The Beths

This is for Beth.

So the Beths, they're from New Zealand and their lead singer named the band the Beths because of Gilmore Girls.

And like she liked that Lorelei named her daughter after Lorelei.

So it's kind of the same thing.

And then music-wise, I haven't gone to any shows at all except for This Is Funny.

Suze and I both love The Beths.

But she really loves The Beths.

I think right now, her favorite... band uh maybe tied with bell and sebastian but we've seen bell and sebastian i just feel like at this point i don't need to see bell and sebastian anymore it's like i've i saw them before the turn towards pop rock i saw them after the turn towards pop rock and then i'm like the latest latest records i've all been like fine but i don't care so i don't need to see them the best the minute we found out who they were they came to the u.s and the show was too much money wait is there

is there a link between the two

And she's got a real hit or miss for things we want to do.

But we're like, OK, Maeve, we're going to go to this thing.

We don't have tickets to get in, but we're going to stay outside and listen to the Beths.

Which New Zealand indie artist won best alternative album at the 2020 Aotearoa Music Awards for jump rope gazers? Okay.

Marlon Williams, The Beths, Aldous Harding, how do we say that? Nadia Reid.

And by the way, I've got no idea.

I'm just thinking I need to start listening to more modern Kiwi music.

Be The Beths.

You are correct.

Woo! That was a guess, wasn't it?

They toured this summer.

with the Pixies and the Beths and they're always they're always kind of out there they're as I said before this is the first album that I heard of theirs and they are my favorite band and they're the only band that I have I'm on the mailing list for so I get updates about them regularly so that's a fun fact also so anyway girls can tell let's start with John what'd you think of this album

Josh, I'm beginning to think that one of the great disservices of me and music was that the first thing that I consumed of Spoon was The Underdog, which is a song that I do not like.

It's also very

Okay.

The Beths on WPRK, Winter Park, Florida.

You're listening to A Certain Degree.

Good morning.

Uh, tell me, Max, did you have a goat? Did you have a choice for a goat?

Uh, my pick was Harmonic Generator by The Beths.

Oh, The Beths.

Oh, it's a tune.

Yeah.

So during August, they do like 12 shows.

I mean, Beach Bunny and the Beths are going to be there, Sugar, Courtney Barnett.

So I think that...

Anita Franco was just there.

So is 15 years the cutoff point for a joke to stop being dated and actually become relevant again? I'm saying no, mostly because this might be the strangest instance of punching down that I've ever seen.

There is a 0% chance that the Beths would hand over their full zanny worm stash to Jerry.

Not because they care about him, but because they're selfish.

We call it a muppuccino.
