Discovered the 5 Hunny podcast a few months ago and really enjoying the journey even though I’m so far behind. Ought to catch up about the time Josh finishes but loving all the music since I grew up through most of it. More importantly is the life spinoff life info from the guests. Sinbad blew my mind but I’m getting to know a bunch of comics and personalities who I’m less familiar with plus the coolest raw side steps they make together with the albums as jumping points. Fantastic!

This is my favorite pod cast. Josh and his weekly guest are funny and informative and and I learn something new about the artist every time. A+ podcast

Dansandiego13 · Mar 2025

UPDATE: What I do not like is Josh at times seems ungrateful or rushed like on the Funkadelic episode where he says “I Have to get going I am late…” DUDE, we are taking our time to listen so at lease act like this isn’t a chore. Kinda insulting honestly. So I have been listening to the 500 with JAM and friends for about 40 episodes. I love how the “discovery” of Josh goes along with the record being discussed. More importantly the discussion around what each record means to the people discussing is great. A great example is the Quicksilver Messenger Service episode. A band I have never heard of. But Josh with Morty and Wayne (two guests) go into depth about why this band is important in music and why it is on the list. NO famous guests (those are great too) but the interplay is awesome. I think you guys should go with the three (Josh, Morty, Wayne) plus a guest and maybe do an hour on history and an hour with a guest. Great Job!

Been listening since the beginning and have loved the journey. Every week has been either a discovery of something new to me or a great homage to an album i already know and love. Josh and his guests and staff do a fantastic job of not only being informative but very entertaining and fun every episode.

NotoriousRGA · Nov 2024

I was initially so excited to listen to the episode about Janet Jackson’s Velvet Rope album. However I personally feel the host didn’t discuss the album much at all. The entire episode was an hour or more longer and 90% of it was spent talking about everything EXCEPT the album. The episode started off very strong talking about Janet’s career, but maybe about 20 minutes in - things changed. The episode came off as unorganized, very poorly researched and unnecessary. To end things on a good note though, I did enjoy Tiffany Haddish as a guest. I simply wish they would’ve stayed on the topic at hand.

JanayeNatasha86 · May 2025

Decent podcast if you’re interested in what music your favorite comics dig and why, otherwise lots of tangents/riffing, and little dedicated album analysis. For that, I’d recommend Discord and Rhyme, or the 1001 Album Complaints podcast (both equal parts entertaining and insightful).
