Fine Tuning: Ep 2 Shoulder to Shoulder
Listen now
Description
SYNOPSIS: This is a look at Tune In’s most positive descriptions of John and Paul respectively. All examined passages will be from the text, i.e. the author’s own depictions of John and Paul. By comparing how Lewisohn chooses to describe John versus Paul, we will reveal many undeniable discrepancies in word choice, enthusiasm, depth, and tone.  What do these discrepancies mean? We’ll discuss!
