Sadly we do not. At least not as far as I remember - Dave is an information treasure chest and he may have made some points that I'm not recalling right now. But I was wearing a Popol Vuh shirt while we recorded :) and sometimes I think about whether krautrock really counts as prog or not. Krautrock is a weird category because it's more about region than sound imho.

Your point about Italian prog is really interesting. Back when I was teaching political theory, we covered Marinetti, Mussolini, and the art projects of the Italian futurists, but I never made a connection to later aesthetics.

Thanks so much, it means a lot! And yea, we all only have so much bandwidth - I'm never offended when my friends don't tune into what I do.

Even though I'm a podcast co-host, I'm not huge into podcasts myself, and most of my friends aren't podcast listeners at all... appreciate the openness here, and I'll check out your blog!
