hi there! i am reposting today’s episode because for whatever reason it never showed up in apple podcasts! if doing this shakes the original episode loose, like when a bag of chips gets stuck in a vending machine so you buy another one and they both fall out, i’ll delete this! working theory: i scheduled the post to release at 6am on wednesday morning, and i think scheduled posts (which i have never ever been organized enough to try before) don’t connect w/ apple. or maybe something else! ok bye!

in today’s special episode of MAKE A MIXTAPE, morgan and i break down A COMPLETE UKNOWN, the Bob Dylan biopic we’ve been both anticipating and dreading. given that it’s a movie about the LEAST mysterious years in Dylan’s entire life, watching the movie is probably not essential for following along. but i’d recommend it!
