I didn't expect to like listening to Julien's interviews as much as I do. She should start a podcast, very good talker.
she really has a nice "podcast" voice
Sometimes I just skip the songs to get to the parts where she teaches philosophy during interviews
I agree. Usually, if I'm listening to a podcast and there is music, I skip the music. I didn't skip anything with this. Everything was enjoyable.
Whatever she wants
phoebe was so right for that
Fr
Julien is such a gem. Jesus, what a world we would live in if more people in power had her heart.
JB, "I should have gone to law school to make a difference"
Meanwhile me, a lawyer, "I should have become a musician to make a difference"
Hahaha I love seeing different perspectives like this
Every time I get some stupid pleading or email from opposing counsel, I think about just quitting and starting a band....
Julien enthusiastically nodding to Cheryl talking about her kittens is all I needed today
Timestamps for the songs if anyone needs them!
10:57 - 13:55 "Faith Healer"

Thank you
Julien Baker: "I don't have to intellectualize everything"
Me: OH PLEASE DO!!
I would love to have Julien as a teacher. I always hang on to her every word.
Fuck, her take on good and bad brought me to tears, this girl always gets me so emotional.
Truly every time I hear her speak it’s as if my heart stops beating so I can listen closer
the Scott poster in the background breaks me. It must be so hard to recover from depression when one of your close friends and inspirations wasn't able to carry on himself
Scott who is that?
@@ghost__chips Scott Hutchison, vocalist of Frightened Rabbit. Julien covered their song "The Modern Leper".
@@TheWolfblade87 she's covered at least 6 of their songs. One of her favourites to perform is Nitrous Gas
@@TheWolfblade87 "How It Gets In" is an absolutely beautiful song featuring both of them as well.
hardline is very f.r
This is a blessing after a difficult week. Julien Baker is an absolute gem
WE ARE BEING FED TODAY ❤️ THANK YOU
Finally, some good fucking food!
this whole interview and concert is so beautiful and moving; Julien has such a brilliant mind, and an eloquent way of capturing deep emotional truths, whether through songs or speech. I'm so happy to see her well and exploring new horizons after what's seemed to have been a rough couple years, but a lot of personal growth and healing 🖤 I love that for her, and I love new JB music for all of us.
I also loved Julien and Cheryl's discussion on her pursuing education of some kind down the line, and would 100% sign up for a Julien Baker MasterClass
so happy "mercy" is actually going to be released in it's studio version as song in E !!!
i mightve screeched and thrown my headphones....
I don't really care what course Julien Baker will teach, I'm taking it.
She's so real. So SO real, that my MTV-oriented mind has troubles to totaly grasp it sometimes.
I'm learning a lot with Baker. In my 40s.
protect these two at all costs
So so so so excited that Mercy is on the record even if under a new name
The fell on black days cover was simply perfect omfg her voice and soul so good
THIS!
I really appreciated your language in the interview. You have a definite ability to discuss emotion. Separately, you seem to use music to both punctuate and augment your lyrics. That’s a talent that I praise and regard highly. Thank you.
+++ to Cheryl for not only being a great interviewer but also managing to direct things back to playing the music, because I think I would just talk to Julien for like 5 hours. I realize it's her job and she's good at it, but ...yeah I'm pretty sure I'd just get into a conversation about things like epistemological elitism for as long as she wanted to tbh.

Faith Healer - 10:56
Song in E - 26:32
Hardline - 29:20
Fell on Black Days - 42:55
Hero.
24:05 she turned on the light
I thought I loved Hardline, but her cover of Fell on Black Days truly blew me away.
couldnt agree more. i’m blown away
this is not the content I want it's the content I need
this was the first time I heard song in E in its entirety and wow, just wow, I actually fell completely silent and started sobbing, who allowed such a masterpiece to be created.
this was everything we all needed today, KEXP. thank you.
Phoebe and Julien racing to have to most appearances
Social engineering bro. Get unplugged.
@@TheAgentAssassin wtf u on about mate
I first saw Julien perform on Tiny Desk I believe around of after the release of Sprained Ankle. I was absolutely captivated by that performance and have loosely followed her musical ventures, many times via KEXP, since then.
That said, I did not hear anything about this turbulent time that the new album is a reflection on. This interview is stunningly bare and direct and honest. The music is great as well - but this conversation sheds light on the kind of struggles we all confront but often don’t share or try not to acknowledge.
Thank you KEXP and JB for bringing us all the beautiful music and also the humble/human discussion around a difficult subject and personal struggle by a truly gifted songwriter and musician.
I could listen to Julian talk all day. Really intelligent and engaging.
Julien's spontaneous eloquence floors me every time
I hope songs like something and everybody does get remade for her live show with full arrangements that will he amazing
julien please be the guardian of my life form
God I love Cheryl and Julien so much 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭
"epistemic elitism"
*jots it down*
Ok but why did I actually do that
literally googled to make sure whether it was epistemic or epistemologic (which are related, either could have gone in the sentence, but i didn't remember the word epistemic bc we talked a lot about the privileging and especially the gendering of epistemology in college, which is what happens when you kind of force-make yourself a queer studies major when that major doesn't exist at your school) and she's totally right and also i want to talk to her about it for like 5 years.
Just when you think Julian Baker can’t more clearly shed light on a topic, she tuns on a lamp. She is, in my humble opinion, one of the greatest song writers of our time. Such a beautiful sole.
Telecaster Queen
Scott in the background
hardline reminds me of a song from her early days before sprained ankle!! her bands name escapes me but it's SOOO refreshing I'm so excited!!!
edit: The Star Killers!! if you haven't heard them and you like jb, please listen to their album on bandcamp. you won't be disappointed
CHERYL WATERS SUPREMACY
I love Julien so much and Cheryl Waters has to be one of my all time favorite interviewers. Also the portrait behind Julien of Scott Hutchison brought such a big smile to my face. :) ♥️
holy shit song in e sounds incredible
Julien Baker: Simply talks
Me: cries uncontrollably
literally having the hardest week and this made it so much more bearable :)
Cry snowflake
@@Alix777. lmfao okay i will
Please feel better soon! Ignore the dumbass's comment, there's still people out there who care :)
@@ssg2689 simp
i'm sorry :( i'm proud of you for getting through it! youve got it
I love her so bad😭😭😭
Cheryl Waters, hope you have an amazing day!!
same same same!
I really didn't expect Faith Healer to come right after she spoke of "mourning that mythos"
Nothing has hit me that hard in months
Such a beautiful soul, and such beautiful music...
3 years later and i’m still sobbing at this
Love this! Thanks KEXP!
A very smart person like Julien harboring a wish to be a teacher makes me feel good for having the same crazy wish and going through with it. Don't know if she'll ever join us, but here's hoping smart people continue to be called to teaching, in greater numbers, so that the profession can be elevated. In the meantime... these songs are sounding so good, I'm imagining (dreaming) how good they'd sound live in a concert hall.
Excellent. Love the Hanif Abdurraqib shout out!
Yes, this is what I needed... Thank you. A truly wonderful person, would listen to her for hours.
Thank you for brightening up my day.
Fabulous conversation - fabulous artist. Thank you KEXP
Hello Cheryl! I'm from Portugal and I love you and KEXP so much! Hello Julien! I love your work so much too. Keep rocking!
That was so pleasant. You're both such kind hearted and sweet people❤️ Very soothing morning show☺️
HOLY SHIT JULIEN COVERING MY FAV SONG EVER¿¿¿¿¿¿ how did we get so lucky with her ughhh im in love
Great session, I love the Fell on black Days cover, awesone
I'm thankful for you Julien, and Cheryl you're always such a pleasure, thanks KEXP 🖤
I *also* used to think Brandi Carlisle's Black Hole Sun was the best Soundgarden cover out there. Thank you Julien for proving me wrong.
so stoked with the new record
Big chills from "Fell On Black Days"!!!
Im so grateful for this!!
Kexp and Julien Baker. Doesn't get any better.
I'm happy Julien is alive and making music and thinks deeply about healing and about what's going on in the world.
Never clicked a CZcams link so quickly.
i for one am entirely in favor of Julien Baker propagandizing the youths
Julien no this is more than I could take in a day! but thank you
These drum sounds are amazing!
oh my, yes please and thank you.
This is such a heartening thing to watch at a moment like this one
I´m hopelessly in love with Julien
You just made my day.
Live shows need to come back. Hopefully this spring. KEXP rules!!!!
Great interview and performance Julien!
I have immense respect and admiration for Julien Baker as a human being and musician and I just want to mention that she is an incredibly tiny human being
Just seen this. I couldn't love Julien more right now... How inspiring is she?!!!
That Soundgarden cover though 🙏🙏🙏
What a brilliant woman...
I found this very calming today
Like talking with myself
You don't need oil
To open your third eye
I'm quite real
One love
BE THE LIGHT
Julien is so adorable!!
I wonder if Cheryl was rocking the black Vans as well
So good. All album tracks are amazing
It's so cool to listen to Julien's music, you can relate her music with her words in the interview, so authentic.. love it. \m/.
great!!! so inspiring!!! thank YOU!!!
That's a poster of Scott Hutchinson behind her isn't it?
✨crush intensifies✨
Drum sounds are superb.
something random but at 41:07 you can just hear Beans and their collar. And i find that endearing for some reason.
What's nice about Julien is that she is dead honest! Much success Julien & you sure are making up for a lack of touring.. Take it easy & have fun!
Julien Baker just never misses!
its starting to look like this is gonna be my favorite julien record. ah, how exciting
ugh so true queen
The new album couldn't come soon enough.
So great!
So in love... this is real music!!
Such great music, and a great attitude.
this is so good
TWO ANGELS OMG
Two of the heroes of our time!
Thank you!
