Call us elitist or snooty or even boring, but we admit it - we love National Public Radio (NPR) and their local affiliate KUT (90.5). And yo, it’s not just for intellects anymore. Where else can you hear the refined likes of Terry Gross juxtaposed with the crassness of the Beastie Boys? Yep. You guessed it – NPR, baby. Today’s esteemed guests on Terry Gross’s highly regarded interview format talk show “Fresh Air” were none other than Brooklyn’s own Beasties. Seriously, if you missed it, we suggest you kick back, put your feet up on the desk, and take a listen. It’s hilarious to hear Terry trying to process the Beasties’ responses while struggling to come up with questions that don’t make her sound completely and utterly clueless. Which, of course, she isn’t at all. Unless she’s dealing with a studio full of slow and low white-boy rappers.

How does it compare to the Terry Gross/Gene Simmons interview?

Well, the Beasties were much more coherent than Gene Simmons. IMO, that man is a freak! But I guess he has a shitload of money to show for it. Which is more than we can say.
nothing compares to the gene simmons interview.
