Broken Record's Justin Richmond joins us to talk Still Crazy After All These Years. Paul Simon's Grammy-winning album was born out of divorce, and produced some of his greatest songs of all time, like 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover, My Little Town and I Do It For Your Love.

We dive into the story behind this remarkable album, including Steve Gadd's famous drum beat and how Stevie Wonder's Innervisions may have been the catalyst for Paul Simon's divorce?! Plus - Adam shares why this has been such a transformative album for him, and how it influenced his playing.

And, we ask: Is this the ultimate sad boy album? Is this the apex moment of boomerism? We kick off our new season with these questions and so much more!

We turn our own categories back on ourselves! We're looking back on the past 20 epiosdes, which we're calling You'll Hear It Season 12, and ask:

- What are our apex moments?
- What are our desert island tracks?
- Is season 12 better than Kind of Blue?!

And - we hear from you, dear listeners. You sent in your questions on Speakpipe, and we answer them. Plus - look ahead at what's coming up next season.

The ultimate musical showdown: jazz vs classical. We bring in conductor Josh Weilerstein from the Sticky Notes podcast to compare, contrast and find the common ground among these two very different schools of music.

From Duke Ellington's swinin' take on Peer Gynt to George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, we explore the tunes and the musicians blurring the line between jazz and classical. Josh, Adam and Peter each bring their own picks to the conversation, and have the best time breaking it all down.

Nerdy? Extremely. Snobby? A little. Fun? Heck yeah!

In this episode you'll hear:
- Ravel's Piano Concerto in G Major: Herbie Hancock vs the Cleveland Orchestra
- How Duke Ellington made classical standards swingin'
- Why Bartók matters to modern music
- Two very different interpretations of Rhapsody In Blue
- Brubeck’s Blue Rondo à la Turk: no improv, still loose
- Miles Davis and Gil Evans doing Adagio
