These shows are great. I love the biography ones in particular
It’s truly a great podcast. Maybe it’s personal taste but these guys are just different enough to want to look into and find interesting stories that are *just* outside my sphere of influence, while being close enough to be interesting to me and my interests. I can’t explain it. Give it a listen, if you’re anything like me you won’t be disappointed.
I learn something new every podcast, great stories. Good stuff!!
Best podcast I've heard about musical stories that are unheard
I’ve always enjoyed hearing the backstories of musicians and their music. These hosts do a great job sharing those stories and mixing in their own experiences and insights to add their own spin on the history of rock and pop music.
