🎵 Over on Scripting.com @dave mentioned that back in the day he was a fan of The Monkees. Unashamedly - so was I. He linked to this show. It’s long. The narrator (that’s what he sounds like) - has a boring voice - but still an interesting listen.
Never heard of the 🎙️podcast - so had a look at other episodes. Just as long - and I suspect that the voice will be just as boring - BUT - some really interesting deep dives into some good songs and bands. I will be listening to this one - the band ‘Love’.
