This episode features Jaymee’s conversation with artist Dan Richter—immortalized as Moonwatcher in Stanley Kubrick’s cinematic masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey, a role he not only performed but choreographed while in the grip of heroin addiction. Dan takes us behind the eyes of one of cinema’s most iconic figures and into the astonishing life that followed. From 1969 to 1973, he served as John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s assistant and artistic collaborator—and is credited with taking the iconic cover photograph for Lennon’s first solo album, John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band. Through Dan’s intimate recollections, we encounter John, Yoko, and Kubrick not as legends, but as people. His extraordinary journey placed him among some of the most influential artists and visionaries of the 20th century, including The Beatles, William S. Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Harry Smith, and Ram Dass—all while Dan emerged as a potent artist in his own right. He also shares the remarkable story of his 42 years of sobriety, which began when John and Yoko created an improvised rehabilitation sanctuary for him inside their home at Tittenhurst Park. For Beatles, Kubrick, and counterculture devotees who think they already know the story: sit back and prepare for your software update.
