“This is my first ever negative review of a podcast. I listened to Episode 232, which is (supposed to be) an interview with a USC Music Business professor. Unfortunately, the interviewers seemed to have a specific agenda with regards to their questions. You could tell they already had specific...”Read full review »

“I’ve been a listener to Music Biz Weekly since mid-2011 and it’s the only Music Marketing Podcast where I’ve listened to every episode at least twice! Some I’ve used as resource material and I’ve probably listened to them northward of 10 times each.
Hoping MB will get up the whole back...”Read full review »

“I generally try to get away from dogs barking, poor audio, and hyperactive ex-rockers when I settle in to a podcast, but of late: you get all of that with this show. I just don't understand why a podcast's audio quality cannot reach the level of a Maron or Ira Glass with all of the tools avail to...”Read full review »

“An an indie musician, this is my first and last destination for advice and inspiration. So, it's lucky for me that Michael and Brian are crazy. Smart and insightful, great. But they are also legitimately nuts.
Michael has three shows (possibly more by the time I write this) and Brian publishes...”Read full review »

“I enjoyed listening to the part about abandoning the old band name when a key member/partner quit. When that happened to me , I soldiered on too long under the old name, hesitant to abandon it because I had invested so much time, money, and sweat creating the branding. Problems arose when the...”Read full review »

“I am a brand new artist and the way I was about to begin my music career I was headed for disaster lol. I've just found you and Brian Thompson about maybe a month and a half ago and I'm learning a part of the business I never thought about. You may be shocked but a lot of artist don't know what...”Read full review »

“Simple, to-the-point, enlightening, inspiring, exciting, friendly.
