On our most exciting episode of Nothing Urgent so far, we have reporter and author of This Machine Kills Secrets, Andy Greenberg, who was responsible for cracking an interview with the Dread Pirate Roberts of the Silk Road. Don't know what any of those words mean? Think free market drug trade meets a potential Oprah-like empire, and you're well on the way to grasping it. Then, Chris Robbins and Derek Evers get a chance to chat with Syd Butler of Frenkiss Records and Les Savy Fav about the band, the label, and a juicy feud.
