On the latest episode of The Spark Parade, Sasha Alex Sloan discusses how the songwriting on her new album, Me Again, was inspired by the FX limited series Fleishman Is in Trouble. Listen above or wherever you get your podcasts.

Sloan connected with the series’ themes of facing middle age, the breakdown of relationships, and the pressures put on women to be all things at once. So much so, that it gave the expression, “Secure your own oxygen mask before you secure the children’s” new meaning, eventually inspiring Sloan to write the track “Oxygen Mask.”
