Did Bob Dylan Deserve the Nobel Prize? Is Paul McCartney a Jerk? (Music Ramble Podcast #5)10/20/2016
Last week it was announced that Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize for literature. Amid much fanfare some people disagreed vehemently that Dylan deserved it, going so far as to say that it devalues literature. Are they correct?

All this and more in this weeks Music Ramble podcast. Thanks for listening!
