I set out hoping to find a highly detailed, serialized narrative about the complete history of Jazz music which included samples of the songs it discusses. This PRECISELY what I was hoping for. If you have any interest in Jazz, or think you might, I cannot recommend this podast highly enough. I hope it continues for months and years to come.

He labels the segments of each individual podcast episode, labels the tracks as they play, includes graphics and detailed show notes with sources, maintains a website, and updates a Spotify playlist.

Keep producing content, dude. You've hit the nail on the head.Read full review »
