This was another great episode!
Sorry, I want to say more but I’m busy. I’ll have to listen to it again on tomorrow’s road trip.
Bob’s enthusiasm is always infectious, but who doesn’t love this song? If you don’t, you’re dead inside.
I like the idea of it being both sides of Dylan, but the Elvis bit is just the type of out-of-left-field theory I enjoy to ruminate.
In addition to Watchmen, wasn’t there a comic about a decade ago with the Joker and the Shadow Thief where the Clown Prince says “There must be some kind of way out of here”? I think it was a Countdown tie-in?

One of my favorite songs ever, any version, and its use in Battlestar Galactica is one of my favorite uses of music in screen media ever. I love that version, or I should say THOSE versions, since it gets laced into various pieces of instrumental music. Bear’s orchestrations are magical.
Listening to this made me want to take up the 1 BSG a day project I’ve been reserving for a time when I don’t mind the daily dose of depression.
