Podcast (I listened on my iPhone using the Apple Podcast app):

A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs: Episode 165: "Dark Star" by the Grateful Dead

It's 4 hours and 39 minutes so give yourself some time (it's well worth it).

Fascinating, captivating...I didn't actually listen (which I will go back and do, mainly for the music references/excerpts), but instead read the whole transcript in one go--I couldn't stop! Well worth it indeed. The cross-pollination with & influence upon "Internet culture" (lacking a more creative, illustrative descriptor) was quite illuminating--the Grateful Dead's influences were and still are more far reaching than most realize. Sincerely appreciate you sharing this! I hope it will spark more discussion here. Thank you Jon S.
