    Roll, on Bob Dylan
    A someone who listens to a LOT of music-related podcasts, I can easily say this is among the best, Dylan-related or otherwise. The hosts clearly have a deep knowledge of Dylan and a wide knowledge of people to talk with about him and his work. Each episode they have a great sense of questions to get the ball rollling, so to speak, but they don't get in the way of their guests, who often tackle the topic and expand further than one would expect. The whole tone is one of serious people having a good time, and I always come away knowing a bit more... and also feeling like my time has been well-spent. Best of all: they are eminently re-listenable. Further kudos: I recently stumbled on one of the hosts elsewhere and I can say they are gentlemen.

    Delightful and insightful!
    What a treasure! Hosts Kerry and Lucas are just excellent. Generous interviewers who also share their passion and insights beautifully. While their knowledge is encyclopedic, their conversations are playful, never pretentious. The recent episode with Matt Rowland Hill was just a thrill, maybe my favorite one yet.

    Thoughtful Takes
    Is It Rolling, Bob drops every two weeks and I am eager to listen on the day it arrives. The words and music of Bob Dylan are treated with such love, respect and admiration by the fantastic and erudite guests. Hearing them recite the lyrics they have chosen as favorites inevitably gives even a well known song a new, undiscovered dimension. Kerry and Lucas create a relaxed and open atmosphere for discussion and are themselves fantastic and erudite! Cheers to an engaging, thought provoking podcast.

    Lucas & Kerry
    Naturals, comfortable, open to and with their guests; I love that they agree to disagree on all (many?) things Bob Dylan. I wish many more memorable interviews and discussions for this pair of crazy guys. Thank you to their staff, production crew and contributors.

    Street Legal is a great album to drive to
    While there is too much slander of Street Legal (a beloved and weird masterpiece) for my taste, this podcast is a wonderful compliment to listening to and thinking about Dylan’s music. Thank you for the wonderful conversations.

    Great Guests/Tedious Hosts
    Thank God for the guests on this show who bring something to the table - real insights. The hosts on the other hand view Dylan through their shallow political and religious views, almost trying to constantly prove how really, really woke they are. Insufferable. Perhaps you guys should host a Taylor Swift podcast instead? Dylan is over your head. Tried listening to the Charlie McCoy podcast but the dopey host had to ruin it right off the bat with his “woke” political take on a classic Bob song. Just shut up, please.

    For Dylan fans
    A Dylan fan listening to other Dylan fans? What’s not to love. It’s super informative, and even if you’re already a huge Dylanphile, you’ll probably find something here to deepen your love and knowledge even more. Great guests and great hosts!

    Must listen for all BobCats. Always admired the casual approach and unique guests.

    Essential Dylan listening
    Engaging, deeply knowledgeable hosts combined with a fantastic roster of guests make this podcast stand out.
  • Jim Kel
    Bob Dylan
    I feel so blessed to be alive while Bob Dylan is reaching us and teaching us such beautiful heartfelt poetry set to music. Of course his voice is an aquired taste, but his lyrics are one example of pure art, possibly Heaven sent. Thank your god for Bob Dylan. And thanks to anyone who took the time to read my gushing over Mr. Dylan aka Robert Zimmerman.

    Keep it rolling
    1 good episode & 1 very bad episode. More episodes would be welcomed. “Situations have ended sad, relationships have all been bad. Mine’ve been like Verlaine’s and Rimbaud.” Dylan
