  • What a great idea!

    This show is so cool. Tom Pollard, the host, is a really talented interviewer, who keeps the ball rolling and gives us the chance to hear interviews from musicians across the country, and to hear their music. Well, like I said, it’s very cool. I especially love hearing other female artists and listening to music from other states and regions. Just so much to analyze and enjoy.

  • Goin’ to Donkeyland

    This is a Full Donkey podcast. And not because my band, Fonky Donkey is featured in an episode. Rather, host Tom Pollars uses the hour long format to take a thoughtful journey into each artists background and process, with some fun side trips along the way. I’m the process, you’ll discover some great undiscovered music. Definitely recommended. This review was not written by AI, and Tom didn’t pay me for it, either. Stay Donkey y’all!
