I love No Dogs In Space, specifically for the way they describe an era thru a few episodes focusing on one band, and also describe that bands history and how it was meaningful/impactful. The chatting is cute, but not a must.
I also love Tides Of History.
Bizarre Albums is fun for a glimpse at specific periods for artists. Your Favorite Band Sucks is less historical than that, but still a good listen.
Thanks! Do you have any episodes you'd recommend to start with?
Bizarre Albums had a good episode on Neil Young's Trans and Your Favorite Band Sucks knocks it out of the park on stuff they still kinda like, so maybe there Bon Jovi episode.
Just remembered, one of the hosts has another podcast on Country music history called Cocaine and Rhinestones.
I'll check out the Bon Jovi episode, thank you so much. I've heard that the host of Cocaine and Rhinestones embellishes a lot of "history", do you know anything about that?
I do not, actually. I wouldn't entirely doubt it, though. I'd imagine most of it is him not checking his sources well enough or just going by heresay, based on having friends and family in the industry.
