    If you like Guns N'Roses
    Brando gets it done. This is an entertaining and engaging podcast. Some of the guests have interesting stories that you won't hear any where else.

    Not bad but
    I found this podcast through a show that Brandon was a producer on. I started on the first episode and just finished episode 72. So far I enjoy the podcast but do have some issues. The first one is that the sound effects need to go away. I’m talking about the random clips inserted in the middle of an interview. Where I am in the episodes they have toned down but stop them please. Brandon also needs to stop with his incessant need to bring attention to himself. Whenever he plays the shotgun news clip he has to explain himself or make it seem like he’s embarrassed. Just play it and move on. Then there is the constant need to bring up his medical condition. A lot of times it would be fine if he didn’t go overboard with talking about it. You have a guy like Raz Cue who is in a wheelchair and barely discusses it. Even the painter who is a quadriplegic seemed awkward when Brandon kept bringing it up. This is not a personal attack because I think Brandon is a cool guy but it’s the overall look at me awkwardness I don’t like. Lastly he doesn’t like criticism and is rude to people who don’t leave him a perfect review. He doesn’t have to do anything to change based on what I’ve said but I also don’t have to keep quiet about my opinions.

    Tyler Bryant episode
    Great show. Bring Tyler back on or maybe the rest of the band.I caught them for the first time July 2016 opening for ZW&BLS before they'd done the first run w GnR.This band is going places.

    Best GNR podcast out there! Incredible guests, extremely insightful discussion around all things GNR related for any true GNR fan, and Brando is the best...very professional yet funny and thorough interviewer!

    Love this podcast!
    I only discovered this podcast a couple months ago. I went back and listened to all past podcasts. I can’t get enough and look forward to the next one. This podcast inspired me to go the Guns n Roses concert at Madison Square Garden and I was blown away by it. It also made me regret not going to any Axl DC shows. You have reignited my love for this band, so thanks Brando and Scotto!

    Great podcast
    Hold my beer while I comb out my mullet. Initially I tuned in because there was no way anyone could talk about GNR for more than an hour. Wrong. Nice job boys.

    Awesome Podcast!
    Scotto and Brando do an awesome job covering all things Guns N' Roses, from guests that are close to the GnR universe to interesting story's from their own experiences with the band. GnR at the time were a very talented group of guys that were literally living on the streets while writing songs that became Appetite for Destruction which became the highest grossing debut album of all time. And to think that they had November Rain, Don't Cry and You Could Be Mine that could have ended up on the album. Radio at the time was pretty much hair metal and I remember driving down New Smyrna Beach with some friends and the driver was flipping thru the channels and hit on the few opening notes of Sweet Child and kept flipping, I said turn that back because there was nothing on the radio quite like it in the late eighties. So, on the way home I bought the cassingle, with Brownstone, then the CD and have been hooked ever since. So if you like GnR, this podcast is a must listen. Great job guys!
