Bandsplain, one of the best podcasts of all time, has done a multi-part series on Madonna. I just finished ep 1 and it was brilliant

hello friends: the BANDSPLAIN + 60 SONGS live show in L.A. weds. 1-29 is very much still happening (sold out alas); it'll be a little weird but hopefully also lovely + cathartic

To introduce myself:

I mostly write about music, with a focus on indie rock and pop. I am the managing editor of Stereogum. I've written about sports, TV, tech, religion, etc. for a lot of places and gone on podcasts like Popcast and Bandsplain. My debut book Such Great Heights is coming next year.

There’s like five minutes of Bandsplain talk on the latest Blank Check Special Features episode and ZERO MENTION of the guy who got David into that show in the first place…

Did you listen to the recent Bandsplain with Jenny Eliscu that covered the Yeah Yeah Yeahs?

Oh non j'ai découvert un nouveau podcast avec des épisodes de 4H sur un de mes intérêts spécifiques (ça s'appelle Bandsplain)

From everything I’ve gathered listening to what feels like 1 million hours of bandsplain, the hardest and often most important part of becoming a successful band is finding a drummer who doesn’t suck
7 out of 10 bands need a better drummer. I think a great drummer is the secret to everything.

The Bandsplain podcast multi-part series on the history of Madonna is SO good. It should be taught in schools.

Do you feel qualified to talk about anyone on the Bandsplain podcast? Who?

TIL, thanks to the Bandsplain podcast, that Radiohead opened for Alanis at one point

2/ Coincidentally their #1 choice song The Man Don’t Give a Fuck also has a recent & highly detailed podcast dedicated to it by Bandsplain - I once listened to their mindblowing epic Mazzy Star episode back in the day (2023).
Dunno why there’s an Union Jack obvs

The Bandsplain podcast (on @theringer.com.web.brid.gy) is putting out an indie sleaze draft today and, while I haven’t listened to it yet, I anticipate for the foreseeable future that I will be unwell and cannot attend any functions.
