Welcome to Tabletop Genesis, where you will know what it means to be a lamb lying down beyond the silver rainbow while Duke dances on a volcano. Actually it's just a few friends sitting around a table talking about their favorite band Genesis, but it promises to be as equally silly and surreal. Join your hosts Simon Godfrey, Stacy Godfrey, Mike Lord, Eli Noetinger, and Tom Roche as they wax poetic on everything Genesis - from the songs to the tours to the evolution of Mike Rutherford's facial hair.

Customer Reviews
Best Podcast Ever
I can’t believe how great fans Tabletop members are and how great this podcast is. I am the same age as most members. Got started as a fan pretty much the same as others. Unfortunately I live in Vancouver Canada (Phil Collins ex-wife and kids live here) and have never seen them in concert. Like Simon, I am more of a Peter Gabriel fan and have seen him in concert. This podcast is packed with knowledge and light entertainment. It is a special treat to listen to. Love the format. Please keep it up. I will probably go back and listen again.
Informative and Fun!
I have been listening to the Geneis Tabletop podcast since their very first. There is nothing better than throwing on my earplugs and taking a two hour walk with the Tabletop 5. They are informative, fun, homourous and challenging, which is everything you want when discussing the band Genesis. I have been a fan of Genesis since 1979, and have read every book and watched every video on the band and their solo efforts. Given all those wonderful documents on the band, this podcast tops them all for sheer information and entertainment value. Rock/Prog on Tabletop!
