The Wonder of It All is a podcast about the blessings and curses of success. Sean Nelson, former lead singer of Harvey Danger, interviews artists (musicians, filmmakers, TV creators, actors, writers, etc.) about the ways their lives and careers were shaped by a conspicuous breakthrough, and how the experience changed their lives and careers for good and ill. The conversations aim for candid discussion of the way guests reacted to the opportunities and limitations afforded by their successes, and how—and if—they’ve made peace with the long shadow cast by good fortune.
Sean Nelson chats with Jacob Slichter, drummer of Semisonic, about how the band landed a mega-hit with 'Closing Time.' They discuss the implications of that fame, the state of the music industry, Jacob's books, Semisonic's recent tour, and what it really means to be a 'one-hit wonder.’
