Hi Joe and Kristen. My fave pod, been listening for years! Wish ApplePodcasts would stop making me unfollow you for some reason, and randomly I just have to remember to check on the pod homepage for new episodes. Still will continue to check in despite the mishaps. Take care!
I truly enjoy the annual Jimmy Pardo episodes. And most of the guests are terrific and knowledgeable without trying to dominate the discussion. Joe is a wonderful host who understands pacing and how to have a discussion. Kristen though, is there to derail flow with interruptions and uninformed opinions. It would be great if she didn’t feel she needed to jump into the middle of every sentence sometime else is saying so she can state her opinion over theirs, only in an incredibly unfunny way.
Solid pod with knowledgeable hosts/guests. The only downside is they and their guests really show their age when talking about anything late-90s on.
Tough listen sometimes as the rock hall moves on from the 70s and the hosts talk more and more like the establishment they used to complain about.
Knowledgeable opinionated and fun. I care about "Who Cares About..."
i love it
