Fifty-one versions of "Eleanor Rigby"
Monday reading #42
Monday Reading is my weekly recommendation of something I’ve found thought-provoking or fascinating. Sometimes it is about something I have read. Sometimes it is about television or food or music or projects I care about supporting. Sometimes I do not send it on Monday. Please share with anyone who might like the vibes!
Can I interest you in a frankly majestic 120-minute playlist consisting solely of covers of “Eleanor Rigby”? My old pal Lola shared this with me years ago—it’s an episode from the radio show Chances With Wolves which I actually haven’t listened to much otherwise. It seems really great and probably of interest to more people than the self-selecting Venn diagram of people with ADHD and people who love a dumb joke flawlessly executed. (I am the latter.)
See you soon!
PS: In response to the very reasonable question “what’s up with this newsletter,” I’m … working on it. If you are a paid subscriber, thank you. It makes a very big difference to me. I’d love to send you a copy of “Jail on Wheels.”
hell yeah
