Dumpster Dive
Chris Cain and Keith Murray, famous as We Are Scientists, talk trash weekly over drinks.
Episodes
The Harry Styles candle, wookies in film, and the story behind Keith's long-time preference for a home haircut, plus a listen to our new single, and Chris's Don Pardo impersonation.
We speculate about whether humans can be freed from romantic attraction, talk nude selfies in the age of coronavirus, and Chris clarifies for Keith several pieces of dialog from the hit TV series "The Big Bang Theory."
We hash out some of the problems with one of our very early, pre-signing hits, "Mothra vs. We Are Scientists," including misidentification of Mothra's gender and slipshod musicianship. Then we take issue with bands who named themselves after other bands' songs, which we have been incorrectly accused of doing ourselves.
Today we dig into "WASABI," our collaboration with Art Brut for Record Store Day 2019, which has just been released for digital streaming. We reminisce about our 2006 North American tour with Art Brut and Spinto Band, during which Chris won a $1300 bet with our tour manager which is described here in great detail.
Dylan fans will be torn by this episode; in it, Keith presents a resplendent example of the Nobel laureate's craft while simultaneously trashing both his art and his process. Chris, meanwhile, lays out a convincing roadmap for actor Shia LaBoeuf, should the latter wish to remake some portion of Arnold Schwarzenegger's films. Includes the original song "Red Planet Blues" in its entirety.
All hail the margarita! Perhaps the finest example of a very fine category (the cocktail). This episode includes the track "Skinny Margarita," plus a discussion of why those are bad, and what makes a perfect marg. Esoterica such as the Tommy Margarita, the Conga Cooler, and the Chili's in Crowley, Louisiana, are also considered.
Travel; pilots' meals; the innocence of Shawn Mendes; cuisine of southern Europe… it's all on the map for this episode, which includes the song "2days7hrs" at around 18:00. Please buckle your safety belt.
This episode tackles the nagging epistemological dilemma of knowability: what can we know? Must knowledge be true? Also, what's the connection between "tubbing" and "tubing"? Includes the song "T.U.B." for you to hear.
Body odor is discussed, as is vegetarianism, and the connection between the two. We also wade into the tricky subject of Woody Allen and how his behavior might change our consideration of his art. And: how many Hollywood stars can you name who have Polish ancestry? As we establish during this episode, there are tons. Features the track "Dad Wars."
The significance of foxes in folklore; the writing of songs in 45 minutes; slipping Earth's surly bonds — all are subjects central to this episode. With the track "Carrot Snout" in full.
Extended thoughts on serial killers, the film "Copycat" and its justified place in the killer-movie canon, plus the debut of Dump Truck track "Jesus Takes a Keytar Solo."
Freshly quarantined in New York City due to the coronavirus pandemic, Keith and Chris talk “Dump Truck,” a new series of releases drawn from their songwriting wastebasket. Includes the track “Back on the Weed,” and a discussion of intoxication vs. inspiration.

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
