Customer Reviews
CCTV is a Rare Gem!
Finally! A pop podcast filled with insight and knowledge about the music industry. Chris and Chan are very informative and fun to listen to! They break down all things pop including K-pop, so rare! Entertaining, relevant, and keeps me waiting for the next episode. Five stars all the way!
Not bad
They definitely have a great thing going. Informed, fun and really interesting. I don’t listen to K-pop but they are making me a little interested in the machine . Recent episode audio is a little strange but still enjoy them so I won’t take the star away
Probably the most underrated podcast
Chan and Chris speak on kpop from a perspective which blends industry insider as well as technical musical/dancer expertise. I like that they avoid the usual fandom cliches in their music commentary thanks to this perspective. I like their concise and punchy format. And, do what it’s worth, this is the only kpop podcast I’ve given a review, and I write this as the person behind the Kpopcast giving this podcast my endorsement.
