Hi Joel- This is Heidi, Max Lagunas’ ex girlfriend. Just wanted to say hi, and love the podcast. I think about you and Benj a lot from the early 2000’s, I still miss Max every single day. I’m so happy that you two are doing so well. Happy Holidays to you and your family.

First, the Mic’s on this show are crisper than crisp. Love the sound guys. In saying that, I graduated 2006. As I’m scrolling through this catalogue of people Joel has interviewed…literally goes from my childhood in the 90s til the re-explosion of rock in the 2000s. It’s like FINALLY peeking behind the curtain, GOING BACKSTAGE and chilling with the band, seeing how they grew up, put together their music, and how music sometimes saves lives. On this side of the stage and on the stage. Awesome podcast Joel. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🖤🎶♾️🎤 Edit:How did the Coheed podcast LITERALLY just give me the answer, the guidance, & the inspiration to face my grief (my fiancé & best friend; ODs). How did it apply SO much. This podcast made me want to cry in the best way.

I found this podcast a few months ago randomly. I really enjoy the conversations Joel has with his guests. I love music and hearing the stories behind the journey. I’ve also discovered people that I’ve not heard of and that’s interesting as well. If you like this podcast you should also check out Peer Pleasure with Dewey Halpus. Keep the good episodes coming!

Just listened for the first time. Found show by searching for Trixie. This was a great discussion and entertaining! Joel is now in my queue.

Just discovered the podcast via the interview with Trixie Mattel. Terrific. Hysterical. Now I want to hear more.

It’s so nice to hear from Joel this often and discover new artists! I just listened to the Bea Miller episode and wanted to second Greetings from California to come out on stream! I bought the CD when it came out and still rock a hoodie, amazing album.

This podcast has quickly become apart of my weekly routine. I look forward to a new episode each week and am never disappointed. I love how raw the conversations are and how Joel let’s everything flow organically. I’ve discovered so many new artists and learned more about artists who's names I’ve been hearing for years. Having grown up with Good Charlotte’s music when I was a kid, I feel like I’m hanging out with an old friend every week. I can’t wait to see what Joel continues to do with his platform and have nothing but respect and praise for all the hard work that goes into, not only this podcast, but successfully running a business while simultaneously being so present in his family. It’s inspiring, insightful and straight up awesome! Go listen to Artist Friendly! You won’t regret it! 🤘🏼

Just finished the latest episode with Noah & I now love this podcast. I really appreciated the flow of conversation & found myself totally immersed. For me, introspection & self awareness is so important & I love hearing it on this podcast. Being able to listen to others speak their truth in an honest, open, and reflective way is a nice change from the day to day small talk. 100/10, would recommend.

What a refreshing, genuine podcast. I initially gave this a try because Good Charlotte was a major part of my life growing up, and the premise of the podcast seemed interesting. Doesn’t disappoint. Joel is a great interviewer. He really lets the artists speak while somehow still offering opinions and insights here and there. This is not a “plug my newest album” interview. You’re really getting to know them. If you want to be inspired, listen!!!

Joel has been a hero of mine since I was 16. Looking forward to the pods!
