Johnny is auditioning for the Hollywood Vampires, so my old pal and OG friend of the pod Vom Cruise is here to fill the void.  We talk about all the usual stuff, Dave Grohl being Ringo, John Depp being John.  Who else is involved?  Why would anyone care?  Because it's a Goddam Impossible Way of Life.

Me and Johnny enjoy a last meal before he heads to L.A for a couple weeks, and we laugh harder than we ever have on this podcast.

Last week got me thinking.  Rolling Stone vs Pitchfork, Mods vs Rockers, Knives vs Guns, Marshall vs Fender.  I was ordering Sushi and I felt like I made a particularly Velvetsy style order.  Can everything be broken down into such binary oppositions?  Or do The Stones have to be involved?

We watched The Velvet Underground Documentary by Todd Haynes, but also listened to the Giles Martin "Let It Be" 2021 Atmos mixes.  Needless to say, this episode is mostly about Al Stewart's reissue of Time Passages.

And this time Macca says it's Lennon who did it.  Also, given the fact that "Let It Be" has been reissued 5 times this year, and with the Velvet Underground Doc, Led Zeppelin Doc, Beatles / Lord of the Rings Doc, we try to put together a Classic Rock Reissue Calendar for the coming months.  Enjoy!

Damn.  Another massive rivalreh.  Also, I have a new chord that lets me play music on the pod.

Doing God's work over here.  We break down the TOP 250 songs in Rolling Stone Magazine's recently refreshed TOP 500.  Listen to last Sunday on Patreon for maximum IWOL energy.

We watched this doc called "Whatever Happened to Pink Floyd?  The Strange Case of Waters and Gilmour and as such decided to settle on of the most important questions in Classic Rock.  Do Pink Floyd actually have any songs?  Oh, and delve into the Fire (Waters), Ice (Gilmour) and Luke Warm Water (Mason) of Floyd, deciding once and for all, who is the best.

In an IWOL first, Alex Bleeker made it Snowdenseque and safely across the Canadian Border, and we catch up with him "alive and dangerous" to discuss all different kinds of ranking, plus James tries to be a real journalist for a moment.

It's really hard to explain what's goin' on here.
