You Love Music, You’ll Love This Podcast

Dave was born in the middle of 80’s rock, and is more about it than me, and is more passionate about it than me. I listen to it while doing yard work, and before I know it the yard work is done, and I’m starting the next podcast. How he and Shane get the people they get, I don’t know. They get some huge names in the music industry.
