ABOUT WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE
Dave and Holly started this podcast to talk all things 80s, but mostly music. Since then, they’ve branched out into the 70s and 90s on occasion, and even into the 2000s, when they’re feeling it. But their true passion is for the music played on the World-Famous KROQ in Los Angeles in the 1980s. They’ve welcomed a wide variety of guests into their studio….musicians, authors, film directors, producers, radio personalities...turns out there is a collective passion for the music of the 80s!
