- Better than you think, these stories need to be told.
Billy is getting a lot of flack in the comments for his ability to interview…stop, he gets to places others can’t, well spoken. Compare him to the other “popular” podcasts and this is better. Keep it going, these stories need to be told!

United States15 days ago - I really like Bill, but …
he’s a bit sloppy or just lazy with his research prior to interviews. Too many cringe-worthy mistakes and wrong facts with guests.
Apple Podcasts3DP’67United States24 days ago - Sort of like a “where are they now?”
He picks the best guests to interview, people you never hear about anymore. Highlights are Courtney Love, Pat Boone, Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, mostly the music industry guests are the best ones.
