I'm a second time reviewer and have been listening to you for years. You have the most unique take on the music podcast which is one of the main things that make me listening. Thank you for the laughs. I second all I said in my first 5-star review. For now, I want to thank you for finally covering my favorite song of the 70s. 'Night Moves' is moody and steamy and just plain HOT! Bob Seger's smoky yet smooth voice is perfect for it. Thanks Rachel for bringing it and thank you all for your comme... more

This show makes me smile from beginning to end continually, and I recommended to everyone I know! And if some money bags from Los Angeles doesnβt step up to broker a deal with Weezer and fund the production of that jukebox musical idea you guys had, it will be a crime against humanity. Iβm mean, seriously, βBlue: A Buddy Holly Musical (featuring the songs of Weezer)β needs to be made so freaking badly!
Just sayin.
