245: Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rocket Juice & the Moon, Atoms for Peace)

Before attaining massive success with Red Hot Chili Peppers, Flea
was a wild child, roaming the streets of Hollywood. He and Joe
discuss: the unfamiliar vulnerability he faced when writing his
excellent memoir Acid for the Children; the cathartic experience
of translating traumatic memories to text; the spiritual
connection between jazz and punk rock; the seeming decline of
active listening; and the kind of connection he seeks with
drummers.
