What's the English author of Paradise Lost got to do with a Russian 19th-and-20th century piano composer? Apparently, according to George, quite a lot. We'll be discussing the life of John Milton and Nikolai Medtner, Paradise Lost itself, and Medtner's similarly unsurpassable Night Wind Sonata.

George also rambles about how he's built different, has an above-genius-level IQ, and left his amazing fish tacos out to rot when he went to bed.

Do you know about Sigismond Thalberg? Did you know that he was, at one point, the most famous pianist in the world? Does George know what he's doing with this first episode? When will these aimless questions end?

Welcome to the Stupid Pianist Podcast's inaugural first episode!
