That vocal harmony outro of "Feelin' This" is one of my all time favourite bits of music, crazy to hear that it was essentially a happy accident by the engineer.
Here I am thinking I was the only one! I used to slow it down on windows media player and crank my headphones and just listen to it over and over. Blink 182 is a special band.
What I appreciate most about this is the fact that it’s one continuous shot/conversation. So many videos now a days are chopped up and heavily edited for purposes of making things more interesting for the viewer, but I really dig that you just hit the record button and vibe together. Makes it feel much more genuine. Mark and Jim- thank you both for being such a big inspiration to so many of us
Hey... Dont write yourself off yet.. It's only in your head, you feel left out or looked down on. Just do your best... Do everything you can. And dont you worry what their bitter hearts are gonna say. Live right now!! Yeah just be yourself, it doesnt matter if its good enough for someone else. - These lyrics got me through ages 15-35, Im still 35 and dont plan on stopping. Thanks Jimmy
@@brettf5840 Billy has finally started to age... It was bound to happen eventually. It's officially happened. This Jimmy eat world did must've lived pretty clean and healthy.
Blink182 got some of the best songs ever so catchy so much passion, don't need to shred, shredding like bullet time it's a neat trick but the movie needs to be awesome
The more I dive into Jim's podcasts and listen to them more deeply, the more I appreciate what a great person Jim is. I don’t quite understand some of the people commenting here who seem to have an issue with Jim talking too much… Maybe it’s because I personally LOVE people who are big talkers ;) Jim is definitely chatty, but he’s also incredibly genuine, honest, and sensitive. I’d give a lot to meet him in person and just chat about music, life, everything. Jim, you are incredibly inspiring. ❤
I consider "Sweetness" to be the greatest rock song of this century, so getting just that little nugget from Jim @12:00 alone makes this new podcast worth it, not to mention everything else. Beautiful.
Same. I still have the confetti Green Day shot out at the crowd and the blink program. I believe Kut U Up was on a few dates, along with Saves The Day.
Wow, this is my new favourite thing! Live sound engineer here, long time fan of both their bands and since lockdown I have gotten into podcasts. Go Jim! I have so many guest whishes. Billie-Joe (Green Day), Fat Mike (NOFX), Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters), Deryck (Sum41), Chino (Deftones), Corey (Slipknot)...
This is such an interesting dynamic. You'd think since they come from the same era, became popular around the same time, and even toured together that their aesthetic would at least be somewhat aligned. Jimmy Eat World has always been a really authentic working band, always touring, always respected and always putting out killer albums, and I think that comes from maintaining that hands-on, DIY approach (even thru the major labels). Blink 182 on the other hand, is such an enormous enterprise that just by virtue of having Mark's voice on it, makes it a Blink song, even if they have a lot of people touching the songs before they go out these days. Not saying one is better than the other, I just really appreciate the dynamic and forthrightness of the process with these dudes! Also: JIM'S GOTS KIDS?!
I remember my local radio station announcing it when Jim first became a dad... when I was in college... 16 years ago. 😅 Tell me, does that look like the face of a career rocker with a 16 year old kid?
Just randomly stumbled upon this and had to give it a listen. Xfest was one of my first big concerts and Blink, the Offspring, 30 seconds to mars were headlining. Didn't know Jimmy eat world would be there as one of the openers and I really only ever heard the middle and sweetness on the radio and I liked those, but they absolutely killed it. All the other bands were fine before them, but they really kicked off the night. One of the best bands I've seen live. The offspring kept that going, and unfortunately 30 seconds to mars really killed the vibe with an acoustic Rhianna song, which is fine, just not the night for it, and they just totally lost the crowd for their set. Blink brought it back around though and made it all worth, lol. One of the best events of my life thanks to these to guys and their bands.
I have a feeling that this podcast is gonna be really inspirarional to Jim and after all these talks he’s gonna bring so much to the studio. I fucking love it, thank you so much Jim!
I have the red one. The other guitarist in my main project has the black one and I have a friend who just recently got the white one, just need a natural to complete the set! I’ve toyed around with the idea of finding a natural and having it painted a unique color, maybe down the road.
I'm a sober (now) artist, I get it , I've struggled with heroin addiction, brought on by having RA and Lupus and being on pills since I was a kid. I subscribed to the belief that I needed to create and even surmount my wounds, then cauterize it and open them again. It was a gnarly time, lost my thumb, using a soldering iron when I was loaded. But, I created a lot. In sobriety, sometimes I feel like there's not enough chaos, or that reflection on my past and not still living it, but documenting makes me a hypocrite... Idk. It's cool to see your idols break down their process, especially when they've also gotten straight. 🤘💜
I saw Blink 182 in 2017 i think. Best concert at the festival, felt like they genuinely had fun on stage and that translated to the audience. At least how it felt to me. One of the best bands to grow up to
Honestly, this conversation helps a lot. I struggle every day thinking those things Mark said, those toughts "this song sucks/this will never work / you suck at this" i mean it may be truth, but you at least must give yourself a chance to proove those little voices wrong
Honestly, I could watch these two chat all day long about this stuff. So cool to hear about the thought process behind the song-writing. Can't wait for more episodes.
Jim! This is great! I'm so excited you're doing this. A. My favorite two rock artists of all-time chatting in the first episode?? Are you kidding? B. I'm a hobby song writer myself. Super stoked to see more of these vids.
These guys seem to share a unique relationship which is I think is in between between being 'best friends' and 'friendly colleagues.' I didn't realise these types of relationships existed. It's very inspiring.
Two of my favorite people talking about one of my favorite subjects. Please do more! You both made the soundtrack to my life. Still do! Love everything you do.
Just the kind of content I love to find: songwriters discussing the songwriting process. Thank you! Would love to hear of the origin story/writing process of 555, btw. Cheers
2 of my most favourite bands, how amazing you guys are, thank you for not stopping to make and playing music for us people! A collaboration song by you both would be incredibly mind-blowing!
Thanks Jim & Mark. I loved this conversation. So refreshing hearing two of my favourite artists talk about the creative songwriting process. It also gave us mere mortal fans a bit of a sneak peek behind the curtain of the more common press interviews, which always cover the same topics and questions. This was so real and genuine. Thanks for creating this and I look forward to future episodes. I'd love to hear similar episodes with Tom Delonge and Travis Barker, just because I'm a massive Blink fan. I'm busy getting back into recording my next album and this interview inspired me tremendously. Much love from Cape Town, South Africa.
I have to say. This, Jim, is by far one of your best ideas. I mean, don't get me wrong- 555 was brilliant. But to get to really listen to some of my favorite artists (and you) share thoughts and opinions is meaningful and entertaining. It makes me appreciate you and Jimmy Eat World's music more. So, thank you.
God damn, thats exactly where the pivotal shift in sound came. Definitely liked the songs they wrote before studio way more. Amazing chat! Both such amazing artists
Thank you Jim for sharing with us your creative process and the struggle that comes with having your emotions and your career so intertwined. It's really interesting and it takes courage to be vulnerable like this.
This was such a beautiful well-articulated conversation between two extremely talented musicians. I love how humble and thoughtful you both were with each topic, I feel grateful to have watched this! I’ve been a huge fan of blink for years now, and with their current comeback and the after math of Mark’s health scare, this was a very inspiring video to watch. Travis is my favorite because I’m a drummer, but I’ve always had this strange soft spot for Mark - you can just tell he loves music and being creative, and he seems so down to earth despite being such an influential rock star. Great video!
That was absolutely Brilliant! I can totally agree with the Handwriting thing Im the same thanks so much Mark & Jim...look forward to seeing the next episode!
I've always wanted Jimmy Eat World to release an experimental heavy metal album. I've heard rumors that they started as a Metallica cover band. Either way I will be a fan forever.
11:45 this comment about reviewing voice notes is spot on. I wish we could record thoughts, because recording complex song structure ideas when they arrive is WILDLY difficult to articulate via voice into a voice memo app or recorder!
Marry them, love them, accept them, merge with them...it’s your shadow calling you, your high self whispering your name...awake to realize they belong in your life ...die once live forever , and the art you create will be everlasting and ever flowing...it’s in us all. Just go into the darkness to find your real light 😈🖤😈
Their tail end of the conversation reminded me of something a customer told me when I worked at an online retialer for musical equipment. He said "With modern technology, anyone at any time, can record any type of music, and release to to the masses. The only down side is that anyone at any time, can record any type of music, and release to to the masses." which I thought was hilarious at the time, but realize he's right. No one has any excuses any more as to why they don't record their music ideas. I mean most of the bands I grew up with are now doing their own thing in a personal studio and doing some really great things.
This was around 2007-08, I had a songwriting publishing deal and I was fortunate enough to get an opportunity to write and record a song with Justin. I didn't get to spend much time with him, but he was a nice dude and had a lot of energy.... probably as you'd expect. I remember coming into the studio and he had a part he was already showing the producer and then we wrestled it all into a decent song. The song turned out ok, and we didn't become best friends, but he complimented me on my Arrested Development shirt and I forever get to say that one of my favorite singers sang a chorus I wrote.
As an artist/designer my attitude is always make whatever you feel like then some time in the future you can go back and categorise it later. There is always going to be a common thread through different pieces you pick up on retrospectively, not necessarily in the moment. Same goes for songs, trying to limit yourself to be "on brand" is the quickest way to creative jail (do not collect $200.)
As someone who is not in the music business, this is very interesting. I always say that making games and making rock music is very similar and even the videogames business and the music business share a lot of similarities. This interview just pretty much confirmed that. Even the creative process is so the same. Really interesting interview. More plz
Also, another guest I would love is Pete Wentz. His lyrical style is so unique and they’ve produced a million hits. I’m sure he’s got some great stories to tell.

Blink’s self-titled got me through 8th grade and Futures got me through 9th grade. Those years can be rough haha thanks for this 🙌
Dude me too! I wish there was a way to tell these guys what an incredible impact their music has made, without making it weird 😂
Futures?
@@CalebMersinger ummmm….. Futures is called Jimmy Eat World album.
@@peanutbutterisfu I don't listen to Jimmy eat world
must not have been that rough if those mediocre albums got you through it
That vocal harmony outro of "Feelin' This" is one of my all time favourite bits of music, crazy to hear that it was essentially a happy accident by the engineer.
Here I am thinking I was the only one! I used to slow it down on windows media player and crank my headphones and just listen to it over and over. Blink 182 is a special band.
Mark is looking more and more like a mad scientist lol
My two musical idols on one show? Erm yes, thanks
Same
The best!
I read that as "my two musical idiots" and I don't know why lol
@@peter9111 ditto
Right?!?
Would love to see Tom on here, he’s always cited JEW as an influence and apparently they played his wedding years back
Mark has always been my favorite member of Blink, so it’s always nice to see interviews with him.
Jim wearing glasses is clearly a ploy to try and make it look like he's aged. Great chat, looking forward to future episodes!
Yeah but we all know he's immortal. ❤️
He’s clearly a wizard or feeds on the blood of children. Maybe a lizard person?
@@ConnorDMoody OMG it's true, he hasn't freaking aged
What I appreciate most about this is the fact that it’s one continuous shot/conversation. So many videos now a days are chopped up and heavily edited for purposes of making things more interesting for the viewer, but I really dig that you just hit the record button and vibe together. Makes it feel much more genuine.
Mark and Jim- thank you both for being such a big inspiration to so many of us
Meanwhile, there are other commenters complaining that there's too much editing done.
Listening to Mark talk in depth about the Self-titled album gives me a stiffy. Absolutely amazing and unique record and I'm glad he's proud of it!
it's untitled tho
Untitled
@@heyimjoey same diff
"If you're not experiencing some level of crippling self doubt, you're just not doing it right"
Found my new mantra.
Mark, your hair looks like Cameron Diaz in Something About Mary when she puts the jiz in her hair.
Well, that's what he gets for putting jizz in his hair.
Man I think he needs more jizz tbh
Yess😂
dude needs to accept his age
@@near5839 what is it again?
Hey... Dont write yourself off yet.. It's only in your head, you feel left out or looked down on. Just do your best... Do everything you can. And dont you worry what their bitter hearts are gonna say. Live right now!! Yeah just be yourself, it doesnt matter if its good enough for someone else. - These lyrics got me through ages 15-35, Im still 35 and dont plan on stopping. Thanks Jimmy
Same here!
I love that story about Blink's untitled album being recorded at a family's house! That's where I listened to it the most...
I Think For The Next Guest, You Should Invite Tom Delonge
That would be fucking great.
Heck yes
YES Jimmy TOM Delonge Please Love your Show Jimmy Awesome 🤘🏼🎤😎🎶❤️
I thought the same thing!
Great idea
Gah, Jim, you are such a treasure. You are one of such a tiny group of songwriters I can even listen to anymore. Thanks for existing. You rock.
The ending of feeling this is a perfect showcase of what great songwriters these guys ended up becoming.
People will claim that certain musicians haven’t aged but i think Jim is hiding some secret formula from us here...
He sips from the fount of immortality while he eats his sourdough.
Him and Billie joe
@@eddieryan352 Billie has been aging lately
He also stopped drinking... 👍🏻
@@brettf5840 Billy has finally started to age... It was bound to happen eventually. It's officially happened. This Jimmy eat world did must've lived pretty clean and healthy.

jimmy eat world is one of my favorite bands ever, cool to get inside from Jim.
My favorite tour of all time, and the first time I saw JEW, was 2002 Pop Disaster Tour with Green Day, Blink 182, and Jimmy Eat World.
Was that with Kut U Up?
@@TheSummitCove I not sure exactly.
Same. I still have the confetti Green Day shot out at the crowd and the blink program. I believe Kut U Up was on a few dates, along with Saves The Day.
@@lastlettersny oh yeah, me, too! I wish I had kept more of the confetti, but I have some.
@@lastlettersny Saves the day was there instead of JEw when they played Grand Rapids MI 😔
I'm not even a songwriting person, just a normal fan, and this was a fucking blast to watch/listen to. And it flashed by. Can't wait for more!

Jim Adkins and Mark Hoppus.
Feel's like I've done got every gap in THUG just to unlock this interview. Seriously, awesome
This is such an interesting dynamic.

Also:
JIM'S GOTS KIDS?!
Disagree with your assessment of blink-182
I remember my local radio station announcing it when Jim first became a dad... when I was in college... 16 years ago. 😅
Tell me, does that look like the face of a career rocker with a 16 year old kid?
@@arvisjaggamar my man doesn't doesn't even look like he has a one year old lol.
I’ve been waiting for a podcast like this! And who better to host it than Jim!
When Mark sang the praises of "Goodbye Sky Harbour", my heart melted.
Just randomly stumbled upon this and had to give it a listen. Xfest was one of my first big concerts and Blink, the Offspring, 30 seconds to mars were headlining.

Mark looks like the crazy old guy that yells at you to get off his lawn. lol
These guys are my childhood
Legit, its insane to me that I can watch them just casually chat with each other!
They are currently my childhood (Im only 13)
This is really incredible. I love how absolutely massive bands in the scene still gives respect to Jimmy Eat World.
They go way back touring with each other
I have a feeling that this podcast is gonna be really inspirarional to Jim and after all these talks he’s gonna bring so much to the studio. I fucking love it, thank you so much Jim!
This ruled very hard. So stoked about this and can't wait for more.
Gotta love Hoppus rocking the "There's Something About Mary" hairstyle 😂
Dammit, Jim. You're making me want to buy your guitar now.
Do it, you won’t be disappointed, I love mine!

Not in a creative industry myself, but so much of this process discussion struck me as how even I work and plan for my business.
"My problems, they aren't problems."
Be glad they never will, Jim.
He quotes himself, so casually, then kind of smirks. I laughed so hard.
I have to say. This, Jim, is by far one of your best ideas. I mean, don't get me wrong- 555 was brilliant. But to get to really listen to some of my favorite artists (and you) share thoughts and opinions is meaningful and entertaining. It makes me appreciate you and Jimmy Eat World's music more.

Thank you Jim for sharing with us your creative process and the struggle that comes with having your emotions and your career so intertwined. It's really interesting and it takes courage to be vulnerable like this.
I had a good moment with you) thank you guys, really like this format, no stress.. it’s nice!

A LEGEND INTERVIEWING A LEGEND
Love the honesty and vulnerability.
Awesome guys!! Thanks for letting us in on the hang session. 🙏🏽💯😊
Ahhhh! Loved this! It’s always fascinating to me to see a small glimpse of another artists mind and thought process. Can’t wait for the next one!
This is the interview/ podcast that we all needed. Thank you my good sir!
11:45 this comment about reviewing voice notes is spot on. I wish we could record thoughts, because recording complex song structure ideas when they arrive is WILDLY difficult to articulate via voice into a voice memo app or recorder!
I love that this is a thing. As a songwriter and a fan this is so radical. Keep em coming!
One of my most cherished memories is going to Selma TX from Austin to see you guys play with Blink. Magical show.
So sad that we couldn’t see you play in the uk last month but I’d love to see more episodes of this podcast.
Very cool, look forward to the next one as well! Both really humble guys...
incredibly inspiring to hear these guys talk so honestly
So happy you are doing this.

Haha could you imagine that? You think they’d still be pop punk if he joined?
@@Youngmob24 I just think he could brought something interesting to the table as far as songwriting goes.
tom can't be replaced
I 100% agree. We'd have gotten so many better songs.

This is really great. Is there any chance for Justin Pierre on a later episode? I feel like that conversation would be excellent.

Yea I’m sure Pete has a bunch of homoerotic stories to tell for sure
Clifton Sneed yes Patrick is a amazing all around musician and he does great interviews
Two of my fav bands in one place!
