  • Jamie, please

    I’ll still listen to this show even though Mike decided he was too busy to meet me at the Joseph R. Biden Jr. Railroad Station in Wilmington, Delaware, when my train was late.

  • Cool tapes, difficult to understand

    Really cool tapes but I find the hosting hard to listen to. They talk over each other a lot and are constantly putting in soundboard effects so most of the time I can’t follow it at all. Worth checking out but definitely a podcast you have to work to listen to.

  • Good husband content

    My husband makes me listen to this in the car sometimes. It’s actually not that bad.

  • Total waste of Time

    Why do I even listen to this? They talk forever about nothing, no one has a clue of how to use recoding equipment, they rarely actually get to the music and when they finally do it’s often just which pure noise which tends to send the local dogs running for cover. So, yep. It’s a complete waste of time. Brilliant though. Absolutely brilliant front to back. But a complete waste of time.
