Van Dyke Parks on Brian Wilson, Hollywood, and the authority of failure

<p dir="ltr">This week, Van Dyke Parks sits down with <em>The Business</em> showrunner Joshua Farnham to look back at a career that stretches from childhood acting to collaborating with Brian Wilson, and scoring films for Jack Nicholson. He also recalls his first arranging job, <em>The Bare Necessities</em> for Disney&rsquo;s <em>The Jungle Book</em>, and how Harry Nilsson talked him into spending five months in Malta for Robert Altman&rsquo;s <em>Popeye</em>.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Plus, Kim Masters and Matt Belloni sort through who&rsquo;s in and who&rsquo;s out at Skydance. They discuss the unceremonious dismissal of Warner Bros. film chiefs Mike De Luca and Pamela Abdy, who&rsquo;s taking their jobs, and the company&rsquo;s promises for paying down its mountain of debt.</p>
