  • I like it a lot, but wishing there were more audio with Deirdre O'donoghue. Yes, there are extended interviews on the archival portion of the podcast site, but it feels like there may be more stories to tell using Deidre's own voice. I didnr have the pleasure of being able to tune in in the 80s as I was growing up in New England, but I can tell you I would have been a huge fan.

  • Great concepts but not well-researched

    I like all of the concepts for each episode but the stories are so poorly executed that it’s hard to follow. For the Stevie Wonder podcast, how do they end up spending 90% of the episode gassing Stevie up instead of discussing actual facts/ historic influences? Seems the host is obsessed with how others “ripped off” of these artists but gives little to no examples of how this actually occurred.
