What happens when you make a mix tape for a friend? How do you compare one person's favorite music collection to another friend's favorite songs from just one artist?
Pop vs Rock is where two souls come together to share their tastes and their world/perspective of music. Both explore the universe of music in completely new grounds, and share their opinions together. What makes this so important is that the podcast can help show others with no experience in a genre find bands and/or songs that they like to enjoy music on their own.
