The Jay Jay French Connection: Beyond the Music - Podcast Rankings and reviews

The Good: I have listened to all episodes up to Nuno and found them all entertaining. Learned a lot I did not know. I like the format and the questions. Like hearing the guest Lemmy moment. I listen to this podcast to learn things I did not know about Rock and Metal, to be entertained, and to simply just keep Rock and Roll alive in my life. It delivered on all accounts.

The Bad: Sometime too much of the same JJ stories (i.e. “What’s your number,” JJ’s Lemmy moment, “turned down more times than a bedsheet….” All funny the first time but old after the fourth. Also agree with others - keep the Politics out or you will lose listeners. Lastly, turn up the volume. The sound is too quiet.

Seems like JJ has picked up on some of the feedback as the Nuno episode felt less repetitive. Hope to see it get better.

He used to manage me and I’m better for it. Love his humor and knowledge. This is a must listen!

Enjoy the show. Fascinating guests so far.

Just a few criticisms. Not trying to be mean spirited.

#1. I am 4 shows in and have already heard Jay Jay tell the same stories multiple times. The first time was fascinating, the second time was head scratching and the third time you lost my interest in the show. For this show to keep the interest of the listener the show needs to be more about the guest and their stories less about Jay Jay and Twisted stories.

#2. The recording levels in the podcast need to go up. I have to turn up my volume 6-7 clicks higher for this show than any other podcast I listen too. I keep loosing the quieter details of the guest speaker during moments of the interview. Probably has something to do with the Zoom interviews but annoying non-the-less.

I listened to your first two shows (so far). Really enjoyed hearing you and Mike talk- the best part was you both sounded like you were enjoying the conversation and it was a good balance of technical talk, nostalgia and humor! Same with Chef Lomonico.. congratulations John! You really were made to do this! Well done!
