This interview is absolutely fantastic Drew. Patrick is a great interview, and this is definitely one of your best I’ve seen!!

🙏❤️🤘

[@tito.tarantula]

This was awesome. Pat Carney should start a podcast 🎙

[@paulotonedef]

I love any Black Keys stuff. It’s always excellent. The Matt Sweeney one with Dan Auerbach is gold, too. There’s not enough content. Thank God for their music.

[@mad_cat_1st]

The Black Keys on the Joe Rogan show was AWESOME. Hilarious and sublime at the same time.

[@dbsranchr]

@@paulotonedef I laughed my ass off when Dan kinda winced while Matt was trying to learn how to play slide. 🤣🤣🤣

so cool when the members of principled/great bands are equally interesting characters and openly share who they are w us fans...

[@glynmatthews678]

I could listen to Pat all day long .... so infectious

[@glennbo76]

Great interview! Thank you so much! I'm a huge fan of The Black Keys!

[@DesignRhythm]

Refreshing to hear someone speak so straight forward, with no fat. Great interview. So proud of Pat + Dan - saw them 1st in 2003 and they never disappoint live or on their albums.

[@SabrinaG-sn8wo]

So much info my little baby music brain is doing a deep dive on the 10 artists he named in this incredible interview

[@JOHNCORNING]

Captain beef heart take note! Can totally hear it now in the Black Keys

[@shorerocks]

A great channel is when you listen to an interview even though not being the biggest fan of a band. Great guest. And what a speaking voice, ha ha. Thanks for doing this!

[@alanagottalottasay997]

I think Ive watched all or at least the majority of this channel and had that same experience many times here

[@williammontana3895]

Great interview in the beautiful iconic studio.

[@benjaminlehmanphotography]

Just got done taking studio session photos at Suma Records! Was an awesome experience and everyone there was cool. Had no idea the BKs had recorded there.

[@katiec6935]

THIS IS FCKING AWESOME!!!! #THEBLACKKEYS ARE MY FAVE!!

[@MXP250]

Patrick is a great storyteller

[@thorvald6730]

Best interview of Carney yet!

[@emmanuelcamacho1921]

It's like having a bigger brother. Pat's stories gives you so much insight

[@isaacburdiss]

Pat is cool. He is very nice and responsive to his fans - I've messaged him a couple times! I hope to meet TBK one day - I've been a major fan since age 3.

[@analogalchemy]

Fantastic.

[@blakestever2788]

That was awesome to listen to. I could listen to Pat talk for hours. Excited to hear what they're working on!

[@chadscherbring3112]

Great interview!! Thanks for sharing!

[@waskerbasket9601]

Great interview

[@sspbrazil]

The whole thing he talks about Akron being a place you are used to losing is the same way I feel about coming from the Detroit area and I am 56, you aren’t born to win, when you win you feel guilty, that never goes away. Your 40’s are nothing, wait until you hit your 50’s, it’s a whole different game man.

[@vincentparker2129]

How cool would a black keys record hang podcast be

[@matiasruda]

Pat Rules

[@robjohnston7464]

Name drops Pavement... Nice! In the 90's Beck and Cake hit me fast, then did not discover My Bloody Valentine & Pavement till much later. Still listening to all these bands today. Took the Pavement to Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks path too. Check out SM & The Jicks album Mirror Traffic produced by Beck. Been getting a bigger appreciation for Black Keys in the last few years. Music done right! Great interview.

7:09 Dang, I didn't know Ike turner was still alive. And that his future death date will be in 2027 😂

[@sunsetsoundrecorders]

Was there a typo?

[@_Ike]

​@@sunsetsoundrecordershaha yeah, it said "Ike Turner 11/5/31 - 12-12-27" 😂 just a funny little typo

[@duchampsrook]

The “Do you believe in God?” question ended this interview for me. Couldn’t watch past that. LOL. I grew up in Akron and I’m 8 years or so older than Pat but got to see them in tiny bar in downtown Akron around 2001-ish? Amazing show. Glenn Swartz opened for them. Wow. One of my buddies told me Pat washed dishes at the Mustard Seed back-in-the-day. ‘95? Probably ran into Dan at Record Exchange on Market Street more than once looking for Jon Spencer Blues Explosion CDs. Stoked for the new record.

Maybe check date on your Ike Turner photo. He passed in 2007, not furturistic 2027.

Wait!!! Stop traffic!!!!! Hold the press!!! There was a mistake!! This channel is a scam!!

[@toddj9548]

5:04: I believe he’s referring to the Dunning-Kruger effect. I think.

What kind of drums did you play? *Tampax or Mapex something like that.

[@grimmertwin2148]

You should hear what he says on the first JRE interview with the Black Keys. Here's one for you. Nuclear powered superyachts. Fully armed. Who owns them? You'll have to listen lol

[@richardheinz]

So Ike Turner died in 2027? 11/5/31. Born November 5th 1931. What does 12/12/27 mean?

[@boeschdavid]

It's called the Dunning-Kreuger effect when the least skilled people over-estimate themselves three most. There. It was bugging me too.

[@figgettit]

Akron is truly an incredible dump.

​@@sunsetsoundrecorders Pick up a paper route or something if money's tight. Don't take it out on your audience. Telling your viewers to just "get premium" to avoid your nonstop advertisement onslaught is a bit weird and greedy. But anyhoo I was just passing by. I'll see myself out.

Funny, because no one else sounds like them and they never miss.

You have to get premium - it's like .35 cents a day. Haven't seen a commercial in years.
