5 Things I Learned About Jack White...

...from this installment of Marc Maron’s WTF podcast:

  1. If he really had to, he could still reupholster a chair.

  2. Deciding that he needed to learn to cut loose while on tour, he started antiquing.

  3. He owes his success to a fanatical interest in his field…

  4. …and an obsessive work ethic.

  5. The name of his former band The White Stripes is pronounced whitestripes, accent on the first syllable.

Whitestripes.
