I don’t like being pointed at by a picture and that’s what I get when I click on this pod.

Absolutely loved this podcast! Dave’s storytelling and wit make these episodes fly by. I didn’t want it to end. I wish he would do more like it or even a sequel. Would love to find something similar to get me through work days!

Really enjoyed this podcast. As expected, Dave approached this with his intense focus and generous heart. It’s a fun ride with surprises along the way.

A deep dive into a group that made a brief appearance in a Boyz II Men video? Right up my alley! And if you are a child of the 90s or a lover of pop culture, it should be just your thing too. Dave Holmes is a smart, hilarious, and talented writer (in addition to being my vote in the 1998...Read full review »

Every Dave Holmes project that I’ve seen or heard is excellently crafted, and this podcast is no different! Every episode is interesting because Dave is so interested; each guest is fun and without guile, which is fertile ground for Dave’s curiosity. Thanks for such a fun time!

Yes, this podcast answers the questions about who were those guys and what happened, but it’s so much more. Dave Holmes examines success and failure, the music industry in the 1990s, “taking big swings” and so much more. Especially for anyone who likes to create stuff, this podcast is a must-listen.

Such a smart interesting podcast.

Dave Holmes is the best podcast host I’ve ever heard. I would listen to anything he hosts.

Dave Holmes dug DEEP on this wonderful series. Really fun from start to finish. HIGHLY recommended.

Just pure fun.

If you like Heavyweights, you will LOVE THIS! If you lived through the 90s, you will LOVE THIS! I didn’t want it to end. Feel good and relatable. Listen now.
MamaCass13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/22
I went into this podcast with mild expectations of re-living some great early 90s memories. What I got was a masterclass in storytelling, all based around a pop group that no one had ever really heard of. The degree of difficulty in making people care about something that by definition didn’t...Read full review »

It may seem like this podcast is about an obscure boy band from the 90s…but I promise you it is much MUCH more than that. As an artist, I really resonated with the message to go out and do what you love no matter how niche or obscure. I’m at a crossroads in my creative career and this podcast...Read full review »

Thanks for taking me back!

This series is EXCELLENT. I was 11 in 1991 and thanks to my older sister, got every reference. Hilarious storytelling and such a great saga.
LankaKitten via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/22
This is such a treat. Especially as researched and told by the goat MTV VJ. Such great story telling!
CapnGeechnshrimpshackshooters via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/22
If I never have to listen to an interview with Aaron Kane again, it would still be too soon. Ruined two episodes for me.

Just world-class storytelling. Beautiful!
sde136 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/29/22
Dave, please continue to make other shows- this was amazing, so much more than I thought it would be. Great job man, keep going.
terpdandan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/29/22
Being a child of the 90’s, this podcast hit me in all the right places. Loved the tone, vibe and interviews. I hope you put out a season 2. I could listen to Dave and his passion all day.
simplySTYLISH.ca via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/24/22
Interesting blast from the past! Unexpected interviews that sort of seemed unrelated at times and then looped right in with messages of hope and resilience. Worth a listen for sure!
ElizaJane17 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/23/22
Dave is a great host and I hope he does more podcasts. This was a wonderful idea for a story however it felt as if he had enough material for 4 podcasts and stretched it out to 10 by interviewing random folks and telling their life stories even if they weren’t too related to the main quest. And...Read full review »

What a piece of…craftsmanship! A must (binge) listen! Whole heartedly endorse on so many different levels - nostalgia, inspiration, story telling even historically. A poddy extremely well done! What’s next bro???
TreeLV via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/22
This was a fun and well-produced podcast/walk down memory lane for early 90s and 2000s. Sorry Margaret Cho - love you girl!
Sugar82382 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/22
Nostalgic and uplifting. A great retelling of a time and one of those cases of “If this was a movie no one would believe it.”
Geo'sMomma via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/12/22
Beautiful meditation on flourishing after failure. Uplifting and thoughtful. An antidote to hustle culture.
Sovereign Syre via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/07/22
This podcast is really great! I loved every minute of it and the passion behind investigating such a specific moment in music history, and finding the story of hope and perseverance behind it really has helped me maintain optimism as I am trying to pursue a career in entertainment. Exactly what I...Read full review »

I’ll generally read/watch/listen to any non-fiction with passion behind it. I was sold on the concept and was still blown away. This is one of my favorite podcasts ever. There’s passion oozing out of it and Dave Holmes totally understands the assignment. Take a story, give it context, and tell us...Read full review »

I started listening because I’m always interested in revisiting and reminiscing about the 90’s (and 90’s music). But this show was so much more inspirational than I expected. I took a lot of great nuggets of wisdom from this. Really enjoyable podcast & surprisingly relatable.
HeatherTJP via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/21
I had no idea who Sudden Impact was before I listened to Dave Holmes' DELIGHTFUL passion project. I loved this podcast way more than I thought I would (no murder). Dave is a masterful storyteller who will make you care about 5 white guys more than you ever thought possible or even necessary....Read full review »

I loved it. I think you will too.
Ankhurley via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/27/21
Very fun run through the 90s. The host is such an obvious fan. Really fun to listen to. Really fun to remember stuff and learn stuff you had no idea was even happening in the 90s even though you were there. Great show. Really interesting interviews. I do have no memory of the sudden impact even...Read full review »

Worth the listen! Even better than I imagined, and I learned a lot about the culture I missed as a toddler. A fascinating, well-told story, and superbly produced.
Al. Fo. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/25/21
This is the most amazingly unexpected podcast I never knew I always needed!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Everyone needs to listen!!! I would give more than 5 stars if that was possible!
28clairebear via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/21
As a 90s baby who grew up right at the tail end of this time period, getting to hear all of this music history was fascinating and fun. As a musical theatre major who has been trying and failing to make her mark for the last 4 years through NYC auditions and Covid closures this show struck my...Read full review »

In 1991 I was 8 years old and obsessed with music, dancing and MTV. This podcast brought back such nostalgia from that time. I was much too young to be so entrenched in some of the music I was listening to and videos I was watching, but it was the 90s, if you know you know. I loved this podcast...Read full review »

What a random focus for a podcast, yet this is somehow so interesting! This podcast is really well done. Enjoyed it!
happydogmisha via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/18/21
Beautiful storytelling! Weirdly emotional throughout. Everyone remains so hopeful and grateful. Do another one Mr. Holmes!! I will definitely listen.
PGRLover via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/21
I grew up in the 90s with the casual disinterest in music that only a child with older cooler sisters could maintain. This show has been a highly listenable, fun, and engaging tour of Michael Bevin’s west coast family, various and excellent guests, and the eponymous sudden impact themselves. I...Read full review »

My god this is the best thing I have heard in a while.
Stinamarie84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/21
A Dave Holmes master class in fame, daring and creativity. Just what I needed to hear. And if you’re a creator or want to be, it’s probably what you need to hear, too.
