This week I've got something extra-special for you. It's an interview with Anthony Robustelli, whom I got to speak with recently via Skype. Anthony is a musician who has toured with lots of big-name performers, he's written books about Steely Dan and The Beatles (with more to come currently on the back burner), he's got a Beatles-based podcast that takes a whole new look at them, and his latest project is a 3D animated rock opera that takes place in the ashes of the 2016 election. Whether your politics lean red or blue, you'll probably find it fun (though admittedly it's a little more fun for the blue crowd). This is a longer episode than usual—just a shade over an hour, total—but my hope is that you'll have as much fun listening as I had chatting. If you want to encounter him elsewhere on the web: Where you can find him on the Twitter Machine. LIkewise, here's his Instagram profile. His 3D animated rock opera, The So-Called President. This is his main page. shadybear.com Link to his production studio. If you're interested in checking out his Beatles book, this is the place to go. And last but not least, here's the direct link to his podcast, which is back up and running as of today!
