by Saved By Old Times Podcast
Saved by Old Times is a musical discussion podcast where two best friends blindly introduce each other to the full discography of their favourite artists. Along the way, we do song-by-song reviews, take a very unofficial look into a band's history, and surprise each other with truly awful puns and hidden gems of trivia. Tune in for Season One, where we delve into the every single Deerhunter album! New episodes air every other Monday.
