Excellent!!!

I just listened to the episode regarding the four new Beatles movies. Great show and just like one of the hosts expressed, I hated the film “Yesterday” too!!!

Love this Pod!

I come here all the time just to hear their takes on what’s going on in pop music, but the Taylor Swift episodes with Brian, Brittany, and Rob are my favorite! They have such an extensive knowledge of Taylor lore it makes the deep dive really informative and funny!

Best Taylor Swift commentary ever

Please never ever stop making episodes about Taylor—Brian, Brittany, and Rob are the ultimate Taylor authorities to me and no one else is able to place her as well in the greater context of music history. Love love love the Taylor episodes, it is not possible to make too many of them!
