Executive Pursuits - Op Ed: The Return of Vinyl - if it ever left. - Boston Business Journal, November 19, 2020
“In a sea of shrinking print space and dwindling in-depth journalism, ATB is a rare island of smart, insightful conversation about music. Chuck and Ronnie do their homework, ask meaningful questions, and create a space where musicians can get into the nitty gritty of their work instead of just answering rote questions with rote answers... My favorite conversation of the year.

Plugged in: Podcast from 'suburban band dads' spans music, business, more - Boston Business Journal, December 27, 2018
“My Above the Basement session was the kind of conversation you’d more likely have on a porch (or in the bar) than sitting in front of microphones. It was a pleasure to have such a free-ranging exchange with people who know and love music in general, and the Boston scene in particular.

“If you’re looking for a great listen, search no further than the wonderful podcast, Above the Basement! I loved being a guest on this series, and it was fascinating listening to the other episodes to learn about other local art and music scenes. The format is relaxed, and the hosts are engaging and informed. Chuck and Ronnie made me feel right at home - it was just like sitting in my living room chatting with old friends.

“I had the privilege of talking with Chuck and Ron live from an art gallery in Boston as part of an ATB podcast. These guys were awesome!! It was a refreshing experience to have thoughtful and funny conversation in a relaxed setting with two great guys who clearly love music!
I feel very honored to have been included in their amazing lineup of people from the Boston scene (and beyond!) and
highly recommend that everyone check out the ATB podcast.
