Matchbox Twenty's Rob Thomas and guitarist Paul Doucette join us in the studio to celebrate 30 years of their debut album, Yourself or Someone Like You! We're getting nostalgic, going back to their early days in Orlando, the breakup of Tabitha's Secret and how they morphed into M20, and the stories behind some of their biggest hits, including "Push," "3AM," "Real World," "Bent," and "Unwell." Plus, Rob reflects on his iconic collaboration with Santana, "Smooth," and the guys discuss how the music industry has changed since they first broke through in the 90s.
We also get into their differing opinions on "Push" appearing in Greta Gerwig’s ‘Barbie,’ the importance of communication (this does feel a lil’ like group therapy) in keeping a band together, the changing meanings of their songs, and what it takes to make music that stands the test of time. Plus, the story behind their debut album's title and artwork, some wild times in dark bars, and an update on Paul's head after an unfortunate encounter with a flying mic stand on account of Rob’s rockstar stage antics.
