Welcome to ’60 Minutes or less’ - the podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast - where for episode 49, we’re pleased as punch to feature an interview with smooth operators Julien Ehrlich and Max Kakacek a.k.a. Whitney!
House favourites at Birthday Cake For Breakfast HQ, we find their laid back, retro-tinged vibes are best enjoyed on a sunny Sunday afternoon with a run of coffees. Across four studio albums - plus a collection of covers - Whitney have very much been tickling our fancy, so it was a boon to talk to the pair before the release of their new album ‘Small Talk’.
We caught up with Max and Julien over Zoom in early November 2025, the day before the release of latest album, ‘Small Talk’, with the conversation jumping between weed gummies and hot dogs to a punk band side project and reacting to record reviews.
With Max and Julien being in different rooms with different wi-fi connections and microphones, they come in a little hot sometimes (with the occasional car horn in the background appearing for good measure). You’ll no doubt settle into it though.
