Show Notes

On this day 10 years ago, Destroyer shifted gears and broke through on their ninth album, *Kaputt*. What does its vision of bohemian America mean to us today? Do its soft rock influences still feel risky or bold? And does Dan Bejar know that if he signed up for TikTok and posted his haircare regimen he could get a billion likes? Dillon and Trevor set out to answer all these questions and more on the sixth episode of preTENtious.
