Nardwuar’s appeal isn’t just that he does crazy research on the artists he interviews, but that even the artists in question are shocked by the depth. It’s enough of a trope that he has a canned answer when artists ask how he knows something: “You are ____, we have to know!” Not Chappell Roan. In his latest interview, posted December 16, Roan is entirely unfazed by Nardwuar’s research. “Battlefield Mall,” he says as a prompt, naming a childhood-favorite mall of Roan’s.
