Reverend Valentine on not giving a f*ck.
I'll be straight up with you: while every one of these interviews is unique, this one stands out in the sheer amount of laughing that happens and bizarre discussion points. Despite that (or because of it?), Rev makes some insightful points and I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I clearly did. And...you've been warned, there is plenty of cursing. In this conversation, we talk about:
