May 12, 201610 yr Alec Baldwin's "Here's The Thing" is a solid listen. Good interview with Anthony Weiner. I don't know if there are two people I'd least like to listen to.
May 12, 201610 yr I don't know if there are two people I'd least like to listen to. It was actually interesting. His podcasts with Fallon and Dustin Hoffman were also good.
May 12, 201610 yr Simmons had an outstanding podcast with Chris Sacca. Guy is very very impressive.That was fantastic. Thanks for the recommendation.
May 12, 201610 yr I've been listening to a podcast called "Backstory" that covers topics in American history. It's pretty good. They interview various experts on the topic of the day. Usually about 45 minutes long. I listened to one yesterday on the history of currency in the US, in light of the announcement of Harriet Tubman going on the $20 bill. Very interesting. I am about out of podcasts for my commute. Glad to have something new to add!
May 13, 201610 yr Caught the Maron episode from a few weeks back with David Simon on it. Great interview. Such an interesting dude.
May 15, 201610 yr Listening to the Sturgill Simpson episode right now Finished this one this morning. Thought their discussion of country music was interesting. Always like seeing a Kentuckian on the national scene like that.
May 16, 201610 yr Finished this one this morning. Thought their discussion of country music was interesting. Always like seeing a Kentuckian on the national scene like that. A few items jumped out at me: 1. His favorite all-time singer is Marvin Gaye. Would have lost that bet. 2. He didn't grow up listening to a lot of Merle. 3. While bro-country isn't for him he doesn't bash people for liking it. Said who is he to say what people should listen to and why. 4. Influence of his wife on his career and songs. 5. I didn't know his dad was KSP. 6. Said that in addition to Marvin he digs the Stax sound. My man! 7. Came across as thoughtful and intelligent.

Thought it was interesting how he said someone like Stapleton who is "less" of an outsider should be carrying the flag, not him. As soon as he said the Stax bit I thought of you.
May 17, 201610 yr If you've never heard Roy Buchanon's version of "Hey Joe" they were talking about it's worth listening to. Here's a live version. Incredible guitar playing.
