    Master Storytelling, a must listen for music fans.
    I discovered Patrick on TikTok and he quickly became one of my favorite follows. He is great at telling stories and educating you on music history in an entertaining way. Looking forward to many more episodes. Only one negative…that theme song has to go. Decent melody and awful singing.

    Can’t get enough!
    I have recommended this podcast to all my friends and we listen to it all the time at work. My only criticism is that the music is always five times louder than the dialogue so I’m always ready to dive for the volume button.

    Love this storytelling
    Patrick gives me something that I have been missing for awhile in a podcast. He delivers a thoughtful, knowledgeable, and entertaining deep-dive into my favorite topic - music. Thank you for your hard work and sacrifice for my entertainment, Patrick.

    Awesome!
    Came from TikTok, and so glad you decided to keep this podcast going after hearing you weren’t sure if you had it in you to keep going. As long you keep it up, so many of us are here for you!

    Favorite pod
    Came over from tiktok, easily one my recent favorite podcasts. I hope he continues this. It is clear a lot of work goes into this. I randomly jump up from my cubicle and tell my coworkers something new I found out from this pod.
  • LA&DD
    Great storytelling
    Without fail I literally say “what a great episode” out loud after each. Patrick is a great storyteller who I first followed on TikTok. It’s nice to hear him in this longer format
  • Sarah Scott
    Fantastic Podcast
    I first found Patrick via TikTok due to his mystery short stories of music history. This podcast is amazing. Learning about music’s untold stories is the best way to discover music and artists. You will not be disappointed with Patrick’s stories, voice and podcast production.
  • Nnbianca
    I’m obsessed!
    I binged all these episodes in two days and I need more. Patrick is a fantastic story teller and a great interviewer as well! Excellent work, sir.

  • JenPetty
    Comfort food for my ears
    Patrick is a great storyteller and his music knowledge is incredible. Even when it’s an artist I’m not particularly interested in, the storytelling keeps me engaged and interested.
  • April is Over
    Great listen
    I love having an interesting, well-researched - but also light and escapist - pod to listen to. Even when he’s covering bands I don’t particularly enjoy, I love the stories. I’ve been following the author on TT and am glad to see him expanding his repertoire. Great job, Patrick!
  • jackiejackiebootysmackie
    Love of music
    Obviously I found Patrick on TikTok. I love his way of telling the artist story. The way he captivates you in such a short time is simply genius. He covers all genres of music. He doesn’t just have a love for 1 or 2. He loves them all. This podcast is even better, which I didn’t think was possible. I look forward to each new episode.
  • djmattbeck
    Educational and empowering
    I cannt imagine the research, knowledge and time that goes into this podcast. Nevertheless, Need to give thanks to Patrick for this amazing experience and time to reflect upon musical history which impacts us today.

    Storytelling this good should be illegal Patrick Misdemeanor Hicks
    Originally watched Patrick on tik tok for his musical history stories. The podcast is even better as we get an even more in dept listen to some great artists. Love hearing the journeys some of our favorite artists went through to get where they are. Gives hope to fellow musicians and dreamers. Great stories, very well told.
  • 3l Magnifico
    Can’t ask for more
    This is the perfect podcast for anyone who enjoys music. Interesting, informative, and just plain fun.
  • Hannahjxhxyxhbsjz
    New favorite podcast
    Great storytelling and a refreshing format! He makes me care about artists I’ve never listened to before, and I love that he doesn’t say their names right away so you can try to guess who he is talking about :)

    So good it's not fair
    Discovered Patrick on clickclok. This podcast is so good it's not fair to other podcasts. Brings new layers of depth to my understanding and appreciation of music.

  • Kayke
    The new Paul Harvey
    Patrick is a wonderful storyteller. I am not “into” music history, but the combination of storytelling with the slow reveal to a household name reminds me of old NPR. I can’t wait to see how the podcast evolves. Patrick is a skilled storyteller and has a lovely cadence.
  • EllieMelv
    My favorite storyteller
    I can’t get enough of this dude. He showed up on my TikTok For You page a couple years ago and I’m thrilled to see he has a podcast now. A must-listen for music nerds!
  • WBSchaefman
    Reminds me of “pop up video” on VH1 but better
    Patrick is a great storyteller. The stories are always so well researched. Absolutely the best podcast for anyone who loves history, stories, and music.

    Just Great
    Amazing story telling about music acts
  • Hershoranj
    Great podcast with an even better delivery
    Something about the way this guy tells stories. Started following on TikTok and so thrilled. There is now a podcast! I probably only follow a half dozen podcasts in total. And now I follow this one. Five stars for sure.

    History + Music = Perfection
    Love this podcast…learning so much, Patrick Hicks always finds the perfect spot where history has influenced music the through research only a devoted music and history lover could deliver. Fun little surprises are his specialty 😎
  • my cup do not touch
    Great stuff
    These are fantastic stories. One thing though, some of your levels are peaking on episode one. Work on that and this is a top five music podcast.

    This Guy
    This Guy Patrick Hicks could have taught my History of Rock Music class and then some there is not a story or genre he can’t cover! Listen listen listen is all I can say.
  • justwanttheapptowork
    Cannot recommend enough!
    Great storytelling and details covering music and musicians. So compelling, unique and just love the reveal of the artist as the story goes. Sometimes it’s easy to guess, but still so fun to get all these details and nuggets along the way. Wonderful!
  • fjgj04

    Missing 4 star
    Just felt the little 4 star was missing out. These are great stories and I enjoy his style, humor & the way the story unfolds! P.S. here is the fifth star Patrick deserves. *

    The Best New Podcast of 2023
    After being spurred on from the overwhelmingly positive response from a popular video social media platform, this creator has successfully made the jump from short form videos to longform podcast stories. So many other podcasts show the obvious growing pains from novice hosts, Patrick comes across as a seasoned presenter, with superb stories, pacing, rhythm, constant intrigue, and interest even to those who feel they are well steeped in the lore of music. I look forward to many hundreds of episodes in the future! Incredible podcast, 10/10, and I immediately subscribed.

    Does Not Dissappoint
    I’ve been a fan since stumbling across his IG content. As a music nerd, I can listen to his content all day! Amazing storytelling!
  • suzannakins
    Must listen for music lovers
    I always enjoy his TikTok profiles so this deeper dive is great. I’m realizing how little I knew about some of my favorite artists. Patrick is a captivating storyteller.
  • Faux Wineaux

    Great Podcast
    Fantastic story teller! Well researched and written and really draws you in to the story. Made me interested in artists that I previously had not given a second thought to. Keep up the fantastic work!
  • Jetsetcarina
    Music + Storytelling Genius
    Obsessed with music and storytelling? Good Measure is the best of both. Patrick builds killer narratives that connect musicians to big picture themes, sharing details you never knew about your favorite artists. Can’t recommend more highly.

    So Good
    I started out as a fan of the TikTok stories and I’ve always said to myself “dam I wish this dude had a podcast so I could listen while driving doing errands” well now we have one and it’s awesome. As a music lover and fellow nerd of information and back stories this is RAD.
  • iuhnggty

    Loving the podcast. Looking forward to more episodes!
  • Sabbatduro

    Thank you!!
    Thanks for doing this! I’ve followed your tiktok for a long time and have looked forward to how you would grow. This is so exciting!
  • Ginamamaria
    Wow! I’m blown away
    I am a huge fan of your TikTok content and I was excited to hear some longer form content from you and I was not disappointed! No spoilers- but your 3rd choice for a solo artist is my absolute favorite of all time and cried with joy and sorrow as you shared their story. Thank you Patrick!!!
