" We're not overly political on this podcast..." as he provides his political opinions at every opportune time
I listen to a lot of Podcasts and have been since they fist came on the scene.
The production and research are top notch. No annoying Ads interupting the flow.
Love it!
Thanks for putting out such a great show. The amount of research is mind-boggling, and the presentation is so enjoyable. I can listen to the shows more than a few times, which makes it a classic in my book.
Great show on a great artist.
The best researched, most balanced, best delivered (Christian speaks professionally, without stammering like a guy who hasn’t collected his thoughts), most articulate, open minded rock music podcast out there. I like to think that I’m pretty well-read in the history of the Rock era, but I always learned something. This is your rock ‘n’ roll encyclopedia.
