  • Outstanding podcast

    I’ve never heard the Pumpkins. Billy Corgan is one of the best interviewers/Podcasters I’ve heard yet. He asks all the questions & talks about the things people want to hear. Very intelligent conversation.

    Magnificent podcast. I always steered away from the “Alternative” scene. Just not my thing. I stumbled upon this podcast and am so stocked how cool Corgan is. So down to earth and relatable. I don’t miss an episode now.
