<p>When guitarist Steve Selvidge isn’t touring with The Hold Steady, he’s home in Memphis with his extremely chill Maine Coon, Kumar, who likes to help assemble pedalboards. We investigate Memphis’s feline history, and Mary admits to almost getting carried away with this episode’s Quiz prize.

Plus: Introducing Steve & Steve, the cat-human supergroup the world has been waiting for.</p><br><p><strong>This episode is brought to you by our friends at Cat Amazing.
