Longtime friend of the show, filmmaker Brian Koppelman, joins me to delve into the music of his acclaimed hit Showtime drama series BILLIONS.

Songs discussed include Metallica - Harvester of Sorrow Metallica - Master of Puppets Drive By Truckers - Goddamn Lonely Love Jason Isbell - Cover Me Up Bob Dylan - Gotta Serve Somebody Van Halen - And the Cradle Will Rock Mink DeVille - Spanish Stroll Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Even the Losers Billions original score by Eskimo Queens of the Stone Age - The Evil has Landed The Traveling Wilburys - Handle with Care Bob Dylan - It’s Alright Ma, I’m Only Bleeding Josh Ritter - Homecoming Garret T Kaps - Born in San Antone Nelly - Hot In Here Frank Sinatra and the Count Basie Orchestra - Come Fly with Me Frank Sinatra - One for My Baby (and one more for the road) The Velvet Underground - We’re Gonna Have A Real Good Time Together Follow Brian @briankoppelman on Twitter and listen to his great podcast The Moment.
