- The Return!!
I listened to Brian and Bill throughout my entire time in college. Their podcast and opinions have expanded my knowledge on music and how I discuss it with my own friends. Some of the greatest music fans and music “critics” I’ve ever listened too :) I’m so glad they’re back, thank you B&B!!!
