  • Good guy Better music podcast

    Brian is a very charismatic host. Very knowledgeable about music. There are very few bands that I mention to him that he doesn’t already know, at least, to some degree.

    His interviews are always interesting. And it’s fun to see where the mixtape will go.

    No matter what genre of music you like there is an episode for you.

    This show is a ton of fun and brings back the memories of making mixtapes back in the day
