iPod Nano containing all three seasons of Theme Time Radio Hour (TTRH), a weekly, one-hour satellite radio show hosted by Bob Dylan, which originally aired from May 2006 to April 2009 on XM Radio. The episodes were an eclectic, freeform mixture of blues, folk, rockabilly, R&B, soul, bebop, rock-and-roll, country, and pop music, each focused on a theme as varied as ‘Weather’ or ‘Money.’ The show was not recorded live—Dylan taped his portions at various locations and while touring—and the studio location at the so-called ‘Abernathy Building’ was fictitious. Intermixed between the musical segments were e-mail readings, listener phone calls, old radio promos and jingles, poetry recitations, taped messages from celebrities, musicians, and comedians, as well as jokes and commentary from Dylan on the music and musicians. The first season aired from May 3, 2006 to April 18, 2007, and contains 50 episodes; the second season, September 19, 2007 to April 2, 2008, contains 25 episodes; and the third season, October 8, 2008, to Wednesday, April 15, 2009, contains 25 episodes. In fine condition. Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from Jeff Rosen, president of the Bob Dylan Music Company, which reads: “Compliments of Jeff Rosen—these are the 3 seasons of the XM Radio Show & then some…Enjoy!”
