This week we have the pleasure of chatting with Matthew Barzun, the former U.S. Ambassador to the UK and Sweden. Matthew is known as the "Vinyl Diplomat" because not only did he put vinyl records and a turntable in his office and encourage visitors to pick something to listen to, he held concerts at his residences. This was a lot of fun, and let me tell you, Matthew has some cool stories (like the one with Annie Lennox). Matthew's site and book info: https://matthewbarzun.com/ (https://matthewbarzun.com/)
