Following the 20th anniversary of their landmark album Leviathan, Mastodon members join Heggie to discuss Moby-Dick as a shared source of inspiration. Brooklyn composer and rocker Tamar-kali Brown adds her perspective, while metal aficionado and opera composer David T. Little moderates the conversation.
