On this week’s episode of Messing with the Master, Matt, Joey, and Kristen travel to a (sonic) desert garden in Taos, New Mexico, to explore Tori's sophomore album Under the Pink. Joey explains how Tori Amos turned him gay, Matt recalls how a Drag Queen at the Gold Coast brought Tori into his life, and Kristen discusses being emotionally unavailable as the Heterosexual-in-Residence. Themes of queer identity, womanhood, betrayal, and romance are explored.

We’re introverted—but when it comes to Tori Amos, we’re always willing to discuss. Endlessly, in fact. On this podcast, three lifelong Tori Amos fans explore her vast catalog through deep dives, re-imaginings, and thoughtful playlists. Introverted but Willing to Discuss Tori Amos is an ever-evolving conversation about Tori’s music, legacy, and what keeps us coming back, nearly 30 years and hundreds of songs later. Hosts: Kristen Keys, Matt Mazur, Joe Vallese.
