The Talkhouse, created by author Michael Azerrad (Our Band Could Be Your Life), gets musicians and filmmakers to comment on and review one another’s work. In their most recent podcast, the site brought together introspective Aussie-rocker Courtney Barnett and indie rock legend Kim Deal (of Pixies and The Breeders) to chat about artistic OCD, embarrassing lyrics, drinking, and the coolness of left-handed guitar playing, among other things.

Listen to the whole thing below, which includes Kim Deal’s impression of an “English person speaking French.”
