This has become one of my favorite podcasts. Daniel's warm interviews with interesting guests are just a pleasure - it feels like you, Daniel, and his guest are three friends getting together and talking over a beer, with one or more of you holding a mandolin! Wonderful mandolin tips from the...Read full review »

It’s hard to say enough about Mandolins & Beer podcast.

It’s taught me that Mandolinists are a unique breed, and to open my mind and...Read full review »

Two of my favorite things in one one podcast. Go ahead and get a t-shirt, beer coozy and sticker while you’re at it. They’re all worth it too.

This podcast gave me the courage to step up my mandolin game. I have been playing for 2 years. I knew after a year I should invest in a better mandolin. But it was very intimidating. After a few months of listening to this podcast, I felt comfortable enough to figure out what fear I wanted. Now I...Read full review »
