Ben Blackwell is back! As the calendar year 2021 draws to a close, we here at the Third Men Podcast are once again on a mission to look back at the music, art and output from Third Man Records over what turned out to be a hopeful but complicated 12 months. As the announcement of a new Jack White (series of) album(s) alongside dates for a new tour filled our hearts with JWIII excitement, a slew of releases from both new and legacy artists alike within the TMR stable maintained our collective spirits during a tumultuous year packed with hope, despair, joy and music. In this special retrospective, 5-time-returning guest Ben Blackwell (co-founder and co-owner of Third Man Records) joins us to detail the highs, sighs and really-tries of the year of our lord two thousand and twenty one...and teases a glimpse of what's in story for 2022. Does Jack White have a future in the NFT business? Who assembled the TMR London releases? What restaurant did Blackwell buy Jenny Lewis dinner in during this past year? The answers to those questions and much more await you in this special 2021 retrospective, and we’d like to extend a huge thanks to Mr. Blackwell for not only appearing once more on the show but for all the wonderful art he helped bring into the world this year. Cheers to Third Man, and cheers to 2022 — Happy New Year, everybody!
