Medium Build, aka 35-year-old Nick Carpenter, joins us to talk about his new album 'King of Having Fun' and the evolution that brought him here. What starts off as a chat about his gold tooth winds up as a wide-ranging, earnest, honest, and very funny conversation covering his evangelical upbringing in Georgia, his hedonistic years in Anchorage, Alaska, his time in Nashville, his breakthrough 2024 album 'Country,' and some of the songs on his latest LP, including 'Perceived,' 'Feed the Boys' and 'Thank You, Cook.' Nick also gets into his complicated relationship with attention and acclaim, opens up about why he drank and his sobriety, and speaks candidly about the complicated line between embracing his queerness and feeling like he’s commodifying it, and so much more. This new record is his best yet, with that mindset reflected in an upbeat, high-def collection that still retains his ability to dig deep.
