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.
Came into this pod a little later and still about 2 years behind. Loving the guests and the evolution. Its fun. Jump in wherever you see an act or guest you like. Have recommended to friends and they agree that’s it’s a fun one. Thank you Josh!
Need more name drops. I’ve heard more about Tom then Master of puppets. I like how you took the MASTER and made it about DND then automatically talk about Tommy oh, and I never knew JAM is a musician and played in bands his whole life!

Discovered the 5 Hunny podcast a few months ago and really enjoying the journey even though I’m so far behind. Ought to catch up about the time Josh finishes but loving all the music since I grew up through most of it. More importantly is the life spinoff life info from the guests. Sinbad blew my mind but I’m getting to know a bunch of comics and personalities who I’m less familiar with plus the coolest raw side steps they make together with the albums as jumping points. Fantastic!
