  • S5 E6 - The Gospel Albums of Bob Dylan
    Aug 10 2024

    You may or may not know that from the summer of 1979 through to the summer of 1981 Bob Dylan released three Gospel albums. Right in the time of musical advances like post-punk, goth, industrial, and hip-hop Bob Dylan went back to one of the original sources of this thing called rock n' roll. Straight up Christian songs from Dylan were not what audiences were looking for at the time. And yet he did his thing, as he always does, regardless of the complaints of the crowd.

    Here we explore these three albums and find some truly inspired tracks. You can judge for yourself whether these records hold up or not. Let's have Mr. Bob Dylan take us to church.

  • S5 E5 - Siskel and Ebert
    Jul 8 2024

    This is a celebration of those two wonderful film critics that went from rivals to partners. Siskel and Ebert was a movie review show unlike any other. These two journalists passionately debated the merits of every kind of film you can possibly imagine. Their show ran from 1975-1999 and what a glorious half hour it was.

    I learned about the movies, how to engage in sincere debate, and that cinema is connected to everything from to politics to religion to philosophy to psychology. These two men made me think but they also made me laugh...a lot.

    So here is a celebration of the kind of television that doesn't really exist anymore. Let's enter into the world of Siskel and Ebert.
