Been a fun ride and a Sunday morning ritual! Keep it up for 7 more!

Both the hosts sound like they would fit naturally on the air

To misquote Springsteen in his song "Growing Up" I found the key to rock history universe in the engine of a old parked podcast. Sonny and Steven are the cosmic kids and when people say sit down, they stand up!

Great co-hosts one has better taste in music one is ok but together they are on fire.. If you like fun and shenanigans this is the podcast for you

I happened upon this podcast just about 4 years ago on a recommendation from another I listen to. I really appreciate the passion Steven & Sonny have for the music of my lifetime but also give some love to the bands still creating new music, many of which I’d never have heard or even given a chance had it not been featured on Growin’ Up Rock! I look forward to what they have to offer in the future!

Hahaha! That caused me to spew some coffee this morning Good one Thanks for the laugh

I’ve been with you guys since the beginning. The show has a great production and has great topics! Congrats!

I love being able to listen to some of my favorite songs and then hear the commentary provided by Steven and Sonny. I feel like I am hanging out with my old high school buds reminecing about the best years in Rock History!! 🤟

Discovered the show thru SIOLcast. Steven Michael makes a great pair with Sonny “The Horniest Man Alive” Poony. Great rock commentary and whether you agree or disagree with the two you find the humor and retrospect great.

My second time listening to you guys. Enjoying!! Yes, Do a “Novelty Song” episode!

It started last year with Van Halen’s album reviews and you now have a fan.

New listener here. Really enjoying this podcast. Especially the deep dive into the Van Halen albums.

Discovered this podcast after hearing Sonny on a SIOL album review, loved his wit and humor and him having his own perspective on things and not being sorry about it! And listening to Steven is same. These guys don’t always see eye to eye, which makes it more entertaining! Opinions are expressed and explained with facts and humor. And of course each week it goes back to my all time fav band, KISS!! Growing up Rock is on my must listen each week with Talk Is Jericho, and SIOL 🤘🏻

This podcast is BRUUUUTAL!!! If you like two salty dudes hating on everything this show is for you. I listened for some time and they just don’t connect as good music podcasting.

Subscribe! You won’t be disappointed. 🤘

Steven and Sonni work great together, especially when they do not agree on something. They come up with clever ideas to incorporate great rock and roll music into their show each week. Well worth a listen each week!

I for a long time didn’t try to find new music, because I didn’t think there was any good music out there. Sonny and Steven have introduced me to so much new music that I have to keep a list the artists to remember who to go back and listen to, as I have a hard time remembering names. I have several podcasts I listen to and this is one I look forward to every week. I really like the show notes, so if you are listening while driving, you can go back to see all the artists they talked about. If you give it a try, I think you will be happy! MrSpeed67

I listen to a lot of podcasts for research of my own podcast. This is one the best researched music podcasts you will listen to. You can tell tell Steven is a true music fan and excited about the music. Game recognize game. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻 The Chuck Shute Podcast

Steven & Sonny have a variety of themes and episode topics, but one thing remains constant- It’s all about Rock n’ Roll! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

They say rock is dead, but that’s not true. It’s out there, you just have to find it. Sonny and Steven do a great job keeping Rock alive. The podcast highlights new rock music and discusses the classic rock I grew up with. I highly recommend this podcast if your a fan of Rock N Roll. Keep up the amazing work Sonny and Steven! I look forward to this podcast every week!

I love the diversity of music discussed and the varying opinions of the two hosts. I was turned on to this is a very roundabout way. Negative comments directed towards a Jody of a Kiss podcast (by a Dr) lead me to search out Podcast Rock City. Sonni far and away steals that show, which lead me to Growin Up Rock. Thank goodness! This is a go to podcast for me!! 5 stars.

This podcast is hosted by 2 Rock and Roll fans who like some of the same things but don’t always agree on others. Love the way they talk like friends at a bar. Also love the Crank It Up part. And especially the KISSTORIC moment segment.

I subscribed to this podcast after the crossover with Cobras and Fire. Description for each episode is awesome. I checked out Battlebeast after one of your episodes. You made a three hour podcast about Rock cruise entertaining. This is a must for people who respect real rock.

Let me start by saying I’m probably older than most who’ve reviewed or commented on this or any other podcast. To be honest it took me a bit to figure out how to even leave a review. Although it sounds like I’m technically challenged, I’m not really. Enough about me, this is for Steven, Sonny and their Growinuprock Podcast. If you’re into learning more about rock/metal artist then this is what you want coming out of your speakers, earbuds, headphones etc....These guys are really easy to listen to and you get the bonus of actually learning something new and hearing some great music. If you’re offended by a few four letter words then...too bad, get over it!! Use a Q-tip after listening to an episode and move on to the next episode. I believe they’re coming up on their 100th episode and that in and of itself speaks volumes (see what i did there). For me when I just want to chill, it’s great to kick off an episode on my phone or iPad and just relax. Keep doing what you’re doing guys and we’ll keep being enlightened educated and rocked🤘🏻🤘🏻

Just started listening the “Growin’ Up Rock Podcast” and I’m so glad I did. I love the topics but more importantly it’s the hosts that have me hooked. I’m always drawn to podcasts where the hosts have something to say, good or bad. Steven and Sonny definitely have opinions and their give and take makes for some awesome listening. Put Growin’ Up Rock Podcast on your rotation, you will not be sorry! Zeus from Shout It Out Loudcast

Wasn’t sure what to expect from the very talented Sonny on this first(?) solo podcast venture... 🤔 DEFINITELY was impressed with the musical selections (downloaded a few songs I didn’t have, with mad props going to Extreme’s Politicalamity)... 🤗 And, of course, the usual rock titans that Steven and Sonny usually play didn’t disappoint (“Love you, Lzzy!”)... 😍 So much friggin talent in one episode, it’d be a sin not to have these gifted artists all throughout your playlists (Richie, Michael, JSS, Lzzy, and Tony)...🤟🏾 Very nice job with the editing too, Hollywood! It was, to this listener, seamless...👏🏾 Looking VERY forward to Hollywood’s Wild Hair episode #2!!! 🏆🎟🎧

Found out about this show through “The Hustle” podcast. Great show and very informative and entertaining.

Discovered this podcast with the Dokken top 5 episode. My favorite band. Well done with the selections. Really cool podcast. I love discovering new old tunes and bands I missed along the way in the 80s. Keep on Rokken w Dokken!

A terrific podcast that features fabulous rock music memories from hosts Steven and Sonny. The S&S boys have a terrific chemistry together and I look forward to each unique and well produced episode. In addition to their creative topics, the show also features terrific interviews from a variety of music artists. Keep up the great work guys!

Steven and Hollywood are the best! I’ve enjoyed the last 6 months listening to great classics and learning about newer bands from this podcast. Keep up the outstanding work guys, and keep shuffling, rattling, and rolling!

Steven and Sonny had a great chemistry and they really know their stuff. Listening to Growin' Up Rock really just feels like spending time with friends that share your interest. Fun, fan friendly, informed, and charming. Highly recommend this fine, fine show!

Great hosts, great topics and best of all great passion !!! Keep it going dudes!!!!

So, I just found this show a couple weeks ago and they had me hooked from the first episode when Steve played “What’s Next To The Moon”, my all time favorite AC/DC song. Bingeing the show now and am about 12 episodes in. Love the interviews and stories!! Keep it up guys!

What a fun time the hosts have diving deep into all things hard rock and metal. It's a new show, but I liked it and will continue to listen. I want to support all the folks doing great work keeping this music alive and fresh!!

Growing Up Rock is a very good and entertaining podcast Steven and Hollywood mesh together real well. Their shows are entertaining as well as infrmative in the world of rock. They have great interviews with the players movers and shakers of rock. this is one of my go to podcasts each week. And another great interview with Paul Dean of Loverboy i loved them and still listen as of today. So If you have never listened to them you need to treat your ears and give them a listen and im sure you will like them as i do. Guys keep up the good work and see you in Nashville at RnP2!!!!! ...David Cathey aka @77knightawk

Subscribe to this show now. Great sound quality. Knowledgeable hosts. A fun listen for fans of true rock. - Keep up the great work Sonny and Steven!

Great show with a unique concept. Keep up the excellent work!

I loved meeting you guys at 1st annual Rock n Pod Expo! I am really loving your show and look forward to many more. Best of luck! Cheers! 'The Mooger Fooger'

I started listening to this podcast because my friend "Hollywood" Pooni was going to be a co-host. I love the concept that they have developed. I believe it strikes a perfect balance between current music and nostalgia. We all have a story and this podcast proves that point. Go ahead and subscribe you will not be disappointed.

More hard rock and less heavy metal, Growin' Up Rock taps into feel-good rock n roll nostalgia by talking about the music we grew up with and the concert experiences and memories it's tied to. Love the stories these guys tell and looking forward to more interviews with cool bands.
