    Lovely digestible chunk of GD every week. Fun show selection.
  • Jerid P
    Weekend go to
    You can watch as many documentaries as you want or love all the beautiful memorabilia, but if you listen to this weekly you really begin to understand the depths of the dead and will turn into a real deadhead. God bless John.

    Professors Rock!!!
    I just turned my barber at Tiger Barbers in CoMO onto The Professor. Made me reminisce about my early days as a new Prof at Mizzou and the first time I caught John’s Friday evening show on “the mighty fine 89”. I looked forward to my Fridays, and my graduate students were quickly baptized in tie-dye and Grateful Dead shows. Thanks Professor. Peace and Keep Truckin’.

    Thanks Professor for all the incredible music you’ve shared. Like a warm blanket thats on fire with the electricity pinging off the moon and stars back to our radiating ear drums playing a hypnotic chorus of eternity. The Dead Pod is alive in Japan! ありがとございます🙏!
  • Levi_What

  • Bleauchard
    Love The Professor
    Always good for digging up some of obscure jams as well as important milestones and putting them into the right context, while keeping the music front and center.

    One man gathers what another man spills
    It is nice, as I move through my 60’s, that some of us still get great pleasure from this fine music
  • undulatingnavel
    Thanks for exploring!
    The 60’s tapes are so potent. I have high praise for every show that steps out of the well-trodden 70’s; but, the 60’s shows give me the biggest smile…all full of rainbows and such.
  • Manjuro
    Better than Lemieux
    Well curated selection of full GD shows. Always excellent.
  • OR stylee

    Great cast. Do you know what show Jerry was playing brokedown palace in the wrong key,stops the song and crack s a joke before he goes back into the right key and plays it again. What show
  • quackhorse
    Best Dead podcast out there
    The Professor does a great job of picking out a set each week! I always enjoy his intro and recap to help share context! Look forward to every episode each Friday!
  • swileyriley
    The best podcast around
    Long live the dead!
  • The Dukestar
    ❤️

  • Jonnyrim5
    Best part of my week
    Thank you professor, Fridays are the best days of my weeks becuase i get to listen to a new Deadpod!! This is the best podcast out there! Thank you and keep up the great work!!!!

    A Weekly Gift
    Thank you to The Professor for these end of the week curated Dead sets. Always a hoot.
  • CharlesO1989
    Enjoyable always
    Love how the format is usually set one the first week and set two the next. Dig the Professor’s highlights recap at the beginning of each episode. Also appreciate the info he shares on the venue and date for context. Born in ’89 I wasn’t lucky enough to see Jerry, so I’m grateful to get to explore the Dead from ’65 through ’95 with this singular podcast. I’ve been listening in to these time capsules since 2009. The Deadpod has been there for me weekly through the bad times and the good times. Can’t thank you enough Professor!
  • Hahahjkdea
    This will get you out of your show rut
    Despite the seemingly endless catalogue of live tapes to the Dead’s name, I sometimes find it difficult to explore. I’ll find myself going to the same specific Rubin and Cherise (4-7-91) for example. This prevents that. I look forward to each new installment and have a blast with it each time. Highly recommend.
  • Chris, Charlotte NC
    Absolutely Perfect!!
    All killer, no filler!

    Mighty Fine
    Have listened to The Professor ever since I was an undergrad at Mizzou in the mid 90s. Miss the days of hearing him on The Mighty Fine 89, KOPN, Columbia, Missouri. So happy to be able to share him with my kids now. Thanks Prof!
  • HelloCutie26
    Grateful for this podcast
    I look forward to this every week! I love listening to a whole set, uninterrupted. This is especially great for those of us who have gotten on the bus more recently.
  • e-horn
    Grate podcast!
    Love this ❤️
  • Geek bearing gifts
    5 stars because I can’t give 10
    Love the no frills host. Gives a brief overview of the set and any little trivia items of interest and then right to the music. Also, getting to hear the style changes on certain songs over time is great with this set up where the concerts are not in order by year.
  • Twerk4thepeople
    Listen up kids
    The Professor knows what he’s talking about.
  • Joebobhst
    Awesome stuff-
    The Prof. knows his shows! Once in a while there is a dud, but 9 out of 10 times the audio showcases the Dead at their supreme finest!! Thank you Professor
  • Zanguine
    Excellent Curation!
    Great host, great music selection. There are many audience recordings that I haven’t heard in the official releases.
  • JohnnyIron
    It’s simple Great
    I love the Professor and his weekly picks. I look forward to new Podcasts every week. And it’s fun to spin the dial like wheel of fortune and see where it stops! Never disappoints!
  • Missed her bill

  • jh4310
    Excellent Pod
    The Professor is the clearly man and a master show curator. So many good selections 💯
  • Mostly Dave
    Love this show!
    Never written a review before, but after listening to this for - can it be over ten years? - it’s about time I give credit where credit’s it due. The Professor is reliable and consistent and never lets you down! Nothing elaborate, just straight from one head to another. Thanks for the years of great listening!

    TGIF
    I haven’t missed a Friday with the Professor for over a dozen years and there’s no finer way to kick off the weekend. 💀⚡️🥀
  • JohnnyHasbeen
    Great deadication!
    I’d been listening to only 1 podcast for years. And this was the one! You have always picked the best stuff! Thanks Professor! Many thanks!!! My sentiments exactly so I’ll leave them live on brother
  • AbedisBatman
    Favorite
    This is the best podcast.
  • Steffen Enni
    Always interesting
    I came here for the music, but the introductions are just as interesting. Thank you for putting in all the work to make my Friday’s so much better.
  • Chilly Jackwater
    MUCH better music taste than The Professor from Money Heist
    The Professor always comes through with shows you probably haven’t listened to much. And he picks them gemmy gems! Thank you for all the work and care you put into the Deadpod. Bella Ciao, Professor!

    We are sooooook thankful for the Deadpod. We love you!
  • josiwax
    Deadpod is great
    Professor/John does a fantastic job of curating a high quality set week after week both in terms of audio quality and the bands playing. Even with a huge variety of options to stream the dead I never miss a Deadpod.
  • RevTed
    A Weekly Treat!
    I love looking forward to Friday’s, because I know there will be a new episode in my feed from the Professor. His deep knowledge and deeper cuts (blemishes and all) are a highlight of my week!
  • SL in Brooklyn
    Friday Morning Tradition .. wake up and listen to Deadpod
    I’ve been listening to this podcast since close to its inception, and I can’t believe I haven’t reviewed yet. The Professor is, simply put... the MAN. He picks out a choice set each week and gives a brief, but informative intro that gives archival information about the band and the zeitgeist of dead heads at the time of the show. Thanks Jon for all your hard work and DEADication
