  • EP#25 - Shelter From the Flowing River
    Aug 3 2026

    Is Watching The River Flow about the challenges of meditation, the confusion of writer’s block or being a workaholic? What was the first non-Columbia Records studio Dylan recorded at? Is “factoid” a word? How does Dylan not create a scene? Who might be the reincarnation of Paul Revere’s horse? Does the song’s ending resemble a Buddhist text? How can we be like water?


    Does the singer regret being given Shelter From The Storm? Which Shakespeare play is referenced right off the bat? Who is “she”? How does the concept of grace apply? Who wanted to take one more journey into the woods? What’s the purpose of “non-eventful morn”? What’s the earthier meaning of “futile horn”? Who was bushwhacked on the prairie?


    Recorded at Cathouse Studios, Islington, London.

    Produced by Robin Guise.

    Theme Music: The Haze by Daniel Crespin.

    How did it feel when Kerry went out on tour with Scarlet Rivera and Rob Stoner? Was “Joey” included in the set? Why? Which band member swears like a sailor? What five letter word was screamed from the audience in Maastricht? What links Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door and All Along The Watchtower? Is the story about Bob singing Sara to Sara in the studio actually true?

  • EP#24 - Honest with Me #12 & 35
    Jul 20 2026

    Who was the tambourine man on Rainy Day Women #12 & 35? Who claimed the song was “one of the protestiest of all things I’ve protested against”. What’s the title’s mathematical/Biblical significance? What’s our opinion of the Dylan lists in Rolling Stone magazine? Where do Rosa Parks, St Stephen and JFK figure? What’s a more dangerous rhyme for “tryin’ to make a buck”?


    Is Honest With Me about a back-footed love affair or something too terrible to be true? What’s the link between a demolition derby and an ice hockey game? Why is tossing a baseball bat in the air actually rather dangerous? Ever noticed the Double Dip in “imperial empire”? Is Cameron Winter the newest Dylan? Is everybody in the world crazy except for me and you?
