“I used to listen to the vinyl café while I was falling asleep almost every night until I was 11, and I still do sometimes. It was such a big part of my childhood, my family has all the CDs, we got to see the show live a few times, my older sibling even met Stuart once when they were three. Thanks...”Read full review »

“I just love listening to all of Stuart’s Vinyl Cafe stories. But I must admit I really enjoy Jess’s intros, with the ‘back story’ behind each one.
Personally, I would prefer if you did one Vinyl Cafe story each podcast, which would of course include your background comments before and after...”Read full review »

“Thank you so much for making the beloved Vinyl Cafe stories available again. Stewart’s voice is such a familiar comfort. My 4 year old laughs out loud while listening; it’s been a pleasure to have him request a ‘Dave story’ and listen while playing play dough. Thank you!!”

“I love this rebroadcast of the wonderful Vinyl Cafe stories by Stuart McLean. But I took one star off for the incredibly annoying ramblings, often personal, of the host. The Vinyl Cafe stories stand well, very well, on their own. Let them.”

“Hi Jess!
I’m so happy you have brought a form of the show back to life. I’ve loved The Vinyl Cafe since its inception and saw one live show in Kingston many years ago.
My dad was in hospital in Peterborough before Christmas one year and we kept his spirits up by reading Dave cooks the Turkey....”Read full review »

“Grew up hearing the vinyl cafe in my parents car on Sunday afternoons. When I grew up and left home, hearing Stuart’s kind voice and lilting delivery always made me feel like I was home. We really miss him.
Thanks Jess and Greg for bringing it back, and letting us hear our friend Stuart once again.”

“After seeing Stuart live years and years ago, it is such a breath of fresh air to hear his voice again. His animation and energy when he performs is just amazing. The podcast transports me right into the stories and did such a short while I am somewhere else. So glad this podcast exists.”
