    You deleted literally your entire back catalog. Thousands of episodes, and only 21 random ones available. Don’t even bother.

  • Quality declined

    Used to be awesome! Now it isn’t so good. I see that they’re trying to diversify their guests and experiment with new formats but the quality is super uneven. Part of RA’s broader shift away from good editorial content in favor of being a ticketing platform with advertorial content on the side.

  • For an Electronic Music Noob, This is a Goldmine

    I know very little about the world of electronic music except the fact that I like it. This podcast is informative and captivating. Martha is such a talented host, I’d listen to her on any show. Love this show for long drives.
