Hi, this is Steve Martin.

You might know me from among other things, my TV show Only Murders in the Building, where

I play a guy who records podcasts.

In real life, I'm a guy that made an audiobook.

It's called So Many Steves, afternoons with Steve Martin.

I created it with my friend, New Yorker writer, Adam Gopnik, and you can find it at pushkin.fm

and wherever audiobooks are sold.

Hey everyone, this is a bit of a special episode of Broken Record.

Not just because it features Rick Rubin, Malcolm Gladwell, and Bruce Hadlam all at once.

But because it happened at the spiritual home, Shangri-La, of today's guest.

That's the band's Robbie Robertson, who reminisces about converting a home in Malibu into

the now legendary recording studio run by Rick.

Before moving on to discussing the band's early days as backup for a rock-a-bleasinger

when they were known as The Hock's.

And they also discuss Robbie's long-time work with director, Martin Scorsese, which earned

him an Oscar nomination at this year's Academy Awards.

We should also note that if you like this episode, there's a new documentary called Once

Were Brothers, Robbie Robertson, and The Band that will be coming out in theaters on February 21st.

This is Broken Record, Liner Notes for the Digital Age.

I'm Justin Richmond.

Here's Rick Rubin, Malcolm Gladwell, and Bruce Hadlam from Shangri-La speaking with the

studios architect, Robbie Robertson.
