Hosted by Alex Preiss (creator of the popular @baddantakes account), Gaucho Amigos explores how a couple of misanthropic beatniks became the two most unlikely rock stars of the ‘70s. Through 1-on-1 interviews with notable Dan fans from across the pop culture spectrum, Gaucho Amigos ponders the nature of the band’s greatness, exploring the band’s growing cultural cache and trawling the outer reaches of Steely Dan’s sleazy cinematic universe.

A Bob Dylan Primer is a series of broadcasts dedicated to the work and life of Bob Dylan. The first season consists of 12 episodes, appearing approximately once a month, and covering the time period from Dylan’s youth in Minnesota and early days in New York City up to the release of Dylan’s Time Out Of Mind in 1997. I’ve attempted to combine a detailed account of Dylan’s life with my own personal observations about Dylan’s creative output and place in our world. It’s my hope that A Bob Dylan Primer will be embraced by a wide range of people, from Dylan fanatics to those who are just trying to understand what all the fuss might be about.

So much to love

Flash Fan #1

Love the format of rotating guests who bring their own insights and views! Not your typical song dissection show. Host Rob Kelly’s take on the why’s and wherefore’s of an enigmatic songwriter makes for a great listen.

The concept of going through Bob Dylan’s vast catalogue song by song is a simple one that works beautifully. Even more interesting is the diverse and growing pool of guests who appear on the show to talk about what Dylan’s songs mean to them. Hearing about the fans and their lives is often more interesting than hearing about the songs - and that’s a good thing. I’ve been listening to this since the early days and often revisit old favorites. Keep it up, Rob!

I’ve been listening to Pod Dylan for a long time, and I’m always impressed by host Rob Kelly’s ready knowledge of Bob Dylan and his music, and the breezy banter between he and his guests. What I like most, though, is the way you can tell this is a labor of love for Rob. He’s a true fan who just wants to talk about his love for the music, both the well-known tunes and the deeper cuts. This what makes Pod Dylan such a joy to listen to. Highly recommended for longtime fans and folks new to the Dylan discography.
