Welcome to the show.

Congratulations.

It is officially out, because it's at midnight.

Now the album's out.

It's released in the world.

It's in the world.

This is it.

Yeah.

I'm, uh...

I'm excited.

I'm nervous.

I've been name-searching myself all evening.

You really are?

No. But you're having a great time right now.

You have a new album.

You have a new documentary.

You're gonna be on Saturday Night Live.

Um...

And you're about to go on a huge stadium tour this summer.

We have a lot coming up.

I'm booked and busy right now.

You are booked and busy.

By the way, the tour is already breaking records.

I want to say that you're the first artist to play four consecutive nights at Fenway Park.

And you not only...

Not only that, you already sold them out.

Yeah.

You sold them out.

Boom!

Let's go!

Hi, man.

I, uh...

How does that feel?

It feels good.

I feel like Drew Barrymore in Fever Pitch.

Oh.

The best movie ever made.

Yeah.

I did recreate that scene the last time I was there.

I sprinted across the outfield.

Yeah, spongy.

Yeah, oh, yeah.

Took it all in.

Dude, it's the greatest.

It's one of the coolest places to ever be.

And what a great city.

I mean, everyone...

I mean, you've done Fenway before, right?

We did two Fenways.

Last year was the most unbelievable moment of my life.

Like, we stood up on the Green Monster and played a set-up there,

and my family was there,

and everyone I knew came.

It was amazing.

You do stuff like that.

You sell out a stadium.

But then, like, ten years ago,

didn't you, like, you sold 77 tickets to a concert?

Yeah, and that was a big deal for me.

That was, like, $80 profit after it was all said and done.

But I remember I used to, uh...

I used to use my mom's credit card to buy the remaining tickets that weren't sold out to my shows.

And, uh...

To just have a sold-out show?

I just wanted it to say sold out,

and so I would use my mom's card,

and she would get, like, a $500 charge.

She'd be like, what the hell happened?

And I'm like, well, I sold the show out, technically.

Your son's a star, yeah.

A lot has changed, for sure.

When did you start writing music and decided to make a career out of it?

I started writing music when I was nine or ten years old.

Um, yeah, I listened to the Beatles with my dad,

and, like, I had the Beatles songbook,

and then I started writing my own songs.

And they were all super sad and depressing,

so I don't know what was going on.

We went to the Bahamas.

I had a great childhood.

But...

You had to really pull from a different...

I don't know what was going on back then.

Something was happening within me that I still don't understand.

Uh, let's talk about, uh,

I want to talk about the documentary that was released last week on Netflix.

It's called Noah Kahn Out of Body.

It goes really deep into you and your family and the recording of the record,

but also very personal stuff.

Yeah, it was definitely a...

It was an amazing experience filming it

because I was just having conversations with my family that I might not have ever had without being prompted to by,

like, the folks filming.

That's interesting.

It was the releasing that I didn't like.

I was compartmentalizing the fact that it might ever come out,

And I was like, yeah,

something will probably happen in production that doesn't allow this thing to see the light of day.

And it kept getting closer and closer.

100

And it came out, and it was scary,

101

but also beautiful to see people connect with it and to draw their own connections with their family and their lives.

102

And it's been really special to see it out in the world.

103

Congrats.

104

Congrats on that.

105

Thank you.

106

One of your more popular songs,

107

of course, is Stick Season.

108

Yes.

109

From your last album.

110

In the film, you talk about how you wrote that song.

111

And it's a pretty interesting story.

112

Yeah, so I basically was just at this Airbnb,

113

and I was just putting songs on TikTok just to kind of see what they would do.

114

Um, I put a song,

115

like, a verse of Stick Season on,

116

uh, and basically just talking about how much I suck and how lonely I am,

117

uh, which is my almost always inner dialogue, which is great.

118

Uh, and then I took an edible and went to sleep.

119

And then I...

120

And I was...

121

Right before, like, I got started to kind of...

122

The edible started to kick in.

123

I started getting really insecure.

124

I was like, I'm gonna delete this,

125

no one's looking at it.

126

And then I...

127

The Edible really kicked in,

128

so I fell asleep before I could do anything.

129

Good.

130

And then I woke up the next morning,

131

and, like, all these people had commented on it,

132

and suddenly I was like, there's something here.

133

And that's kind of how the song started.

134

And it became this huge TikTok sensation, I guess.

135

Yeah.

136

And now you have to finish the song.

137

Yeah, and I basically, like,

138

I wrote the first verse and chorus in, like, 45 minutes.

139

And then once I found out that people liked it,

140

it took me a year and a half to finish it,

141

because I was like, now people care about it,

142

and I can't do anything good if people are watching, so.

143

Imposter syndrome was on full display,

144

but we eventually got a second verse down for it.

145

Is it tough to write all this stuff?

146

Because what album is this for you?

147

This is my fourth album.

148

A lot of music.

149

It's a lot of music.

150

Do you have writer's block, or do you ever...

151

Always.

152

I remember when I was 16 years old,

153

before I'd even released any music,

154

I had writer's block just on my own,

155

and I was the only person listening to the music.

156

I would, like, I would write a song,

157

and then I would cry to my mom,

158

like, I'll never write anything good again.

159

And that's been, like, following me around my whole career a little bit.

160

It's not funny at all.

161

No, no, it's just sad.

162

It's actually really sad.

163

But you keep writing great music.

164

You're getting great reviews for this album.

165

It's fantastic.

166

People have only heard a couple of songs,

167

but now it's out, but you're getting great reviews.

168

Congrats.

169

Thank you so much.

170

Yeah, it's been really cool.

171

Thank you.

172

You keep doing it.

173

You keep topping yourself.

174

You sell out Fenway, and now you sell it out four times.

175

Don't stop, dude.

176

Keep going.

177

I know.

178

There's got to be a ceiling to all this that I have to approach at some point.

179

No, no, you can't stop.

180

Your video for The Great Divide,

181

by the way, a lot of the Internet is talking because you're in the gas station here,

182

and you find yourself kind of a gas station connoisseur?

183

I feel like I'm like the Michelin guide for gas stations.

184

Thank you.

185

Yeah.

186

The Guy Fieri of gas stations, some might say.

187

Some might say.

188

I have a ranking system.

189

Uh...

190

Talk to me about it.

191

And look, okay, yeah, so it's basically,

192

like, you start with friendliness.

193

Like, if the person behind the counter will look you in the eye,

194

it's always a good start.

195

Oh, I like that.

196

Doesn't happen as much as you think.

197

Second is bathroom cleanliness.

198

Like, if I am going to get some kind of disease from walking into the bathroom

199

that puts you down pretty low in the rankings.

200

Yeah, sometimes you don't even want to touch the handle.

201

You're like, I'm gonna kick it open.

202

A Dyson fan is always good.

203

One of those fans where you don't have to touch the...

204

Those blades?

205

Yeah, the blades.

206

I don't know how they work.

207

But, yeah, Dyson fan is big.

208

And then, of course, I need some, like, deep-cut snacks.

209

I'm talking, like, those pickles and the weird juice.

210

I'm talking...

211

Yeah.

212

What are those?

213

Dude, I got a pickle once and I love gas stations as well.

214

I got a pickle in Kool-Aid.

215

What is...

216

I've never actually tried one of those.

217

What does it taste...

218

Does it just taste like a pickle?

219

It's not good.

220

I can't imagine.

221

It doesn't look very good.

222

But I do it again.

223

Oh, God.

224

In a heartbeat.

225

Yeah, I was like, I live to tell the story, yeah.

226

But what snacks are you talking about?

227

Like, the pickles, the Muddy Buddies,

228

um, Muddy Buddies, any kind of,

229

like, those cinnamon toast breakfast bars that they tried to pretend were healthy for a couple years.

230

I remember this.

231

I was like, but it says it's for breakfast.

232

It's like, that's just straight sugar.

233

800 calories, yeah, yeah.

234

Um, yeah, and then all sorts of different kind of Dr. Pepper.

235

They have the Dr. Pepper strawberries and cream one.

236

I really like that one.

237

Just some more deep cut stuff.

238

Lemon heads, grape heads, watermelon heads,

239

any of the heads are good.

240

Yes.

241

This is fantastic.

242

That kind of stuff.

243

Next time you come on,

244

we all want to talk about specific gas stations,

245

and we give them props.

246

Oh, yeah.

247

We'll give them shout-outs.

248

Congrats again on this album.

249

What's the vibe of it?

250

What can people expect in this one?

251

Ooh.

252

Yeah, it's pretty sad.

253

It's pretty, um...

254

I don't know.

255

If something's going wrong in your life and it's raining, I recommend...

256

Perfect!

257

Nothing more needs to be said.

258

Noah Kahn, everybody.

259

The Great Divide is available now,

260

and the documentary Out of Body is streaming on Netflix.

261

More tonight show after the break.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
