What happens when the co-founder of a legendary magazine drops a bombshell with his recent book, stirring up quite the controversy? This episode has us dissecting Jan Wanner's  "The Masters," a book that has sparked heated debates with its perceived exclusion of women and people of color. Together, we sift through Wiener's selection of 'masters' which include Bob Dylan, Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead, and Mick Jagger and Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones. We push the boundaries of this discussion, scrutinizing these musicians and their legitimate claim to the title of 'masters.'

We're not stopping there. Get ready for a deep-dive into the world of Rolling Stone magazine and its influence on rock and roll. We examine the imprint of acclaimed artists like Pete Townsend and Jimi Hendrix on various music genres, and how Rolling Stone has capitalized on the talents of these musicians. We even call out the hypocrisy of the magazine's claim to revolutionize music while they seemingly failed to recognize the true masters of the craft. 

As we wrap up, we switch gears to share our excitement about the upcoming Pearl Jam tour and the thrill of seeing them perform live. We've got a big announcement coming up too, so stay tuned! And don't miss our next episode where we'll be joined by Randy from the Alive and Four Legs podcast. We'll continue our exploration into the world of music with a breakdown of the Pearl Jam tour, plus a special focus on the Hitchhiker series. Trust us, you won't want to miss out!
