Growing up steeped in the stew that was 90’s Christian alternative music and the culture surrounding it, this pod caught my attention a couple years ago. I dabbled in a few episodes, but really became a Magnified Podder for Life with It’s Hard to Find a Podcast. (Pedro the Lion and Starflyer 59 have been, and continue to be, two of my favorite bands since high school.) John and Andrew speak about music, sounds, and lyrics in such a descriptive and compelling way that it draws me in even if I don’t particularly care for a band they’re dissecting. The prologue to each episode generally includes current events, personal life updates, and fun food surprises. (If you don’t like this part of the pod, do you even care about John and Andrew?!) I couldn’t recommend a better podcast for stirring up nostalgia and helping it fit into current life. You might even discover some new (or old) music along the way.

Pop punk wasn’t really my thing, but I’m a sad bastard, and the bands they are talking about this season are for me. I appreciate the sharing of life and history for these guys because I’m on a similar journey to them and sometimes it gets lonely out here. They have some real insight into the...Read full review »
