The legendary Paul McCartney has a very busy time lately, with a new album (The Boys of Dungeon Lane), appearances on Saturday Night Live and the final Stephen Colbert show, a new exhibition at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and a recent book and documentary. Rob and Alan talk all about McCartney’s goings on and review the new album, and get a little melancholy about aging and memory. 

First, though, we talk about Sonny Rollins, who passed away on May 25, 2026.
