You’re listening to a conversation between Scott Bunn, a lover of Bob Dylan, and Tamarah Federici, producer of every band ever, already in progress.

Scott Bunn co-hosts Run That Back on 103.3 Asheville FM (with Tom Chalmers, from EBE’s Van Halen episodes) an indie sports talk show with a mix of comedy and music. Scott also writes and manages Recliner Notes, which is made up of deep dives on individual songs by Bill Callahan, Elvis Costello, and Bob Dylan as well as interviews, reviews, and much more. Follow him on Bluesky, Twitter, and Instagram.

We recorded this at the end of January 2025, so if it sounds like we're talking about the Bob Dylan movie in present tense, as if it was still in theaters, please just go with it. Thanks.

Part 2 of a conversation between Joanna Rakoff and Tamara Federici leads us down the path of what truly powers Taylor Swift to bring it each night, Joanna’s fear of snakes and snakes in pop music, and the tiny magical Eras tour gift that Joanna learns she missed out on. Bring your heart shaped food and your love of carousel horses to this stadium-sized episode! I don’t know what it means either.

SPECIAL NOTE:

Tom and I recorded this in Asheville, NC (Weaverville, to be specific) in 2023. I joke with Tom that he is the unofficial Mayor of Asheville. He's been doing story and comedy shows there as well as acting for the last 15 years, and elsewhere sort of forever. On Sept 27, Tropical Storm Helene devastated the area. Today, I wanted to give a shout out to Tom and to Asheville, my home for the last year and a half. Today's episodes (part 1 and 2 are both up) are dedicated to the peeps of Western NC. And to those who simple cannot not drive 55.

I love this episode and Tom's pretty incredible story. ps, you can find him doing his long-time running shows (many venues are on temporary or permanent hiatus right now, so check back if you do not see current show dates), listed below.

Lastly, please consider donating to BeLoved Asheville! The town and affected areas nearby still needs all the help you have to give!

Bio & Show info for Episode:

Join writer and performer Tom Chalmers and producer of every band ever Tamara Federici as they discuss Van Halen.

Tom Chalmers is a writer, performer, professor, and professed music show rat (as in he goes to a lot of them). A graduate of Columbia University, Tom spent his summers in Chicago taking classes at Second City and Improv Olympic (with the legendary Del Close). After college, Tom stayed in New York to study with Groundlings East/Gotham City Improv where he became a member of the performing company, an instructor, and the Artistic Director. He eventually left for LA where he wrote for SHOWTIME television and appeared in a handful of national commercials and feature films.

Tom has since settled in Asheville, NC, where he is an Adjunct Professor at Warren Wilson College and runs his own academy, The Asheville School of Improv. He is part of the popular improv troupe, Reasonably Priced Babies, the host and producer of the long-running storytelling series, Listen to This, and co-host of the weekly sports talk radio show, Run That Back, on AshevilleFM. Tom also somehow finds time to contribute articles and reviews to the music website, Asheville Stages.
