He's very intelligent, articulate, very funny and seems like a good guy. He looks comfortable, clearly likes Lars. He's a not a bad dude. I think the small percentage of knucklehead Tool fans is why he reacts the way he does. I've changed my mind about you Mr. Keenan 👏👏👏

He wasnt being pretentious, he actually created something from the soul. That is hard to lug around in front of thousands of strangers.

He lets people speak, and doesn't do what a lot of hosts do and try to colour themselves and talk about themselves. He is totally immersed in the subject matter, loves music. He's a true fan, always has been. That's cool.

    Amazing at how profound, and how blatantly obvious the enormous impact of having an actual artist (Lars) interviewing another artist (Maynard), and the difference it makes towards the overall success of content, compared to the typical radio dj, podcast host, or average fan that's usually conducting the interview.

    Very impressed with both of them. Couldn't imagine being Maynard and actually sitting down to talk about his lyrics/songs. Sometimes the method and the feedback and the result is the last thing you want to express when you're tied up in the process of something! Fortunately many fans of many of his projects are glad he did. Thanks to them & their good attitudes!

    If you think about it, Lars is basically one of the best people who you could ever have interview Maynard. They are both part of a Mega-Band (which are a dying breed in the new age of social media), they are both quite a bit self centered yet aware of it. They have a lot in common and it makes it easy to talk. Maynard was the most relaxed I've seen him in an interview

    8:22 Maynard is probably the only vocalist I've heard mention he let's the music tell him what to do. It makes so much sense why everything he does couldn't be done by anyone else. When I did songwriting I struggled so hard to make songs work. Because I would force a topic or emotion on a song that was telling me to do something else. I love it.

    I stumbled upon this shortly after watching Maynard's interview with Rick Beato. I like how he describes writing in each band as having a different conversation. As an emotional musician that just makes perfect sense. Weird because I'm quite the Metallica fan, but this is my first time listening to Lars' show, here today. He and Maynard appeared to have good chemistry, enabling a cool and comfortable conversation for them both. I'm ready to listen to more of Lars now for sure.

    I realize that both these guys are EXTREMELY SMART, very special and WAY ahead of thier time.
