Back in May,&nbsp;<a href="https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fuproxx.com%2fmusic%2fryley-waker-deafman-glance-interview%2f&c=E,1,4CC3DPwLAYvdiesrT-0NKfz_GDcGY5fS_HL0_YaRfuL5qTh-XbjGq2LnoLtp4PCgR_IxbeSX700B-VNLC4rJtzx23TyHGkd1T9Iiafb_&typo=1">I interviewed the hilarious and talented singer-songwriter Ryley Walker</a>&nbsp;about his very good recent album,&nbsp;Deafman Glance.&nbsp;But one of the most memorable parts of the conversation was a tangent about Christian rock, which had been a part of both of our lives as teenagers growing up in the midwest.&nbsp;Ryley mentioned an album I hadn't thought about in years but had heard a lot in high school, dc Talk's 1995 double-platinum smash&nbsp;Jesus Freak.&nbsp;Clearly, this was a topic worth exploring in greater detail, so I called Ryley up and did a deep dive into an album that doesn't get mentioned much in official histories of '90s alt-rock, even though it was a touchstone for millions of semi-rebellious, church-going kids.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
