After a brief three-way chat between Mike, Sam and Ken Friedman (the co-owner of the Spotted Pig), Mike and Sam are left alone to chat about the history of R.E.M, what went into creating their newest album, "Accelerate", and Mike's personal life outside the band. Mike and Sam also talk details behind the making of R.E.M's three new music videos, "Living Well is the Best Revenge", "Supernatural Superserious", and "Hollow". The two chatterboxes end the dinner with a first kiss and a promised second date.
