Baxie talks with 7-time Grammy Award nominee Ryan Adams! Widely considered to be one of the greatest songwriters of his generation, Ryan's career has been marked with both amazing accomplishments and very public controversies. Yet, his output of music continues to be astounding--releasing more than 30 albums over the last 24 years. This includes the five albums that he released on the same day earlier this year! He's also about to finally release his long overdue (but heavily bootlegged) album "Blackhole"--a record that has been shelved in 2006!

This is a very rare but wide-ranging interview. Ryan talks about his music, songwriting, creativity, performing live, baseball, cancel culture, and about the controversy surrounding the allegations waged against him in 2019 by the New York Times!
