128. Julian McCullough on Guns n Roses 'Appetite for Destruction'

Standup comic, actor and host of my new favorite podcast Julian Loves Music, Julian McCullough, joins me in an Echo Park bookstore to try and convince me that Guns n Roses are awesome. We talk about growing up the son of a music snob, how he played a GnR song about heroin for his elementary school class, why he never saw them live, and we debate the merits of Eric Clapton, the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith and Paul McCartney in an episode guaranteed to give any classic rock fan the shits. My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music. Each episode features a different songwriter or musician discussing their favorite album of all time - their history with it, the making of the album, individual songs and the album’s influence on their own music.Jeremy Dylan is a filmmaker, journalist and photographer from Sydney, Australia who has worked in the music industry since 2007. He directed the the feature music documentary Jim Lauderdale: The King of Broken Hearts (out now!) and the feature film Benjamin Sniddlegrass and the Cauldron of Penguins, in addition to many commercials and music videos.
