Best Music Podcast

A great music podcast. Varied subjects and styles. Hear something new, or something old. Join in the conversation. It's all here.

God I've Missed You Guys

Stumbled across your new podcast and everything in my world is happy again. You have enabled me to discover so many new artists since your South by South West podcast on the old show last year. You guys get me through the working day and brighten up my life. Just need to work my way through the 90+ episodes I've missed! Roger from Sheffield, England
