If you stay subscribed, the show will morph into a whole new podcast about the technology we were promised as kids, what we actually got, be what’s coming next. Stay tuned for Michael Hainsworth’s Where’s My Jetpack on this iTunes feed!

Really sorry to hear this podcast is ending. I’ve really enjoyed listening the banter between Allan and Chris. I will miss the weekly podcasts. Maybe rethink the format and content for a more general podcast about technology geared towards a general audience on a less frequent basis. Thank you...Read full review »

These 2 are great together. Looking forward to the return after Labour Day. And to the guy who disputes that it is the world’s most popular podcast...have you heard of tongue in cheek?

Not by a longshot. Never even heard of this show before. How can they claim to be the world's most popular? They're not even on any of the top lists.Read full review »

I love the show. Alan and Michael have AMAZING chemistry. I wish they did the show more then once a week. My only critique is the music clips Micheal plays are way too long! Sometimes I forget I’m listening to a podcast I get so lost in the song. Also the sound effects are a little dated and...Read full review »

Enjoy listening to the banter of Alan and Michael. It’s a great complimenting biz, entertainment and technology.

The new format isn’t great and the lengthy interviews are too much and often uninteresting. 20 minutes talking to a guy who makes a sort of popular meme? Blah. Also, if we’re being honest, the OHNM podcast coming around has cannibalized this podcast for me. Don’t need to listen to it to hear...Read full review »

I stumbled on G&B just after it’s first year, and haven’t turned it off since. Prior to this I had been a long time fan of Alan Cross’ “Ongoing history of new music” and it’s been amazing to be able to tune in to continue to hear his thoughts on the music industry. Michael Hainsworth brings a...Read full review »

I really look forward to Wednesday afternoons when a new episode comes online. Alan and Michael do a wonderful job of sharing interesting tech and musical bits and before I know it, the podcast is sadly over. If only it was longer. If you're interested in a casual podcast about music and light...Read full review »

Music is always relevant, and what doesn't involve technology these days? Each episode is worth a listen and describes this ongoing history.

Alan Cross and Michael Hainsworth compliment each other very well. It's a very entertaining podcast, and you can sense the genuine passion they both have. I grew up listening to Alan's "Ongoing History of New Music" and I was very pleased to discover this podcast. Keep up the...Read full review »

The guys have great chemistry. Very funny too. If you are either a music, or tech guy (or gal) this podcast needs to go on your list.

What a great new podcast to discover. The interaction between Alan and Michael is amazing. The trivia facts are presented in a very entertaining way and the production/sound is extremely well done. I love the little sound effects and music pieces in between. Keep this coming!

A friend recently turned me on to this podcast and I've listened to every episode since. Alan and Chris do a wonderful job hosting, sound like they're having fun and cover a really nice range of topics. Such a fun, fresh alternative to many bland podcasts out there. And they do a really...Read full review »

Your show is great and I love getting a little bit of home through your podcast. I always loved Alan Cross segments Ongoing History of Rock on Y108 and The Edge 102.1. As a Canadian now living in the USA, it's great to get a bit of home from your podcast.Read full review »

I found the Geek and Beats show one day whille in the bathroom. Why in the bathroom? Its the only time I have peace to find new and interesting podcasts to listen to.

For me, there are few moments that get me as excited as seeing that a new G&B episode is available. It's more exciting than Christmas Day 1985 when I got both Castle Grayskull AND Omega Supreme. More exciting than the summer of 1989 when I held the top score in Zaxxon at Cookies Arcade...Read full review »
