  • RBP

    The best music podcast out there. These guys know their stuff but they know that you like what you like and be damned with the received wisdom rock canon stance. Each episode a guest, often a music writer, joins the discussion- always interesting/thought provoking. Excellent.

  • They sound like they’re having a blast. And they really know their stuff.

    Wonderful show. Learned a lot as these guys have been at it for years. And unlike so many other Podcasts they aren’t full of themselves and are obviously just having a good time and talking about a subject they love.

  • Insightful and passionate

    Great insights from eclectic guests and hosts. Someone should though give Mark Pringle a Chupa Chup each episode so he talks slower, quieter and less often. It might also quieten down his hideous nervous laugh.

  • Essential listening

    I’m ashamed to say I only caught on to this podcast about a year ago but I’ve listened to about thirty episodes and just think the whole thing is superb. Just listened to the Robert Greenfield show and thought it the best so far. So informative and a really worthy archive. I don’t understand why anyone would leave a bad review - it’s so much better than any other music pod I’ve heard and the presenters are so likeable. Hooked!
