Tim Rutili of Califone returns! Tim shares his thoughts about the pitfalls of nostalgia, the moment playing guitar felt like it was a part of him, the undeniable creepiness of Gene Simmons, and the process of making Califone's new album VILLAGERS.

PRODUCTION NOTE: Due to bad internet there are a couple edits that jump a little time. I have much sadness about this.
