Customer Reviews
Not the full face of Ptown
This was a fun listen as I am someone who has spent 2wks a year there for over a decade. I was disappointed (as a lesbian) at all of the complaints of lack of women. She didn’t even bother mentioning bear week which is the absolute friendliest week there and as a woman I have never felt more welcome and loved but I guess that didn’t fit her narrative. Overall good podcast
Journey of sound and community! Great listen
I’ve listened to almost every podcast on Apple. I love the episodes that have the ability to immerse me in the lives of those being interviewed or explored in each episode. This podcast was so captivating in this beautifully simple way; it's a vibrant exploration of sound, culture, and community.
GREAT SOUND QUALITY! Clear but love the small nuances heard perfectly.
The host does a great job drawing out stories that are both personal and universally relatable, particularly from the queer community in Provincetown. These interviews are not just conversations; they call diversity, they provide a unique glimpse into a community rich in culture and history.
