CBRS Podcast 63 | Voice Of Holland Blind Auditions Week 1

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=coldbeetrootsoup/62221f04 Hey everyone, welcome back to the CBRS #Podcast! In this episode we switched things up a bit and dove into the return of #TheVoiceofHolland. After a five-year break (it stopped around 2021 due to some serious issues with misconduct allegations and jury-related drama), the show kicked off again in January 2026, and we decided to check out the first blind auditions episode together. We watched several performances and shared our honest takes: The opening act (a 24-year-old woman who looked way older) had a solid, unique #voice, though not mind-blowing from the first notes. The coaches turned pretty quickly. A few others felt like the judges were being extra picky this season, searching for something truly special rather than just good singing. Standouts included a powerful older guy with great energy, some rock-flavored entries that got us excited, and one high-note killer at the end who really impressed us. We noticed a lot of safe song choices, niche styles, and moments where contestants seemed nervous on stage. We agreed the show feels faster now (everything pre-recorded), and the coaches seem focused on building strong, winnable teams. Overall, it was fun to see fresh talent emerging again, even if not every #performance blew us away like in the early seasons. We reflected a bit on our own #music backgrounds and how shows like this mix raw voice, personality, and potential. To wrap up lighter, we chatted about dad jokes, planned some comedy reviews for next time, and joked about still figuring out our podcast niche. It was a nice, casual vibe — hope you enjoyed tagging along! Catch you in the next one.
