    If you don’t understand the music or the artist and need to go to Wikipedia to get the information on them, please do not review them. And review is nothing but an embarrassment that I want an hour back of my time.

    I love/loved this podcast!! Been listening for a long time. I had to leave a new review because I’m dropping down it to 4 stars. The new host is terrible. If he says “shoe gaze” one more time I’m gonna teach thru the interwebs and flick his ear real hard. Thank god for the regulars or this whole podcast would go in the Aaron’s stinky stinkers pile
