  • Not what I wanted

    I was searching for Portishead as a fan, and I hoped this would be a deep dive analysis of Dummy. It was the exact opposite…45 minutes of unlistenable drival, then when they finally got into the album, they admitted they’d never heard of it and had no idea what it was all about. I just read the premise of the show after the fact, and now realize why they were so lost. And I did appreciate their minimal research, I learned a thing or two between all the nonsense. Props to them for trying, I guess... more

  • Huge Podcast Fan

    HELLO! I’m a huge BDIB fan!

    I found this show while reviewing another podcast that’s concept is based on listening to one episode of a podcast to review it.

    Both concepts are neat.

  • Genius concept!!

    I reviewed this show on my podcast “Just One Listen” and absolutely love the concept! I was hooked off of the description of this podcast (hoping the dating advice eventually helps out your single friend). They’re truly having fun, they clearly put love and thought into each and every episode with their games, commentary and listener inclusion! Thanks for a great show guys, subscribed!!
