What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

For anyone wondering what Yacht Rock truly is, this is the only place to be. Forget any fly-by-night podcasts or self-anointed pundits aiming to present their versions and interpretations of the genre. Our hosts Steve, JD, Dave, and Hunter defined it all, and along with the spirit of Gene Yachtski, continue to guide us as we expand our Yacht Rock catalogs, learn about the incredible personnel behind the music, and honor the memory of Koko Goldstein.

This review is way overdue! I started listening to podcasts in 2018 and Beyond Yacht Rock was one of the first pods I followed. I was doing a huge installation of plants in my garden during a really hot summer and J.D., Steve, Hunter, and Dave entertained and educated me every day. Thusly, our parasocial relationship began. I love these guys and I listen to and watch all the content they create. I can easily differentiate between Dave and Hunter’s voices — it only took me two years of listening to unlock this achievement. Listening to these guys do deep dives and so throughly explore the yacht genre has lit a fire in me for this music too. I appreciate their broad base of knowledge and their research. I also enjoy that they can be silly, irreverent, funny, sexy, and snarky. Like music, their podcasts are a comforting respite from real life. Keep the fire forever, guys. Love, a fellow jean meat lover from MN.

There are plenty of podcasts with middle-aged white dudes talking about music, but this is SMOOTH music, and these guys are seriously the best. Hilarious, knowledgeable, and—dare I say—vulnerable. I look forward to listening every single week.

The best podcast/pyachdcast to help you understand what belongs on the boat, what is best left at the marina, and what is bilge water that should be discharged posthaste.

(JoMa) · Jan 2024

It’s next to impossible to hear all of what they’re talking about with the background music being 1. The same volume as their voices and 2. Non-stop throughout the entire episode. The parts I was able to hear were great but I had to stop listening because the background music was so obtrusive.
