The Flip Side’s intermittent summer schedule continues, but this is a good one.
Brian’s wife has recently started listening to Ryan Adams, and this has Galen super excited. They talk about Ryan’s long discography and the best ways to get into an established artist without being too Rob Gordon about it.
Then, the boys discuss some great issues stemming from a few online discussions this week. Why, oh why, don’t people know how to merge (which turns into a discussion on the importance of lines and waiting your turn in our culture). What does the future of TV look like now that Disney is creating its own streaming services? Who is the bigger loser in this — Netflix or cable?
And they tease to what’s sure to be a fascinating discussion on the state of academic publishing.
