Yes, Dear Reader. We enjoy those ‘in depth’ interviews as much as anyone else. But – BUT – we also enjoy the lighter side of music, too. We simply cannot go on any longer without knowing that Remi Wolf once had to wear an eye patch as a child and has clearly spent at least some time looking at cow testicles. Here’s some off-topic questions to find out ‘more’.

What is your earliest memory?
I have two early ones, I don’t know which one came first. I went to this pre-school in San Francisco when I was 2 or 3, and I remember we had this insane day where we made miniature fish tanks for Swedish fish out of tiny baby food jars, and it was like my favourite thing that ever happened to me in my life. I was so hyped.
Also, the same day, we did a donut eating contest where they hung donuts from a bar, and we all had to try to eat the donuts on a string with our hands tied behind our backs. That was a big day.
Also, same pre-school, it was nap time, and I got poked in the eye by this kid DT. I remember having to go to the hospital, and I had to get a patch on my eye because he scratched my cornea.
