--------
The Black Keys recalled several notable incidents of their careers, including an opportunity to perform live on stage with the Rolling Stones - an encounter that band member Pat described as "humbling." They also dove into a controversial topic about streaming services, particularly Spotify, that draws the ire of artists due to what many see as unfair royalty payments. Pat shared a reveal from Spotify CEO Daniel Ek, who stated that as long as YouTube provides free access to music, Spotify would do the same. Furthermore, Pat expressed hopes for a more equitable payment structure in the future. As the conversation evolved, an old spat with pop star Justin Bieber resurfaced, where Bieber had told his millions of followers that Patrick should be slapped for a comment he had made. Both Pat and Dan reflected on this, sharing that they regret their heated responses and are more mindful of social media's power now.
