This podcast is predominantly Dave singing chord names and mumbling incoherent lyrics and I am HERE for it. If you enjoy geeking out about music theory and listening to an incredible musician geek out about OTHER incredible musicians… you’ve found your little corner of the podcast world. ❤️

I love this podcast, it makes me appreciate songs and song writing so much more. Dave is hilarious and has such a great ear. Actually both of them are probably great. Keep up the great work Dave, YEAH!!!

Dave is such a great listen, no matter what he's doing; singing, comedic YouTube videos, or podcasts, like this one and another favorite of mine, Dadville. If you're a musician or singer/songwriter, you'll absolutely love the insight from some of the best to do it, all tied together...Read full review »

Great podcast!! It causes me to go on long musical rabbit trails and reminds me why I love music so much. I would recommend it for anyone who loves music new or old because dave covers it all. Question to dave: You’ve mentioned Thad Cockrell in your conversation with Drew Holcomb and I wondered...Read full review »

I am not even remotely musically talented, but I love listening to this podcast! It is so entertaining and teaches me something new about music each time. Whether it music I was already listening to and something I never realized or turning me on to completely new music. So thank you!

If you are a musician, but have found yourself not having musical conversations like you used to/want to, this podcast is for you. I always learn a little something new, find myself inspired to look even more closely at the music I consume, and enjoy the conversations with the guests he has on....Read full review »

If you don’t add the dominant 7 chord it’s just a John Denver song

Dave is insightful, funny and gives his guests the chance to revisit the moments magic was created. Highly recommended!

Multiple amazing things going in these episodes. First, super funny and high energy. The positive attitude in the approach obviously conveysDave’s love for music and the enthusiasm is undeniable. Second, I love pausing and referencing the hot takes in real time to hear this stuff myself like...Read full review »

Dave is incredibly insightful, humorous and I’ve always loved his tunes — ever since hearing “Grace’s Amazing Hands” from the first note.
Figgy Daste via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/12/20
Me, my Brother and my friends have done this kind of thing for years. I’ve always wanted to hear someone else’s version. Dave kills this. I love hearing the other artists do it as well. Great job my friend.
Watsonaaronl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/23/20
Simultaneously hilarious and insightful, Dave always has great conversations or comments about music that is so often overlooked. Cheers!

Of course, I’m going to listen...but we need your facial expressions!

Merry Christmas!! 🎁 Love listening to your perspective! Loving this podcast so much.
JeanBean88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/20
My only complaint is that the semi-maniacal laugh and “let’s do it!” That Dave would do in the intro when this was an Instagram series got cut. Seriously. That’s it! Love this show and if you have any passing interest in music, you will too! Check it out!
EdwardsDinnerParty via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
So glad Dave took the next step and made this fun idea a more expansive conversation. So many good songs and song writers to talk about! Would recommend to anyone who enjoys music.
Natethegreatalways via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
I have not a single musical bone in my body, but I enjoy listening to music. This podcast has opened my eyes to so many things about music. Plus, Dave is HILARIOUS!
hilarybee123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
Dave is so knowledgeable and fun! Every episode is gold.
MrsMir via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
Dave’s 5 Hot Takes is informative and entertaining. I never write reviews, but I enjoy this so much I want to make sure Dave keeps making more episodes!!

He is an incredible artist, musician, and hilarious! Now he is doing podcasts?!? It really is a nice break to listen to in between true crime. Go listen! NOW!!!
Meechel! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
As someone who loves music but has absolutely no musical talent! 🤷🏼‍♀️ I love getting a behind the scenes look at how music is created and the fun facts that aren’t common knowledge to the average listener!
jennifierb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
He’s the freaking man! These 5 hot takes are brilliant and funny! As an artist I appreciate it so much!!
Sunshine_474 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
Love Dave and his funny antics! It definitely brightens up my day! ❤️
Mamma2adiva via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
I love his thoughts on music. I’m a better listener because he’s pointing out things I love but never paid close attention to. Funny, thoughtful, genuine, all the things. Dave Barnes is fantastic.
Anneadair via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
Don’t want to miss an episode! Chock full of so much of that music stuff that I can’t get enough of!!

I love Dave’s humor, his take on life, his music and now his expertise of music. I’ve learned so much just in a few episodes. Keep it up.

This for the Al Gore Rhythm.
jaybchattanooga via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
I love Music and Dave is so knowledgeable. Honestly, 10 out of 10. I’ll give a 12/10 actually because he is a semi-pro comedian. Great Job Dave! Keep it coming!

Dave brings his signature humor while diving in to music theory and history. Such a great listen every time.
The Masseys via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/20
I have loved Dave Barnes since the first time I ever heard him at a songwriter round! Not only is he musically talented as a singer and songwriter, but his magically insane sense of humor make me giggle like a little kid constantly! His perspective on music, and life just make me laugh, and make...Read full review »

KatGad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/20
I seriously love this podcast! I love music and learning about the process of how songs develop and are created. This unique podcast dives into songs and their own uniqueness and it’s so fun hearing Dave’s (and his guests) take on songs. I’ve learned something new during every episode and Dave is...Read full review »

I love Dave’s Brave Hot Takes, but I’m here to see if Al Gore actually has rhythm. I’ll believe it when I see it! 🥁🎹🎤
EricKuhn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/20
Dave’s five hot takes (YEAH!) gives you insights into songs you know and don’t know that will blow your mind. You will learn, laugh, and love as Dave takes you on a stroll down the musical yellow brick road. Enjoy!
