Elton John might be one of the least likely rock and roll legends. But legend is the only proper word to describe him. Jeremy walks Jason through the life and times of Dwight Reginald

Jeremy and Jason discuss everything after The Final Cut, including A Momentary Lapse of Reason, Roger Waters playing to crowds of 5,000 on his solo tour in cities where the rest of the band is playing stadiums, Live 8 in 2005, and more.

Jason and Jeremy talk about the legendary but ill-fated Wall Tour, the bizarre movie and the follow up that had almost no chance of success.

Jason and Jeremy discuss the second half of The Wall, and get into several heated arguments over the controversial final song, The Trial.

Jason and Jeremy talk about how Pink Floyd managed to finish their incredible run in the 70’s with one of the most mesmerizing, moving, and best-selling double albums ever, The Wall.

In this episode, Jason and Jeremy talk about how Pink Floyd did the impossible: follow up one of the greatest albums of all time with another one of the greatest albums of all time.
