Featured on the Broken Record podcast this week so I listened. Dude is annoying in my opinion and talks too much vs guest. It’s Jeff Daniels let him speak, who cares about his longest shot scene we want to hear what he says about CSNY. Even he didn’t want to answer those dumb questions.
This podcast is so good I’m already depressed knowing it’s going to end.
Have never heard of or listened to your podcast. Don’t think I will based on the description of the Jeff Daniels episode. Crosby, Stills and Nash, as a trio, did 4 studio albums after Deja Vu. Sloppy fact-checking on your part. I have been a music collector for 53 years. There’s this amazing thing they have now called the internet. Do your homework. Thanks for
letting me vent.
Allahu akbar.

Took 30 minutes to even begin discussing the album in question. Disgusting rambling and offensive “humor” on way to a discussion where they actually have to look things up to cover the material. Don’t waste your time.
