I hope the two women who created this podcast see this. This is really a fascinating subject about the brilliant, seldom famous composers who literally create the soundtracks for our lives. They should pitch the show to NPR or Sirius because its much more than your everyday podcast. Interviews are so well researched, its like the music course I always wanted to take in college but never did. They repartee is always light and fun. You can tell everyone’s having a good time. Bravo to Sound Track Stories. Can’t wait to hear who they’ll interview next!
This is a well-researched and extremely interesting/entertaining show!
