DarlingJenn · Sep 2024

I listened to a few episodes before reviewing. I've learnt a lot from Amanda's podcast, it's always interesting, a bit like listening in on a fascinating musical conversation at a cafe, or perhaps a crossed-line. I particularly enjoy any content that discusses the 60s/70s/Laurel Canyon. Well done, keep producing your excellent content, its always welcome😀Mark (The Cuckoo Town Podcast)
