John and Ben sit down with all three members of the pioneering Swedish stoner rock band, Blind Dog, to discuss their 1999 debut album, The Last Adventures of Captain Dog.  Comprised of guitarist Joakim Thell, drummer Thomas Elenvik, and bassist/vocalist Tobias Nilsson, Blind Dog began making riff-heavy underground rock well before bands like Kyuss, Monster Magnet, and Queens of the Stone Age had become household names.  
Over 20 years later, the band reflects on their early days and the recording sessions for Last Adventures and begins a discussion of the album's key moments; a discussion to be continued in Part Two of the interview, available March 22, 2022 at https://greatestthingpodcast.com and on all major podcast platforms.
