This week, Coco Kinnon of Winona Fighter joins me for an in-depth conversation centered on the band’s debut album, My Apologies To The Chef. We take a track-by-track deep dive into the record, unpacking the stories and creative process behind songs like “JUMPERCABLES,” “Subaru,” “HAMMS IN A GLASS,” “I’M IN THE MARKET TO PLEASE NO ONE,” “ATTENTION,” “Swear To God That I’m (FINE),” and “DON’T WALLOW.”

We also dig into the visual side of the band’s world, including the stories behind Winona Fighter’s music videos, the now-legendary “girl pit” that erupted during their 2024 Aftershock Festival performance, and the meaning behind the album’s title. Along the way, Coco talks about pulling double duty on the record as both the band’s lead singer and drummer, and how that unique dynamic shaped the sound and energy of the album.
