One to One: John & Yoko

In this episode, we dive into American Symphony — the powerful documentary that follows Jon Batiste through a year of creative triumph and personal heartbreak. We talk about the pressure of composing a genre-defying symphony, the vulnerability of fame, and how Batiste navigates love, loss, and legacy in real time. This isn’t just a music doc — it’s a portrait of an artist learning how to stay whole when everything is shifting. From jazz clubs to Carnegie Hall, from hospital rooms to standing ovations — American Symphony is a reminder that sound can be a form of survival.

We explore One to One: John & Yoko, the intimate documentary capturing John Lennon and Yoko Ono in a pivotal moment of activism, artistry, and personal transformation.

We’re diving into The Stones & Brian Jones — a documentary that pulls back the curtain on the early chaos, genius, and tragedy at the heart of The Rolling Stones.

Was Brian the true architect of the band’s sound? And what really led to his fall? We break it all down.

After the alternative music boom of the early 1990s, two bands choose very different paths to fame. Portland, Oregon's the Dandy Warhols, led by the self-conscious and career-minded Courtney Taylor-Taylor, sign with a major label and score a radio hit. San Francisco's Brian Jonestown Massacre, fronted by the abrasive and unpredictable Anton Newcombe, seemingly go out of their way to impede their own rise to fame with a series of increasingly bizarre incidents, including onstage fistfights.
