how, what if he started a podcast, just reviewing our podcast and actually like got really big.
BrandonHOST
So like we would discuss switch foot, but then my friend Andrew would have like John Foreman on his episode discussing our review of his album and So we just had this running joke that like, John, how do you feel about Brandon giving you a three stars on that album?
JoelHOST
That's a pretty good idea.
JoelHOST
Somebody should line that thing up.
Anthony RaneriGUEST
And I always go back to, um, like the U2 lyric, um, I'm not even a hu- huge U2 fan, but somebody, I wish I could remember who.
Anthony RaneriGUEST
I think, I wanna say it was John Foreman.
Anthony RaneriGUEST

My all-time favorite is definitely Switchfoot.
