Ray Padgett returns to discuss Bob Dylan’s The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1976 Live Recordings, his role as a respected Dylan scholar, exactly why we are receiving a 39 CD Dylan box set in 2026, comparing the two distinctive legs of the Rolling Thunder Revue Tour and why the 1976 edition has clearly gotten a bad rap, how Dylan’s personal life may have informed his mood and behaviour on this tour, why he surprised his bandmates and fans so much back then, the possible influence that Bruce Springsteen and punk had on Dylan, some of this set’s key and most memorable performances, why the set doesn’t include any footage from this well-documented tour, Ray’s Rolling Thunder ’76 Day by Day zine, other future plans, and much more.

Licensed clinical psychologist Vincent Greenwood, Ph.D. is here to discuss his book Puppet on a String about U.S. President Donald J. Trump, his own educational background and vast experience in the realms of psychology, cognitive therapy, and human behaviour, how and why he was able to conduct a psychological profile of the president from a distance and without his express consent, the distinctions between the “duty to warn” and “duty to inform” medical standards and which category his book falls under, why Robert D. Hare’s psychopathy checklist-revised is a gold standard measurement tool and what Trump’s results reveal, the Hannibal Lecter connection, how other affliction symptoms Trump seems to present relate to Greenwood’s analysis, whether it’s complicated to be a dispassionate yet sympathetic straight shooter when assessing a political figure, what he hopes this book accomplishes, other future plans, and much more.
