Customer Reviews
What a find!
Thanks Simon for putting me on to your channel. I’ll be busy catching up!
Fantastic Podcast!
I don’t know why it took me so long to find this podcast, but I’m glad I did. Genius. Simon and Brian are great hosts – the level of research and analysis they put into every episode is fascinating and must make their guests feel very loved! Please keep it up guys, you rock!
Listen even if you don’t like the artist
These interviews are always fascinating even when you don’t think you like the artist or even haven’t heard of them. Simon and Brian always do their homework and always manage to get a great interview as a result. The fact they also play snippets of songs means you get to hear what they are talking about and quite a few times I’ve found myself buying the track/album as a result.
