  • Insightful podcast for a real guns n roses time traveller

    Being a guns n roses fan all my life it’s wonderful hearing the build up to the early years. I appreciate the candid and honest interviews giving guests time to talk and appreciating their part.

    I’m hoping there will be more episodes but these were made a while ago now and I can only see a season 1?
