For the past three years, Bob Dylan has hosted the “Theme Time Radio Hour,”
an hour-long radio show on XM that showcases music from all sorts of genres and artists. It’s very artsy, and it’s starts again today.
Beginning at 10am ET on XM channel 40, Deep Tracks, “Theme Time Radio Hour” starts anew.
Each show focuses on a theme, then explores music related to that theme. Past themes include war, famous people, and Biggs’ metabolism.
I heard one or two of these shows when it first debuted, but, and I’m almost afraid to admit this, I really don’t “get” (read: understand) Dylan. Don’t crucify me.

Most people don’t worship him like I do. I think a lot of it just has to do with how much of his music you’ve heard – and even then, like everything, it’s not for everyone.
I don’t “get” him either. He wrote some great music, but in my humble opinion, those songs were all performed better by other artists – “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” by GnR, “All Along the Watch Tower” by Hendrix, etc.
I wish they would bring back the Rolling Stones channel on Sirius. The Grateful Dead and Jimmy Buffet channels are pretty much the same annoying thing.

You apparently don’t “get” press releases either, as the “war” and “famous people” themes, – which came from the XM press release – refer to planned themes for this season, not past shows.
