In this episode comedian and button certified hero, Kathryn Mather joins Matthew to talk about the video career of viral sensations OK GO and how the band has gone from literal treadmills to an endless treadmill of higher expectations. From the simple lo-fi fun of Here We Go Again, through the Rube Goldberg craziness of This Too Shall Pass and Needing/Getting, and finally onto the late-stage capitalism excesses of I Won’t Let you Down and Obsession, we look at the gilded cage the band has made for themselves. And while it may no longer be fun for them it will be really fun for you!
