Here. I've put it in my Kindle.
Also out today, Quentin Tarantino's "Cinema Speculation." I just put that in my Kindle too.
Is that too much pop culture to read all at once? I guess I did not think so. Better to read whatever Genius 1/Genius 2 have to say about songs/movies than the last gasps of politicos hankering for next week's elections.
It's too late for October surprises. It's November — remember.

Voices on the audiobook of TPOMS: Bob Dylan, Jeff Bridges, Steve Buscemi, John Goodman, Oscar Isaac, Helen Mirren, Rita Moreno, Sissy Spacek, Alfre Woodard, Jeffrey Wright, and Renée Zellweger.
The audiobook for Tarantino is Tarantino. Could get annoying! But it's probably the way it should be.
Politics is soul killing and mental illness inducing. Great art is transcendent. Especially music which stimulates the lizard brain directly to secrete groovy neurochemicals that soothes the savage beast.
Steve Buscemi is an inspired choice.
Can't. Do. It.

There's a strong connection to the "Big Lebowski" with the first 4 on the list. Number 5 crossed path with Dylan in "Inside Llewyn Davis" and hearing Number 6 read Dylan's prose is worth the price of audio version alone.
Gonna get me this audio book - will be the first time I'll have listened to a whole book in my life.
Jeff Bridges is an inspired choice. It's not hard to imagine that Jeff Lebowski fried his brain while listening to Dylan songs (or while trying to figure out what the lyrics meant).
It's surprising that Quentin Tarantino hasn't already been cancelled for "cultural appropriation." Your mom's having had African-American boyfriends doesn't make you Black, and does anything in Q's background make him Asian enough to go in so big with martial arts films?
Ima wait for the The Song of Modern Philosophy.

Depends on which song. "Gates of Eden", yes, but "The Man in Me" is a song right down his alley. It was used twice in the movie. Really tied the film together.
"It's too late for October surprises. It's November — remember."
Fetterman’s debate was the October surprise. Everything has flipped.
Something tells me the Phillies have a few November surprises up their sleeves (or possibly in their ears). But I'm no Baseball Denier.
Please to remember
The 5th of November
Gunpowder, treason and plot
And "A penny for the old guy"
Update those as you will.
