Whether it’s at The Rainbow, the Whisky a Go Go, or Zebulon for the Sam Blasucci show, he’s not trying to "capture the zeitgeist" — he’s there to crack it open and watch it spill out like egg yolk on a diner counter. Meanwhile, I’m up in Vancouver, carving out my own little rock and roll fantasy — finishin...

SUBSCRIBE TO IMPOSSIBLE WAY OF LIFE ON PATREON TO ACCESS FULL EPISODE https://www.patreon.com/animpossiblewayoflife Ever wondered what would happen if The Beatles reunited as A.I holograms and embarked on a four set, four era world tour? What songs would they choose to play and why? Well, we sat down with A.I John Lennon himself and asked him and, quite frankly, we may never be the same again.

This is a BIG John and Paul episode. We're getting to the essence of something that goes beyond Beatles. Something that affects all of us. No cool stories in rock here, just raw, reactionary music journalism. We are asking the tough questions week in and week out. Bravely going where no Beatles commentary has gone before.

It's the morning after the election and we are all deciding where to go next, both as a podcast and as a society. We have finished our journey through Neil Young's albums (the best ones) and are on the bridge headed somewhere new. The destination is uncertain but we will get to the other side, one way or another, hand in hand, one step at a time.

Well, it's definitely better to burn out than to fade away when it comes to our Neil Young album ranking extravaganza. Our journey through the past may end here at "Rust Never Sleeps", but ol' Neil's still flying down the road like the hurricane that he is. Long may your run, Neil. Long may you run.

As our Neil Young campaign nears its end we saddle up the palomino and mosy into American Stars and Bars. We've also had just about enough of the league of technical music villains and their attempted coup d'etat of classic rock, so we're fighting back.

Neil's living on the dock and Stills is scuba diving off the deep end and getting high on his own nitrogen supply. You guessed it folks...we've made it to "Long May You Run" by The Stills Young Band.

An atmospheric river is hitting the BC coast this weekend so we talk and rank Neil Young's "Zuma" before the apocalypse hits and the internet goes down. Neil Young’s Zuma feels like a musical equivalent of Ed Harris’s character in The Rock—both driven by conflict, intensity, and moments of raw emotion that seem to surge from a place of deep conviction. If Brigadier General Francis Hummel had a soundtrack to his brooding, morally complicated mission, it could very well be Zuma—an album that balan...
