Bob Dylan

Chris does a very deep dive into Bob Dylan's 1963 masterpiece A HARD RAIN'S A-GONNA FALL, a version of which will feature in DIG YOURSELF: THE RISE OF BOB DYLAN 1961-66, the upcoming third volume of the PICASSO OF SONG trilogy.

Frizz and Bob are joined by Adam Edwards from Bob Dylan's whiskey brand, Heaven's Door. Join us through a tasting of their incredible line of whiskies while we share our favorite Bob Dylan songs and stories, talk about the art behind the musician, and uncover the true brilliance behind this brand.

We have the inimitable Jake Xerxes Fussell on the pod to help us think through the big question: WHAT (not who) is Bob Dylan? We also discuss Bobby D’s fashion choices, the difference between interpreters, presenters, and makers of tradition (and whether that matters), who (or what) Bob Dylan serves, and the difficulty of writing a good song about the current political moment.
