About this episode

Hayden Pedigo and Chat Pile discuss their unexpected friendship and collaboration despite their different musical styles.

The day Hayden Pedigo moved to Oklahoma City, he messaged Chat Pile, a metal band that puts Oklahoma front and center on their albums. And despite their wildly different genres, they found they got along, watching movies and going to shows together. Hayden Pedigo is known for beautiful acoustic guitar. While Chat Pile songs are full of noise and growled lyrics. In this episode, they talk about how they met, what it was like working together, and how the album is still shocking even for Pedigo to listen to.
