Ben Kenney - ex-Incubus, The Roots
Tuesday, 12 May, 2026
This week we welcome multi-instrumentalist Ben Kenney to the show who introduces us to his 7 year old Italian Greyhound and artistic muse Carl (a.k.a The Hot Carl). Ben played guitar in The Roots in the early 2000's and bass in Incubus for 20 years before a health crisis forced him to recalibrate his life. We discuss how Ben, as a cat guy, came to add some dog energy into the home, the dogs of his New Jersey youth and how his animals comforted him while he recuperated from major surgery. Good talk from a thoughtful and grounded dog dad.Ben elected to give his shout out to Dogs Without Borders, a registered 501(c)3 non profit organization and foster-based rescue in Los Angeles that pulls small breed dogs from LA area shelters, as well as working with international rescue partners to re-home dogs in need. To adopt, foster, volunteer or donate visit dogswithoutborders.orgFor more pics and clips of Ben, Carl and many more of our previous 190 guests follow the show on Instagram at @rockerdogcast
