Each and Every Door
Each and Every Door is an educational podcast about Bob Dylan, Religion and Spirituality. Arguably the most influential singer/songwriter of our era, Dylan has been making music, in the words of some English folk, for "donkey's years." That means a very long time. During his long, unpredictable career, he has exhibited a fascinating relationship with religion and spirituality, one that extends far beyond his "gospel years." On this podcast, Malcolm Gold, a sociologist of religion at Messiah College and Jay Case, a professor of American religious history at Malone University, explore everything from what Dylan may or may not have believed, to the ways spirituality emerges in his songs and music, to the shifting religious context framing his life, and much more.

Episode 17
With Bob Dylan out on tour once again (that old guy just won't stop) Mal and Jay present a couple of tour-related themes. First, we have a "Stump the Dylan Freak" segment, involving reviews of concerts from old 70s bands. Is it a Dylan concert or not? You can play at along at home. Second, we bring on a special guest who attended the very first Dylan concert of her life. She also happens to be Elisa Case, Jay's wife. Mal finds out what the experience was like for her.
