The Classic Rock Album-By-Album Podcast is the podcast that endeavors to review, dissect and discuss rock albums and to answer the burning question... Is it a classic?
Music, movies, television, rambling... contentforthecultured.com
Music: it's good. On each episode of Strong Songs, host Kirk Hamilton takes listeners inside a piece of music, breaking it down and figuring out what makes it work.
We review pop culture, including TV, movies, books & music, until we can't stand it anymore...and we nix it.
Welcome to the Poolside Podcast, where we discuss alternative music, gaming, and all other things media. Grab a drink, and sit back and relax, Poolside.
We review Marvel's new show and a much-hyped new movie. Also discussed: Muppets, Caroline Kepnes, Concrete Rose (Angie Thomas), Morganville Vampires (Rachel Cain), Doctor Who, Dogma, Servant, Search Party, We Ride Upon Sticks (Quan Barry), Home Before Dark (Riley Sager)
