    This is a better podcast than any other Dead-related pod. You will not find here a host born after 1995 only talking about the 70’s. Lots of stories from the Brent-era. Great reviews and deep dives of shows. Awesome interviews. I personally enjoy the tour stories. I feel like im there. 5 stars for this pod! Keep up the great work Howard!!
