  • A class of its own

    I’ve tried dozens of music podcasts over the years and can say without hesitation that Discograffiti is in a class of its own, thanks to the host, Dave Gebroe. Dave approaches each episode with unparalleled knowledge and tremendous enthusiasm, and his love for rock music comes through in every episode. Equally impressive are his interviewing skills: rather than relying on the usual, well-worn questions, he consistently finds fresh and thoroughly researched angles that lead to conversations tha... more

    I am a subscriber and having difficulty finding some previous interviews, especially the ones with the Association's great late Terry Kirkman and Jules Alexander from 2023. This is certainly not a user-friendly podcast!

  • Decent content buried under Patreon ads

    I’m all for supporting a full time creative but the intro and outro self promotion has turned me off this podcast (and many others that I know). I genuinely don’t wish any ill will to Dave. I hope you realize you don’t need to grind the ads for so long and so often. And it’s the same script every single week. It may be turning more people away who would actually support a patreon to hear extra tidbits. On top of that, not everyone can afford to support your endeavors but may just want to... more

Q: Do you feel like some of the aesthetics of how Neil would approach things were influencing you, and did you consciously try to capture that on Wild Tales?
Yes, I was influenced by Neil's approach and his preference for first takes, which pushed me to capture a similarly immediate, back-to-basics feel on the record.
