“I just finished this podcast, this the 1st day of 2024. Insightful, and inspiring. Would love to hear more in the future, but if not, this was a real treat. A fun guide for a fantastic, exquisite album in ATUM. The Smashing Pumpkins are in a league of their own.”

“This podcast provides great insights from an historically great band, but next time, use one host not in the band who understands music. The wrestling guys sound like wrestling guys, and while I liked wrestling once upon a time, their tones of voice are so jarring.”

“I stumbled upon this podcast because I saw a TikTok about it. This is an amazing podcast for those of us who have always wondered what the meaning behind the music is.
For as long as I can remember, my mind has constantly wanted to interpret what I’ve been listening to. This is a really cool...”Read full review »

“A well crafted and ever evolving presentation welded to an absolutely fascinating and rare musical exploration with an eloquent and strongly opinionated artist. What a treat. Mr Corgan is a superb soapbox speaker with a force of will that nails even the most incongruous or non-sensical viewpoint...”Read full review »

“I’ve been a huge Smashing Pumpkins fan since the early 90’s and always loved the music, concepts and creativity - and uniqueness of Smashing Pumpkins.
Atum is by far yet another fantastic addition to the catalogue and this podcast is just brilliant.
I love the deep dive and additional...”Read full review »

“I listened every Wednesday morning as it was my only day working from home. I love the stories behind the old songs. I laughed out loud while listening to the story behind “Eye.” My favorite was episode 21. I never realized how good of a song “Shame” is. Magical. The story behind the “today”...”Read full review »

“Such a great podcast with insights, great new tracks from Atum and old classics but my favourite bit is how Billy (WPC) deconstructs thoughts, systems, world views etc and by the end I feel like I can reflect on myself and how I interact with the world with a whole new perspective. My long time...”Read full review »

This podcast has far exceeded whatever hopes I could’ve housed as it not only delivers an unfiltered avenue for WPC to speak his mind...”Read full review »
