  • Can’t spend all my retirement money, LOL

    I always look forward to the podcast, your three are just so joyful and fun. As always a fun look at the tour and this time honoring Ron Dante, good stuff. Kind of sad the tour is over, I only got to see you in Orange County and while visiting family in Illinois got to go to Effingham. Hope Gary Puckett was OK after a little tumble. Stayed to shake his hand and say thank for bringing this music to the fans. Would love to see one more show but spending all of my retirement savings wouldn’t be goo... more

I swear there was one recent episode where Bob Cowsill wanted to ask a question but he was interrupted so many times by the other Cowsills that we never got to hear it. I STILL wonder what he... more

  • A family gathering

    This has become one of my favorite podcasts. When Bob, Paul, and Susan get the jokes and stories flying back and forth, it’s like being at a big family gathering. (Except that I don’t get a word in edgewise.) (Come to think of it, I’ve also been at real life family gatherings where I didn’t get to speak.) The guests’ stories are enjoyable as well. Being a bit younger than the Cowsill siblings, they don’t tug on my nostalgia heartstrings, but it’s interesting to hear the tales behind the artists ... more
