Tuna on Toast with Tom Delonge (UFO's, Blink 182 Memories, New Boxcar Racer, AVA, Mark Hoppus Love)

Tom Delonge joins Ted Stryker as they discuss Angels & Airwaves and how the new album LIFEFORMS came together...In the interview, Tom opens about about operating on the fringe for such a long time, the public questioning all is professional moves, from his departure from Blink 182 to "chasing aliens" to working with the US Government. Tom also discusses with Stryker his contract with the government in regards to a craft of unknown origin. Tom also talks about Blink 182 getting their record deal, the non-stop cycle Blink 182 was on and how that affected his personal and professional life. Tom opens up about his current relationship with Mark Hoppus, and how Mark's incredibly sad cancer diagnosis helped their friendship (episode was recorded just before Mark announced he was cancer free). Tom also tells a hilarious story of the time he approached an employee at Christopher Nolan's company Syncopy Films talking followed by his crazy encounter with Chris Nolan himself. The episode closes with a story about what happened when Blink 182's record company came to listen to the album Dude Ranch for the first time, and, how Tom deals with critics today.

Can I just thank you for the calm way you interview and how you actually let him talk, so that he gave us a piece of his mind this way? You asked all the right questions for him to give such answers to. This was such an interesting interview, easygoing and grounded but also deep and inspiring, while at the same time making me laugh and feel... at home. Without being cliché, I felt a lot of heart here from both of you, and it was beautiful. Thank you so much. In time I'm going to check out more of your videos, I have to sit with this one for a bit...

[@whiteelchapo3211]

My thoughts exactly. This guy gives a very nice and calm vibe when he interviews. Will definitely be listening for now on.

[@Pavel_Poluian]

Consider the use of "flying saucers" (UFOs) as a means of delivering atomic weapons. This is very important and relevant, due to the fact that air defense is sharpened against ballistic missiles and aircraft, and UFOs calmly overcome them. The risk threshold has decreased - an atomic war may begin. It was the phenomenon of such devices in the late 80s that frightened the leadership of the USSR. All these "UFOs over Krasnoyarsk", "UFOs over Perm" + the explosion of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant... Therefore, the leaders of Communist Party went to an honorable surrender... However, for 30 years, the Russian Federation has been able to bring its electrokinetic flying machines to mind, and now there is panic in the United States - unknown objects are flying over the territory of both NATO and the United States. They have something to be afraid of: such combat UFOs will successfully deliver nuclear bombs to decision-making centers and enemy missile silos, bypassing air defense. Americans were very scared of russian "flying triangles" and other unidentified phenomena, so the May meeting of the US Congress on UFOs was started in open mode, and then had to be classified. There are still no details in the media - what did the congressmen learn from intelligence? Now the situation is extremely tense, because "flying saucers", "triangles", etc. are very dangerous weapons. So, the threshold for starting an atomic war has dropped sharply, there is a real temptation to strike the first blow without fear of a response... Everyone in the world knows: UFO-secret spy equipment from the United States. The stories of witnesses are real, the collection of information about the passage of objects is real, but about aliens - speculation, which is supported by the disinformation of the cover spread by the special services. "Flying saucers" - earth technology. Secret technology-plasma propulsion panels, cells, rail-electron architecture. They are just located in the form of round zones around the perimeter and on the bottom of the device. From below and along the movement, a column of circular vortices is created - this is how the device flies... Find the material "UFO - it's made in the USA" on the Aftershock website or the video "Declassified UFO". There is also my book about this - "The Crown of Communication", read it. This is a spy technique. It is tested and used for various purposes. The pilots don't know all the secrets. Christopher Taylor Buckley wrote about this program in his satirical novel "Little Green Men". This is also said in the movie "Roswell: Final Declassification (History Channel)" - easy to find on WWW. Now there are such ships in Russia, of course. Because of their arrivals, hearings were held in the US Congress.

[@Thwagger]

I'm my opinion 'There Is' is one of the best songs ever written. Simple, catchy, pretty, doesn't over stay it's welcome. It's a perfect song!

[@Thwagger]

I saw Angels and Airwaves on their very first tour in Oklahoma City. They still had Ryan Sinn on bass (who absolutely did not fit in imo). He did an AvA-esque cover of 'I Miss You' that was really cool. I remember hearing 'Do It For Me Now' for the first ever at that show and being blown away by it. My favorite part was when the whole band left the stage for Tom to tell a story about a guy with a big dick and then he was joined onstage by David Kennedy with his acoustic guitar and they played 'There Is' and the whole time they were doing the song Tom was dancing around David and randomly pinching his butt trying to screw him up. It was hilarious

So when i first heard Euforia, I was reminded of Rush Tom Sawyer. I bet ILAN gets this because I know he respected Neil Peart as a great drummer/song writer.

I feel like Tom got way more humble and grounded in recent years. I remember getting to meet him at one of the Blink reunion shows and he wasn't this outgoing and friendly.

Anyone who gets seriously involved in the phenomenon becomes humbled. Didn't know he wanted to become a firefighter. I was one for 4 years.

Yeah, I honestly don't think he was all that happy during the reunion years; you could tell he felt creatively stifled. It's why I'm honestly okay if he never rejoins Blink, especially if it's better for his mental health in the long run.

What’s successful about being away from your family? What’s successful about not getting along with your bandmates and not having a real life?

This record hit so hard for me. I saw Angels last night in Boston and I felt that feeling that he was talking about wanting people to feel with this music. It was uplifting and gave me chills all over. This record, to me is the best work he’s done and I think a tribute to his influences with an Angel twist fit perfectly. I love the use of minor notes and synths. Time Bomb, Euphoria, Rebel Girl, Automatic, Losing My Mind, and Kiss and Tell we’re incredible live! Thank you Tom for your years of service to music!

Great interview. I'm so glad there is this form of interviewing nowadays, so that the interviewer can invite whoever he likes, because back when we only had TV interviews, I swear, most of the times they were the most boring thing ever, always the same questions about who produced the album or something, and rarely if ever you would get to see an interviewer who really loved the band and asked about the music itself and the band and what inspires them and all that. I really hope Tom knows what a big impact he and Blink182 had on a generation and I'm grateful I was there to see it all happen.

The fact that B182 is still putting out records to this very day makes the world a brighter place. The reason you are here when so many other artists from the 90s aren't is because in the face of all the negativity and criticism and changing tastes, you kept making music.

any time i hear a tom blink song, it instantly takes me back to a time where life was simpler and i didnt have a care in the world and didnt want to die every day and hate waking up, and as a musician i can absolutely understand his feeling of wanting to do better every time, but as a human being i think old blink was exactly what the world needed or at least exactly what i needed, like if it was any better or any worse it wouldnt have been so captivating or as influential as it is and it wouldnt have resonated with people as much. i feel the same way about boxcar, any time i hear "and i" i zone out to old memories of the best days of my life hanging out at the skatepark with my friends and then i come back to reality and i catch myself smiling. its like the whole time im listening, my shoulders dont feel so heavy

This is the first Tom interview I've watched since the Joe Rogan interview and it was good to hear Tom able to go a few minutes at a time without being asked about some super secret government things he either doesn't know about or simply can't comment on either way. That aside, Thank you Tom Delonge. I used to play the mark tom and Travis show on repeat with my guitar in hand and then later take off your pants and jacket and boxcar. I would play along with you guys for hours everyday, until I eventually started improvising over you, and that taught me so much about music. I don't wanna understate it you basically taught me guitar. Thank you.
