  • Hit and miss

    The “what would Jello do” episodes are excellent, thought provoking and very well written. The rambling episodes with AT staff sound like a bunch of hipsters self congratulating each other for being so cool.

  • Good content but one suggestion

    I listen on my headphones and I have to listen at full volume just to listen to the pane speak, but quickly reduce volume when the music selections are played.

    Other than that, great to listen to how things are at the label and Jello’s views!
