  • Missed opportunity

    Nice idea for a podcast but never really gets past the idea that every song is Stephin merritt singing as stephin Merritt. A bit more of a ‘death of the author’ reading would lead to a much more interesting convo and also give Merritt the merit due. Meh!

  • Magnetic duo

    Love this podcast! I’m hearing these songs in a whole new way. The back and forth between Ben & Sarah is fun and sweet and I appreciate their chemistry when walking us through each song. I look forward to try he on air “research”, the descriptive words, the “yeah of yeah” additional songs by other artists and of course, the rankings! Here’s to that good cornbread love!

    I’ve never heard of this album or band before, but these hosts get me so pumped for the music every single episode. They have such a relatable enthusiasm for music, and I thoroughly enjoy hearing them discuss it. Such a lovable, entertaining duo!
