Canada5 years ago - I always come back to this podcast...
I really enjoy the selection of music on these podcasts . Koop‘s voice is dreamy and relaxing... Its a great podcast to just get out of head for a lil while and daydream about swanky lounges and dapper, well dressed men and women, sipping colorful cocktails and dancing and chatting the night away.
Apple Podcasts5CarlashearUnited States6 years ago - Love the music!
After searching for so long for a station that played retro lounge music and for awhile listening to stations that weren’t very satisfactory, but listened to them anyway! I found Koop Cooper, ya! Love listening and I like saying “Koop cooper” in a honey sounding voice.. lol.. love Koop! The music is what I want and listen!!
