*Caveat: I only recently started listening to this podcast, and have been cherry-picking episodes from the back-catalog. Like the concept of the podcast, and Joe is great in his role as resident expert and ringleader. Additionally, most of the guests are very entertaining and add something to...Read full review »

Great conflicting views and music legacy tests - and has reconnected me to music I had forgotten about

Found this pod after Joe was on SPY pod. Great in depth and insightful discussion of musicians and music. Lots of humor too. Both hosts Kristen and Joe are a great balance for each other. Burning through the back catalogue now.

I have been listening for years, and I enjoy hearing folks talk about music that I (in many cases) have a lot of nostalgia for. Joe’s knowledge base is great, and I appreciate his passion for it. Kristen is a great foil for him, and their interaction is fun.

Always a good time with Joe and Kristen. 🤘
Nirio Godoy via Apple Podcasts · Brazil · 01/17/24
You know what Rock and Roll needs? Idenity politics. Female host is all of the terribly trite NPR opinions one would expect. They sure think themselves funny (they're not) they love a good "white people" punchline but are incredibly sensitve to anything that might be deemed racy. ...Read full review »

I love this show

She did say ‘it’s ALWAYS chicken’, though.
Don Botswana via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/08/23
Updated JAN 2023: You must never stop. Do not quit. It keeps getting better! My kind of music nerdery and insider intrigue. I’m hooked. Keep it up. The caliber of guests, including actual hall voters and nominating committee members, is impressive. Must-listen podcast about a mostly-unimportant...Read full review »

Consistently well-researched, thoughtful, and hilarious. I look forward every year to tuning in and following the eligible/nominee/inductee cycle with Joe and Kristen.
JordanP213 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/23
Feels weird to say, but I’ve learned so much from this show—not just about the history of music, but also how the industry views itself. I was mourning the potential loss of the annual FYE countdown episode, so what a delight to see it in my feed this week. Please keep it coming! Especially the...Read full review »

I left the 5 stars long ago, but wanted to welcome Joe & Kristen back after the hiatus and looking forward to the draft and this years coverage. Thanks for making such a great podcast.
Beatlematt. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/23
So happy the show is back! Joe and Kristen are both funny and knowledgeable while bringing on the best guests who have great conversations.
KUNK3L via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/23
Please come back. The draft is gonna be so interesting this year. I’d hate to not hear your takes. I love the pod.
koreytroll via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/12/23
This has become one of my favorite podcasts and I’ve gone back to listen to previous years’ episodes. Joe does an excellent job researching and organizing each episode, and the guests are always engaging and knowledgable. I’ve learned a lot even from episodes about artists I didn’t think I was...Read full review »
kebitokyo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/06/22
I've been listening for years and feel bad that I'm only just getting around to rating it. Joe and Kristen are SOOOO good at what they do! They really balance each other with a perfect blend of knowledge, humor, and editorializing. I've learned so much through this show, especially...Read full review »
MsGigglejuice via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/05/22
This a great show! Interesting and funny! Recommended for anyone who likes music or halls of fame.
Mr Markham via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/04/22
This amazing podcast has triggered many deep dives into artists I would have never found otherwise. Despite the snarky title, the “rock hall” theme is merely a vehicle for a perpetual debate about early influencers, emerging legends and icons across almost any genre, ranging from rock to rap to ...Read full review »
AppyMann via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/02/22
The best podcast out there about the rock hall. And really just a great music history podcast. I’ve learned many interesting deep facts from this one. Subscribe now and hopefully they will be back soon with one of the best episodes every year where they play clips of newly eligible bands game...Read full review »

What a great way to talk about rock with knowledge, humor and personality, and meet some great people along the way! Gather round the hoagie and let’s discuss!
majkPPS via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/02/22
Great podcast even if you don’t care about the Rock Hall. Hoping they come back after the break with new seasons! The episodes with the First Time Eligibles and the Drafts are always a blast. They find awesome guests for their deep dives into an artist. I enjoy the historical aspect of the show...Read full review »

I look forward to this podcast coming out every week to help me get through my work week. I hope Joe and Kristin take a much needed (and well deserved) break and can come back rejuvenated for the next induction cycle!
ticewatert via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/02/22
Never have Joey Devine on the show again.
Irv Davis' Wingman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/28/22
As a weirdo who’s obsessed with the rock hall, it’s a highlight of my day every time an episode comes out. My friends are sick of listening to me rant about this topic and now I get to listen to my pretend friends talk about it! The rock hall is endlessly fascinating (again, if you’re a weirdo)...Read full review »

Love this Podcast listen to it every week! But i hate the Country Music Slander! Hopefully with Dolly’s Induction we see one every other year. Shania Twain has the Best Selling Album of All Time of people not in the hall. I am a Shania “Stan” and i feel the passage of the torch goes from Dolly to...Read full review »

Fantastic podcast. Joe and Kristen do a wonderful job talking about this weird and wonderful institution. 5 Stars. Would recommend to any music lovers
issybee2430 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/04/22
An excellent pod for the extremely niche audience of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame enthusiasts. Helping change the rock hall one cis, het, white boomer at a time!
Matt Loveranes via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 05/10/22
I wasn’t sure what to expect, but this is an amazing show - full of humor, insightful and extremely interesting. I’m so glad I subscribed and look forward to new episodes. Keep up the good work!
Dcr07 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/06/22
I was a little hesitant about this show at first, but I’ve become a convert. This is the best Rock Hall podcast out there. The hosts are smart
SatansToast via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/18/22
I only discovered Joe & Kristen's gem of a podcast a few months back, but man I am already completely addicted. It's been a long time since I've had this much joy going through the back catalogue of a podcast of any kind. If you're thinking, "But I'm not so interested...Read full review »

I stumbled upon this podcast and as a Rock Hall fan myself, I find it interesting to listen to and I’ve checked out a bunch of old episodes as well. Wish I knew about it earlier.
Guinea pig88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/22
The serious lack of them mentioning my second favorite band Molly Hatchet and them totally dismissing my number 1 favorite band Kiss won’t stop me from giving this radical podcast a 5 star rating.
Jeff "Wild Man" Beers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/22
This show makes me actively more excited for the announcement of nominees. Actually, it makes me superlative-free EXCITED for the announcement of the nominees.
coolbeansmeehan via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/02/22
Great pod with knowledgeable hosts. The only downside is they and their guests really show their age when talking about anything late 90s-on.
Tyte Man via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/22
My current favorite podcast. A lighthearted, entertaining, and informative look at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the bands who are (and aren’t) in, and all of the drama and politics that go along with it. Most of the guests are top notch and Joe and Kristen are funny and work well together as...Read full review »

I’m surprised to hear myself saying this - this is my favorite podcast. I’m not a music writer or insider. I’m not a stan for the hall. But every week, this is the podcast I wait for.
TheJChizzle via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/31/21
If you watch the ceremonies and participate in the fan vote you’ll like it.
Slimdickly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/29/21
I thought I knew quite a bit about the Rock Hall until I started listening to Joe! He and Kristen are so fun and informative about this much maligned but still highly thought about institution.

Great show

I've been listening to this podcast regularly for about six months. I just listened to the b-52's episode and loved it. They are my new biggest snub. I also enjoyed the most recent episode of Foo-ly about the history of the rock hall honoring itself. I still don't love the hate on...Read full review »
