“I love the show. Lately I’ve been recommending it to everyone. The conversations make me love music even more. I think the best episodes are with guests that make the host laugh because then we get to laugh along and learn at the same time.”

“I truly cannot get enough of this podcast. I appreciate how seriously DJ Louis, Russ and the guest take pop music. I’ve learned so much about music history, and I have reevaluated music that I didn’t enjoy/get the first time around. I don’t always agree with the takes, but love to hear them....”Read full review »

“Discussing the good, the bad, and the dirty of pop music history, theory, aesthetics and culture through a largely queer lens, this podcast feels like I’m sitting at a coffee shop with my favorite Queer, Music lover friends. Let me clarify, you do not have to be Queer to enjoy this podcast, nor...”Read full review »

“I loved this podcast for several years but lately it’s been the same takes from Louie over and over. They just did a 2023 best of recap and it was basically the same thing as the half year recap. We never need to hear how pop stars like Billie or SZA don’t look like Janet Jackson again. Someone...”Read full review »

“Overall this is an excellent podcast and a fun topic to cover. My only critique is the host has a tendency to rapid fire 20 questions in a run on sentence and the guests never really get to answer them before it’s off to another set of questions.”
