Cracking good podcast for any 90s alternative rockers

Amazing documentation of a music era I lived through and loved but was too young to realise what was happening. Now as an adult I’m old enough to appreciate the subtexts and the greater movements at play that I was blissfully raging to and singing (or screaming) away to as an angsty teen with no idea. No wonder my parents hated it so much …and why I loved it. Thanks for the story telling Danny!! Can’t wait to listen to them all.

Great Pod!

Unbelievably broad and detailed portrait of (let’s be honest) the best decade for independent music ever, the 90’s. So much gen x nostalgia. Super well researched and presented. Loads of “behind the scenes” content. Awesome Pod! Going back for a second listen!

Just Ace

Thanks so much, Just Ace has been just that. So fun to hear you geek out on the bands I loved but equally good when you took me into 90’s niches I didn’t connect to at the time. I’ve got some homework to do. Bring on season 3.
