In this mini episode, we dive into Robbie Robertson’s Insomnia — a vivid, late-life reflection from one of rock’s most self-mythologizing figures. Less a memoir and more a cinematic vignette, Insomnia captures the years between 1976 and 1980, when Ro... more

  • Guy banned me on social media

    The guy posted an article about Todd Rundgren saying Robbie was a snob, I commented that maybe working with Robbie was too much like work, you know, because of the Todd Rundgren song where he sings about not wanting to work… apparently that was an attack and I’m a troll. I apologized in a message on another platform and was banned from there as well. Either way, he lost a podcast listener today. Unsubscribed

  • Missing the whole poing

    Your review of A Complete Unknown is off base. Dylan was objectively NOT political in his life and to criticize the movie for not being political is ridiculous.

  • Fantastic podcast

    My dad introduced me to The Band when I was in middle school. I’ve always been fascinated with their music and history ever since. This podcast relives one of the greatest bands of all time and I’m really glad I stumble upon this informative show. I’ve only had time to listen to a few select episodes but can’t wait to dive in more. Thanks for the time and effort put in to each episode!
