Customer Reviews
Stop saying Patre-own
Since you say it 6 times an episode. It’s —on like off/on.
One dimensional music show
If you listen to music to reinforce your social justice cred or have a weird thing for young women yelling into microphones then this is the show for you. If you actually just want to hear people talk about music, better keep looking.
Love It
Sound Opinions is a part of my weekly routine. I look forward to it.
