  • Loren Allred interview

    An amazing back story to this lady and her determination. A humble person with a wonderful voice. I’m not just going to say she’s talented as it’s clear she’s worked very hard on her craft as a singer. She totally deserves to be now front and centre.

    Putting a commercial in the middle of playing a demo song was super annoying. Otherwise I like this podcast

  • Super Interesting!

    I’ve always liked behind-the-scenes stories of songs, artists, etc. It’s very fun and interesting to listen to. I have no idea how this kid has these connections, but good for him. Hopefully other artists, producers, etc. see his interviews and he keeps booking great guests.
