Hot on the heels of Karen O (Yeah Yeah Yeahs)‘s incredible new LP Lux Prima and Sam Spiegel (N.A.S.A.)‘s new single “Perfect,” the two old friends and collaborators sat down for a deep dive on the Talkhouse Podcast.  Buckle up for stories of working with everyone from Ol’ Dirty Bastard to David Byrne to Danger Mouse; collab-ing with your literal family — Sam’s brother is Spike Jonze — and your figurative one, as Karen does in the YYYs; and the rad audio-visual experiences that Sam and Karen created for each of their new projects.
