This is an excellent podcast on our beloved Prince. The narrator is devoted. Great content with a funky background that really left me wanting more episodes! I have listened to them all, twice!
CNN style identity politics and culture war

Grumpy Double Bass

The host seems to lay thick layers of the identity politics and CNN style culture war editorializing a couple of times each episode. It seems disingenuous seeing as how CNN, MSNBC, NPR, FOX, NEWSMAX et al are all pro genocide and consent manufacturers of Middle East warmongering. There is no difference between any of them except their variety of engineered domestic polarization.

This podcast is a great example of how to hold love for a person while seeing all their faults. Not forgiving their mistakes, and loving them, still. The interviews with people who worked with Prince are PRICELESS. A lesson in journalism. Good work. I’m a Prince fam, too. My grief for the loss of him is alike unto yours. I know there are many we share this loss with. Our hearts are joined, still standing in the purple rain, laughing. And yes, I do know what Purple Rain is. Drink it up.
