138. Stephen Tobolowsky on David Bowie 'Ziggy Stardust'

Actor, author, podcaster and filmmaker Stephen Tobolowsky (Silicon Valley, Californication, Groundhog Day) talks about the impact that Bowie's seminal concept album had on him as a young man - and why the album is really all about death. 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.
