  • My kind of nonesense

    I always appreciate niche podcasts. I am in love with niche podcasts with a tone of fantastical unimportance. Let’s all waste some time together and have fun. Any hack can pretend their show is serious and about “ stuff”. You need a baseline of knowledge and talent to pull off a podcast like this. I’m not even all that partial to this kind of music, but I like this show.

  • Fantastic Podcast

    Entertaining discussion and deeply careful and informed analysis of the many forms and varieties of haunted music. Great to listen to just to hear two dudes talk excitedly about what they like but also gives superb recommendations for music most people would never have otherwise encountered. Truly awesome stuff.
