"What the Riff" a new podcast from Dacula

"What the Riff" is a new Georgia based weekly podcast journey through the golden age of Rock and Roll.

β€œWhat the Riff” is a new Georgia based weekly podcast journey through the golden age of Rock and Roll. Where four friends discuss music from a specific month/year between 1965 to 1994. Members rotate picking 4 songs off an album to discuss, and then all of us have a staff pick, along with TV/Movie themes, pop references of that time, and whatever else comes to mind.

The journey started when we found we were continually getting in trouble with our wives in Sunday School. It seemed that each week one of us would answer a question with a song lyric from Pink Floyd, The Who, Rush, or some other Rock band. This would spur another of us to pick up the strand, and before long the entire group had been sucked into a rabbit hole of Rock lyrics. Clearly we had a problem. While we could have just become more disciplined and acted like adults, we took a different path. Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on.

That second path was to unleash our enjoyment of song lyrics and rock music on the world via the internet. That seemed like a lot more fun than acting our age, so we decided to give it a try. Our goal is to bring you a month and year in rock music each week. We'll highlight an album selection and play some songs from it, discussing the group, the time, and whatever else comes to mind. We'll also pull out some songs that were popular to us around that time. We hope that this will bring back some memories and introduce you to some music you might not have heard. So welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends! We're so glad you could attend.

Come inside, come inside.
