Great Podcast

Very worthwhile podcast as Ryan dissects albums from various genres and goes deep into each track, discussing history, meaning and impacts of the music, lyrics, album art and production. Thoroughly enjoy it!

Fantastic Discussions about Amazing Albums

Ryan does a fantastic job at choosing important albums from a wide range of artists. He is knowledge, charismatic, and I find this podcast to be one of my very favorites :). I highly recommend it.

Love the diversity!

The Broken Record Player Podcast, and its host Ryan, really takes apart these albums! I love how you can tell this guy loves each of these albums, and he has a really ecclectic music taste! Black Metal, Jazz, Hip Hop, Art Rock, etc, it's all covered here in these albums. I love the idea of picking a great album that both the host and the guest(s) love and then discussing it. Makes for great conversations with a purpose. Keep it up!
