“Off months” take away from “on months”
The Beach Boys are my favorite band and I would consider myself a “hardcore” fan. Simply, this IS the best BB podcast out there. The in depth session by session, album by album approach is exactly what I’m looking for as someone who knows the basic details of the bands history. I love those episodes and await each one with great anticipation. Until you realize it’s one of the months without that detailed look. Just around half of the 12 episode year seem to be “off episodes” where the host just talks to a friend. Usually these friends have only a casual interest in the group and give little to no insight. I just can’t sit through those episodes. For example, it is June 1 and it’s been since January that any album history has been discussed. The ramshackle episodes since have been no more than “this is my friend and they heard a beach boys record once.” It’s like I have to sit through the Disney documentary for like 4 months in a row. Is this still the best podcast on my favorite band? Absolutely. However the “off period” episodes take too much away from the 5 star album review episodes.

I feel like I’m finally having the in-depth Beach Boys conversations with good friends that I’d always wanted to have - but no one else cared enough. This podcast is now a major highlight of my...Read full review »
