July 17, 2026:
Eric Schenkman, guitarist and co-founder of the Spin Doctors, joins us for a raw, honest look back at nearly four decades of the band.
He takes us back to the moment he first heard the unmastered version of “Kryptonite,” driving home through a snowstorm — “the best feeling I can ever remember.” From there, the conversation goes deep: the pressure that shaped “Turn It Upside Down,” why he walked away from the band, what brought him back seven years later, and how “Face Full of Cake” became one of his favorite Spin Doctors records.
If you’ve ever loved the Spins, this is the conversation you’ve been waiting for.
