  • Well Told

    Really enjoyed this. Took me back to my younger days as a GUY fanatic. Well told with balanced story telling. I like that for many of the controversial comments made you get two sides of the story and not just one presented as the gospel. I will say regarding episode 6, I was at that show and there was no “announcement”.

    I really loved hearing this story. I loved the interview segments and the music elements. Taraji P. Henson was a great selection for a host. Please make more stories about other music groups in the 80s and 90s especially.
