Popdose: Bob Mould’s ‘See A Little Light’
Interviewed by Will Harris on June 13, 2011

Interviewed by Will Harris on April 5, 2011

Given that Tina Fey has conquered television—first on Saturday Night Live, then with 30 Rock —and continues to make slow but steady headway on the big screen as well (the Tina trifecta consists of Mean Girls, Baby Mama and Date Night), it was only a matter of time before she decided to stake her claim in the print world as well.
