Season 6, Episode 3: Alex Ebert on writing songs after a crisis of faith

This is our second conversation of Alex Ebert, famous for his hit songs from Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. We talk about some new music that comes from his meditations on death, and what he’s spent the last few years wrestling with, namely, a kind of crisis of faith of in the purpose of music. 

Heads up, copious explicit language is used.
