Bob Dylan vs. The Fans (with Rebecca Slaman)

December 9, 2025 · 1 h 26 min

Show notes

Recently the founder of The Daily Dylan was asked to leave a Bob Dylan concert, apparently for having shared illegally recorded concert videos.

Today we’re talking about the relationship between Bob Dylan and his fans, particularly their ideas of how his music should be engaged with are at odds with the artist’s own.
