"Burning Down the House" by Jonathan Gould. But there's a better, more "factual" one called "Once in a Lifetime" and the Chris Franz autobio "Remain in Love" (2020) is funny and a quick read too with stories about The Sex Pistols, Mick Jagger, Joe Strummer, XTC and the downtown NYC scene circa early 70s when they moved there from Providence, RI.

2025-09-02 08:42:17 +0000 UTCGreat ep and I vehemently agree with the love of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and I vehemently disagree on Bret’s swatting aside of Gremlins 2: The New Batch, possibly the greatest ever director taking the piss out of his own movie in the history of taking the piss out of your own movies. I mean come on, if you don’t like spider gremlin electric gremlin hooker gremlin and endlessly so on you probably aren’t the most fun person at parties. Oh yeah, Bret doesn’t go to parties… Still ❤️ you Bret.
