Episode description

Fans were disappointed when they learned the film adaptation of the 1995 bestselling novel High Fidelity was being moved from London to Chicago. Author Nick Hornby felt it was a ridiculous thing to have any objection to…that the nationality of record store owner Rob Gordon really had no bearing on anything. He was right. John Cusack and his fellow screenwriters knew exactly what they were doing, because we all have friends like Rob, Dick and Barry, unappreciated scholars who believe music is autobiographical in their lives. Nick Malone and Jason Thompson join Dennis to unleash their inner music nerd, share some top fives and debate which came first, the music or the misery.
