One of my favorite “brain candy” genres is celebrity memoirs. In all honesty, there are a lot of them that are… not that great. A little too self-aggrandizing. A bit too self-interested and pompous. But there are some that are an absolute delight to read, that somehow manage to be self-deprecating and insightful in equal measure.

Not too long ago, I overheard two people in a bookstore talking about a book in this genre. It was different, one that just from the description another reader gave, I needed to read. One that wasn’t so much of a memoir as it was the record of a conversation—an extended interview between two friends that covered everything from music, songwriting, life during a pandemic, the death of a child, drug addiction, the purpose of religion, and the possibility of hope.
