Customer Reviews
If you're a musician, a fan, or breathing, you'll love this show
As a musician, I love hearing anybody talk about rock bands. As a guitar player, I love hearing people talk the way I think regarding John Frusciante. As a breathing human, I love the fun commentary and guessing the country every single week. The show is a five out of five, much like the album By the Way!
A show for true fans by true fans (a dying art)
So glad to have found this show this past week, in what’s been a supercharged and exciting April 2022 for a RHCP fan as big as I am…so naturally, I was searching their name to make sure I had covered all the ground on the various new interviews they each have in places and THIS popped up and I’m sure glad it did. I’ve been longing to find people I can chat about the new record with, track by track. These dudes feel like my friends, helps to have that feeling. So thank y’all
You’ve saved the day!
Omgosh you guys. I have one of those jobs where we have to pretend to be busy even when there’s no work, and I’m tired of all my other podcasts. I looked up the Chili Peppers on Apple podcasts expecting not to find anything. But holy crap! This is amazing!! I’ve only heard two episodes so far, but I get every single reference. It’s amazing! And your accents!!! This American is loving it. Now I have something to keep me distracted until April 1st.
