Alison and Matt are old friends. He comes in the studio, crushes it. Awesome live performance. Check it out.

Adam Carolla (1:45)

Here, he's going to perform live for us. Last of the great pretenders is the name of the new album, available on Amazon and iTunes as well. You know what to do. I got questions because my good buddy, Popcat Goldthwait, actually directed one of his videos, so we can talk about that. Matt, I'll tell you what, you're all set up, so you tell us the first song we're going to hear, play it and then sit down and we'll chat.

Matt Nathanson (2:12)

Cool. So this is Kink Shirt, which is the song that Bob did the video for.

Adam Carolla (2:15)

Oh, great. Yeah.

Matt Nathanson, Matt, tell us who was backing you up so we can give him some credit too.

Matt Nathanson (5:31)

Mr. Aaron Tap on the singing and the acoustic.

Adam Carolla (5:33)

Nice job, Aaron Tap. Sounded fantastic. It was funny.

Aaron hit the bricks. Matt, have a seat.

I was, that was the song I was listening to on the ride in. And I thought it was the girl in the king's shirt. And I thought, is that a hockey sweater? Is she a King's fan? And then I thought, oh no. He said San Francisco, Bay Area of North, Sacramento Kings. I started doing them. I started trying to, you know, your brain frantically tries to connect dots.

Bryan Bishop (6:06)

She's a big Chris Weber fan.

Matt Nathanson (6:07)

She's a, she's a powerful woman. She like bench presses, like Volkswagen.

SPEAKER_8 (6:13)

So those fans are no joke, the King's fans.

Adam Carolla (6:15)

Yeah, but we were talking about the Come Dancing and the Lola Kings. Very nice, by the way. Sounded amazing.

Matt Nathanson (6:24)

Cool, it was fun.

Adam Carolla (6:25)

Yeah. Dawson gets a lot of credit for doing his mixing and setting everything up very nicely here.

Last of the Great Pretenders, yes.

Alison Rosen (6:35)

Sorry.

Adam Carolla (6:36)

That's all right, just giving a plug. Last of the Great Pretenders, it's available on iTunes and Amazon.

And yeah, ask a question, Alison, and then I want to hear about Bobcat.

Alison Rosen (6:45)

Is that song about masturbation?

Matt Nathanson (6:47)

Most songs are about masturbation. I mean, what's up, I'm a man.

Michael Lynch (6:52)

I mean, female too.

Matt Nathanson (6:53)

I mean, everybody, what part of it gives you the indication that there's masturbation? Like what's so overt?

Alison Rosen (6:58)

That I can't stop thinking about her and the mention of her in your imagination.

Matt Nathanson (7:03)

Let's talk just historically about the men you've dated.

SPEAKER_8 (7:05)

Oh, God.

Henry (7:07)

You guys are way back.

SPEAKER_8 (7:08)

Matt Nathanson (7:09)

That there's a chronic mastur- Have you dated chronic masturbators?

Henry (7:12)

My fiance Daniel.

Alison Rosen (7:15)

I feel like I've dated average masturbators.

Henry (7:17)

My fiance Daniel.

Adam Carolla (7:18)

Did you hear about the Aryan guy? You heard about him?

Alison Rosen (7:22)

No, that was post-Snowing. I accidentally went out with a white pride guy.

Adam Carolla (7:28)

What? Yeah.

Alison Rosen (7:29)

Hey, he just had pride in his Celtic heritage and also-

Bryan Bishop (7:34)

Yeah, he didn't hate other races. He just liked his a lot better.

Alison Rosen (7:37)
