  • painful to listen to his voice

    Jeez this guy's voice is just painful to listen to, as gravelly as a sandbar in the Snake River. I had to pop a lozenge to soothe my own throat because this guys voice/throat is SO BAD! A 100 cigarettes and a full bottle of whiskey a day for the last 10 years must have done this damage because a normal person doesn't end up with this croaky/raspy/gritty/gruff voice. Just terrible.

If you’d like proof that basically anyone can have a podcast, this is the show for you.

  • Ooopha

    Almost as good as listening to your hot girlfriend try to convince you she knows football because she was a cheerleader in high school. Great concept should’ve handed it off to someone with roots, knowledge and passion about music.
