  • The best ghost podcast out there!!!

    I love listening to this podcast everyday while I’m at work and listening to my headphones. Papa x and uncle ghoul talks very detail about ghost and talks about things that a lot of people may not know about ghost. If I could give higher then 5 stars I would give them that start rating.

    I fully well know that if anyone could hold a fan interview with questions that fans want answered from Toby himself, it’s Richie. And no one else could pull it off! Here’s to hoping that gonstFM and its spoken word companion travel all the way to The Man himself!

    Listen. No, that’s it. That’s the review. LISTEN. TO THIS. PODCAST.

    Richie really knows his stuff and it’s awesome to hear Ghost celebrated this way. A little seriously, and a lot tongue-in-cheek.
