Very informative

As an avid music fan, this podcast really hits the spot. These guys are very knowledgeable and have terrific insights into what makes the particular artist they are reviewing great. These guys know their stuff and it doesn’t hurt that they are fellow conservatives to…. My kind of podcast!

This pod is MY EXACT STYLE

As an Xennial (born in 1981) who grew up w a BMG cd subscription before hosting my own college radio show, my musical “upbringing” tracks very very closely w Scot and Jeff…So every episode I find myself texting high school/college buddies to say check out THIS episode or that one (did we all have a “The Doors phase” in early high school 🤪). KORITFW, gents! Still holding out hope for an Uncle Tupelo mini-episode 🤞🏻

MMJ

From this Louisvillian: excellent dive into MMJ. Thank you for featuring this deserving band. A couple of suggestions: I expect many others listen as I do: walking the dogs, doing chores, at the gym. It would be helpful to repeat the title of the song after it plays. Bc you use so many cuts, for the passive listener “this song” can fail to refer to what this song actually is. Also, at the end, you referred to a Conan O’Brien performance of MMJ’s. For bands in the YouTube era, maybe consider adding to the 5 songs & 2 albums, what video best captures the band. Thanks again. Great pod!
