Customer Reviews
Move over Howard Stern...
I enjoyed listening to the reviews, music talk, and other topics. Although I suspect that Joey and Ray are probably furiously homosexual.
Cover the Topics.
These guys are deff on the right track into Hardcore music to Indie Pop Punk. In there latest podcast they have Andy from Defeater and a "World Premier" of Dear Father a new song from them. Totally in at 1 min, jaw on the floor. I can not wait for that record. Been following these guys since they were a whole different band. Any way listen to this podcast they cover the topics that need to be heard.
Pump up the Jams
Cool dudes from Cali hanging out and talking about stuff they like. Very laid back and casual, always makes for a fun time. I wish I had friends like this.
I like that they include the person they are interviewing for the entire show rather than bring them in for simply the "interview portion." The reviews are relevant to my interests.
Two requests: Longer song clips. Play an entire song instead of a fifteen second clip for what you are reviewing. Also, the volume is too low. I generally cannot listen to the show with headphones and have to max the volume in my car at times.
