A podcast exploring my favorite music, my friends' favorite music, and all other aspects of music. FYI: I used to release episodes every weekday (hence the "daily" portion of the title). I have since adjusted my schedule to 2-3 days a week (with the occasional bonus episode). I also used to always have five songs in each episode (hence the "five" portion of the title), but nowadays it is sometimes more or less. But I have kept the name the same: Andrew's Daily Five!!

About

A podcast exploring my favorite music, my friends' favorite music, and all other aspects of music. FYI: I used to release episodes every weekday (hence the "daily" portion of the title). I have since adjusted my schedule to 2-3 days a week (with the occasional bonus episode). I also used to always have five songs in each episode (hence the "five" portion of the title), but nowadays it is sometimes more or less. But I have kept the name the same: Andrew's Daily Five!!
