Customer Reviews
Why You Love Music 🎶
My Weekly Mixtape is a reminder why fans should be listening to music: choosing songs that have a special meaning to us. Brian is a charismatic host, and so knowledgeable curating great themes about anything! His special guests make each episode just as enjoyable.
My New Goto Music Podcast!
Over the last few months, My Weekly Mixtape has become my goto music podcast. The show’s format is unique so no matter what the topic is, there’s something for every music fan. Sometimes I don’t know every song discussed on the show, but there are always playlist linked to each episode, so I can hear the songs I’m not familiar with. Brian makes sure the conversations are very laid-back & relaxed. You can tell the guests are genuinely enjoying the discussion. I look forward to this show every Monday to start my work week. Keep up the great work!!
Mix and Match songs
Before itunes, spotify and other streaming services, the way you build a "play list" was putting together a mix tape. Be it your favorite songs from an artist or your own version of a K-Tel collection tape. This podcast brings back that joy and frustration of trying to make sure that everything fits and flows. Great podcast that compels you to follow along.
