The Hookblast Podcast with Mike McCready

Mike McCready

This is the podcast where we discover a few new catchy songs. I only play the hooks so you never have to listen to an entire song you don't love. You add the ones you DO love to your streaming playlists or follow mine. · Rock out all week and the next week we repeat. Oh, I don't like to brag, you know, in the show description, but I should mention that I am the best podcast host in the whole history of podcast hosts. And sometimes I tell jokes. -Mike read less
