    Ivy Insights

    The KSHE Tapes podcast is a must-listen for any fan of classic rock and behind-the-scenes stories. Hosted by John Ulett and Favazz, this podcast brings new life to old interviews and provides listeners with a unique perspective on the music industry. As a listener, I thoroughly enjoy hearing the familiar voices of Ulett and Favazz, as they bring their own expertise and humor to each episode.

    One of the best aspects of The KSHE Tapes podcast is the behind-the-scenes information that is shared throughout each episode. Ulett and Favazz have years of experience in the music industry and their insider knowledge shines through in their discussions. Whether it's sharing anecdotes from their personal interactions with musicians or uncovering interesting tidbits about a particular song or album, these insights add an extra layer of depth to the interviews featured on the show.

    Additionally, the choice to bring back old interviews is a fantastic idea. Not only does it allow long-time fans to relive classic moments, but it also introduces newer generations to the incredible talent that has graced the airwaves over the years. Ulett and Favazz's enthusiasm for these interviews is contagious, making it easy for listeners to get swept up in the nostalgia.

    However, one potential downside of The KSHE Tapes podcast is that it may primarily appeal to fans who are already familiar with KSHE 95 radio station. While Ulett and Favazz do offer some context for those who may not be as knowledgeable about the station's history, there may be instances where references or inside jokes go over some listeners' heads.

    In conclusion, The KSHE Tapes podcast is a worthwhile listen for anyone interested in classic rock music and behind-the-scenes stories from the music industry. With its engaging hosts, informative discussions, and revived old interviews, this podcast offers a unique experience that will keep fans coming back for more. Whether you're a longtime listener or new to the world of classic rock, The KSHE Tapes podcast is sure to entertain and inform.
