- One Hit Belvedere Bros

I love OHT. It’s perfect for my drive to and from work. Very entertaining even when the song isn’t in my wheelhouse. Interesting trivia and comments related to the artists and songs.
I have mentioned your show on other pages.

OHT is a amazing podcast everyone should listen to! Anything to do with music and the facts about the bands make you love( or hate) the artist even more. BUT BELVEDERE BROS TOOK IT TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL. I never watched the show. But listening to Chris and his bros ( or Markeet) go through every episode makes me laugh out loud constantly it’s like I grew up watching it but never did. I give these podcasts 12 scotch eggs. Listening to Chris makes me feel like I’m part
Of the gang and will always r... more
