Text[edit | edit source]
Q: Hi.
A: Hi.
Q: Hi, Dean Ween.
A: Hi.
Q: Hi, hi there. On Episode 13, we talked about a Boognish, [and its] Satanic influences that it had on Ween. Tell me more about it.
A: Um, well, Boognish came to Aaron and I years back, and showed us our destiny, which of course is to kill small animals.
Q: Aaron is Gene Ween?
A: Uh, Gene Ween, yeah. And, just, we were inspired. To be specific, we were in typing class when it came to us, and [we] both saw him at the same time, out the window, standing in the courtyard of the high school. So, immediately, we cancelled all of our plans for that day, and when school ended, Aaron came over. And we put down what Boognish told us, on tape, in the form of music. And that was the birth of Ween.
