In this first episode of a two part interview the great debate proposed by Jeffery Lewis in episodes 2 and 3, that "PUNK music is white music minus the blues" continues.  Sully and Jason also jump around from post-punk to new wave to hair metal and back again.  Bands such as Mission of Burma, Elbow, and Minor Threat are talked about and played along side such groups as EXTREME, Bjork, and Suicide.  This episode is for listeners who want to really listen.  Whether it be the rich complexness of Fugazi or the chanting soundscapes of Elbow, Jason and Sully pick specific songs to play and talk about.  The songs mean something to each them on a deeper level that warrants more than a casual listen or 15 second snippet.  Only on WTP?! will Sully play two versions of the same song by two different artists back to back and let the listener decide which is the better version.  Come on in, find out and join the discussion.List of Songs in this episode:came here looking, straight edge, guilty of being white, shut the door, mexican standoff, don't mix your drinks, grounds for divorce, academy fight song, that's when I reach for my revolver, shadazz, shadowplay, twenty four hours, pornograffitti, a forest, jigsaw feeling, motorcrash, human behavior, ghost rider

In the second half of the interview with Freak Folk / Punk Artist Jeffrey Lewis Sully continues a deep dive into being a comic book artist, discovering Daniel Johnston and Jeff's evolution into becoming a musician while distilling down blues and folk music in order to figure out what makes punk music “punk”. Jeffrey is one of the most original songwriters Sully has come across in the last decade, “These are albums that people need to sit down with and just listen.”

Sully discovers Jeffrey Lewis' song Complete History Of Punk Rock  sending him down the rabbit hole of listening to all of Jeffrey's music from the album The Last Time I Did Acid I Went Insane to his new release Bad Wiring.  Enthralled by Jeffrey's musical and lyrical sensibilities, as well as his underground comic book FUFF, Sully reaches out to talk about the origins of the punk ethos from 1960's folk revival and psychedelic / freak-folk groups  through the 1970's scene on both sides of the Atlantic and his work as an artist.  The two songwriters talk about creative process, touring, and what it means to be an independent artist these days.  Jeffrey references the Anti Folk bands Prewar Yardsale, The Moldy Peaches, indie rock band Cornershop, and his musical heroes Daniel Johnston and David Berman from the Silver Jews.  As always Sully packs this episode with mostly full length songs, "because songs were made to be listened to from beginning to end and not in little snippets".  Sully references the documentary Dylan: Roads Rapidly Changing, and the book Please Kill Me by Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain in this two part episode as he does in past and future ones.  It is the definitive book in Sully' s opinion, "an essential read for all music enthusiasts".  List of songs in these two episodes:something good, kill the ghoul, anthem, I know what I want, don't play cards with satan,  what went wrong,  downloading porn with davo, sleep on the left side,  avenue a shanghai hollywood, no lsd tonight, I saw a hippie girl on 8th avenue, came here looking, sad screaming old man, mosquito mass-murderist, whistle past the graveyard, cult boyfriend, babe I'm gonna leave you, I shit my pants, new amphetamine shriek, bodies, punk is dead, just like Dresden '45
