**Bryce** (0:00)
This is a Triple J podcast.

**Gracie Abrams** (0:08)
Like A Version is biblical.

**Bryce** (0:28)
We just wanted to do the sexiest shit we've ever seen.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:33)
This is like a version.

**Gracie Abrams** (0:34)
It's iconic. This is a big deal for me.
On Triple J.

**Bryce** (0:37)
Yes, sir. Friday morning. It is Bryce and Concetta and we are going wild. We're rolling out the red carpet. We're talking international. We got celebs in the building, man. We're talking Gracie Abrams is here to do a Like A Version for the first time. Welcome.

**Gracie Abrams** (0:51)
Hi, thank you for having me.

**Bryce** (0:53)
This is crazy for us. You're like a real big shot, you know?

**Gracie Abrams** (0:56)
That's not real.

**Bryce** (0:57)
No, no, no, you're just a girlie to me.

**Gracie Abrams** (0:59)
We're just all friends in this house, let's be honest. I think it's exciting because we spoke to you literally at the top of last year.

**Bryce** (1:05)
And we, you know, it was via Zoom.

**Gracie Abrams** (1:08)
The album was our feature album.

**Bryce** (1:10)
It was like so early into our, I don't know. We just started together.

**Gracie Abrams** (1:14)
Yeah, we just started together. Well, you guys are so supportive. It's like insane. I'm just happy to be in the same room now. That's what I mean. It's like so nice to physically be together. Thank you for having me back.

**Bryce** (1:22)
For real. I heard you like to hit the vintage shops when you first hit a new place.

**Gracie Abrams** (1:26)
Yes.

**Bryce** (1:27)
Has that happened yet in Australia?

**Gracie Abrams** (1:28)
Not yet, but we've gotten some recommendations that I'm dying to go to. So it's on the top of my list of priorities.

**Bryce** (1:34)
Is there like something that stood out?

**Gracie Abrams** (1:37)
What was the best find you've had? Oh, vintage?
Man, oh man. Well, nothing from here yet, but again, I'm like dying to go. I've gotten some good shirts that I typically get oversized things that I end up sleeping in. So it's kind of this funny, like no one sees them. I sleep in them, and that's the extent.
But maybe I'll find something here that I can wear on stage or something like that. That's always the goal.

**Bryce** (2:03)
There is actually one piece of clothing I wanted to ask about. I don't know if this is private or not.

**Gracie Abrams** (2:08)
Probably not. A MacBook.

**Bryce** (2:10)
Well, that's good, because I saw someone was wearing a hat that said Gracie on it.

**Gracie Abrams** (2:15)
Yes.

**Bryce** (2:15)
Is that someone in your team?

**Gracie Abrams** (2:16)
That is. That's merch that we had sold. Oh, I was gonna say, it looks so cool. You can have as many as you'd like.
Yeah, anything ever. Anything ever.

**Bryce** (2:26)
I actually was fully looking at that and going-

**Gracie Abrams** (2:28)
It's a good, it's a trucker hat.

**Bryce** (2:29)
It's hard. Yeah.

**Gracie Abrams** (2:30)
Thank you.

**Bryce** (2:31)
This guy, right, specifically, I mean, you're wearing one now. Big trucker hat guy.

**Gracie Abrams** (2:35)
Just the wrong one today, that's all.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:36)
Yeah, yeah.

**Gracie Abrams** (2:39)
Just kidding.

**Bryce** (2:39)
I guess I need it, because the curly hair can get, in this weather, it's quite humid, so it gets a little pubic, you know what I mean?

**Gracie Abrams** (2:45)
I'm learning about that, having just cut my hair off recently in this weather.

**Bryce** (2:51)
The Gracie hat's coming in handy.

**Gracie Abrams** (2:54)
Yes, exactly.

**Bryce** (2:54)
Yeah. Would you ever wear your own merch?

**Gracie Abrams** (2:58)
To sleep.

**Bryce** (2:59)
Yeah, right.

**Gracie Abrams** (2:59)
Not the hat, though.
Not that, though. I do love that hat, though. I would, I think it's also fun. My cousin Abby designs all of it, so it's like, I wish, if it didn't have my name on it, I would be wearing it in the streets.

**Bryce** (3:11)
I think it's just YouTubers that wear their own name merch, you know what I mean?

**Gracie Abrams** (3:15)
Yeah, I have a podcast, obviously not to the same level, but I just made this one-off shirt for me and my friend. It's our podcast. One-of-one, and I wear it to bed, and then sometimes I'll roll out of bed, come to work, and people like stare at the shirt because my face is, and I don't. That's a move.

**Bryce** (3:28)
I forgot, and they're like, what is that merch?

**Gracie Abrams** (3:30)
You should never stop doing it. You specifically should always do that.
You can pull it off. Oh my god, I just wanna cuddle you, but babe, we need to get into this Like A Version.
