  • Incredibly Informative

    I found this show a little over a month ago and listen to it daily. These guys do the research, they don’t just retell stories they’ve heard, they dig until they’ve found the most reliable source. I even listen to the stories about artists I don’t care for because it’s always entertaining.

    Also, the chemistry between these two friends is great. Lots of laughter, which everyone needs in this day and age.
