  • Fun to Listen to (More than Once!)

    Over the past 6 years, I have listened to this podcast 4 times. I just enjoy the humor. I /love/ Adam’s music theory knowledge that adds so much to understanding Joel as a musician. The fake ads are hilarious. It’s just a fun podcast and everyone should give it a listen. After all, whether you’re a Joel fan or not, one of the hosts agrees with you.
