- Bad.
The name dropping & the constant interruptions by the hosts is unlistenable.

While they have interesting guests and I’d like to listen, the hosts just don’t shut up and do WAY too much blabbering. I had a headache after each listen, so I’ve dropped them from the Pods I listen too

United States2 months ago - Could be great if…
…there would not be constant rude interruptions of each other and worse: of the guests talking. I find this unbearable to listen even though (or even more so since) both would be very interesting people!

What a brilliant episode…I think listened to every episode of Rockonteurs and this has to rank among the very best. I’m not a musician, just a massive music fan, but listening to you guys and Colin share your clear and obvious passion for the technical aspects of your trade, is such a delight to be able to hear…never too Muso guys, always entertaining…keep up the amazing work!!
And as an esteemed guest once said, thank you for doing this podcast !

I only recently discovered these podcasts after reading Guy’s book.
I thought I knew a lot about pop/rock music history but there are so many great stories here that I was unaware of. Every episode has a little gem of information that sends me down a rabbit hole. Thanks to Gary and Guy for thinking this and all the great interviews you’ve done. ❤️
