Episode 183: Play That Funky Music White Boy

Off the Wall

I listened to “Play that Funky Music, White Boy.” As always, amazing. I then came home and watched the clip from Band of Brothers you mentioned. I had my 15 year old son watch it with me and he was mesmerized. Thank you for all that you do to provide a show that always goes well beyond the episode itself. You have a great gift to see the relationships between seemingly unrelated things. Thanks, Mike!

Hi Caroline

Thanks for the kind words. I’m glad you and yours are enjoying the expanded format. Below is a link to the current podcast. The Beethoven you refer to is a quartet in C# minor, Op. 131. Like your son, I too was mesmerized, when I heard it first, and each time thereafter. Tell the kid he has good taste…
