  • Absolute respect!

    Anytime I hear someone my age (read: old) say that no one makes good music anymore, I want to shake them and make them listen to any one of Scott’s monthly new releases episodes. Great new, inspiring rock music has never stopped and I’m grateful to have this amazing podcast to learn so much.

    Been a fan of this podcast for years. Scott is an ocean of knowledge about all things music. I particularly love the year-end-review. I always discover something new that I’ll hold on to for years to come. Rock on buddayy! 🤘

  • I love this podcast

    As a rule, I’m not a fan of music podcasts. And honestly, I’m not a fan of all of The Ledge podcasts either. I hate punk. So why the 5 stars? Hudson dives deep and the breadth of his library is insane. Also, no commercials! I skip anything that announces itself as punk, and blast everything else, dancing around my digs like a kid. The Ledge has been my COVID exercise for forever.

  • Hell yeah!

    The best music podcast out there! Garage, punk, post-punk, Scott knows knows what he likes and plays it - no compromise. New music and older gems are always welcome. I discover so many artist, band, and songs from this podcast. Scott’s show is indispensable to me!
