Hey everyone...in honor of our upcoming 100th episode (!!!), I'll be occasionally re-releasing some of my favorite past conversations. And why not start with a bang: Actor, Musician & Director Paddy Considine on his favorite band Guided By Voices and their documentary Watch Me Jumpstart (Episode 34 which originally aired on May 2nd, 2024).
Now that you've all caught up with Paddy and the rest of the Harrigan family on the season finale of MobLand & his band Riding The Low releasing their latest 12" EP (Above And Beyond), it's time to revisit this episode where we discuss this band that brought us together and how this documentary changed our lives forever.
The original podcast show notes:
This week, we talked to the actor (House Of The Dragons, 24 Hour Party People, The World’s End), musician (Riding The Low), writer/director (Tyrannosaur, Journeyman) Paddy Considine, about his all-time favorite band (in any universe), Guided By Voices and the documentary Watch Me Jumpstart. We discuss these mythical legends of Dayton, what it was like for Chris being in the band and working with Pollard, Pollard’s incredible work ethic and output, Paddy’s trip from the UK to visit Ohio for the first time and taking a GBV/Bob Pollard tour of Dayton, the eureka moment of understanding the band, wrapping your mind around Bob's lyrics, the early confusion of why, how and who was recording this music, being under-appreciated by the establishment, GBV's influence on Paddy's acting writing & music, Pollard's legendary mix-tapes, turning people onto the band, the obsession of collecting Pollard's entire discography, beer, basements and talking to Bono about Guided By Voices.
So, disarm the settlers, and let’s go deep into the world of Guided By Voices on this episode of Revolutions Per Movie.
