Great way to discover new music

I’m a big fan of Joe’s music and love his interviewing style but the best thing about this podcast is that it has opened my mind to new music that I wouldn’t know about. He has turned me on to loads of of artists I had never listened to before

Representative of Joe's intelligent and sincere lyrics!

If you listen to Joe's music then I would assume you listen to the podcast. It's pretty much aligned with his articulate and intelligent songwriting. Really interesting guests so far, and some really in depth and more importantly, sincere chat about music, careers, faith, chance, and in general all of the spontaneity that goes hand in hand with the lifestyle.

If you don't listen to Joe Pug now. Start listening to him!

The Working Songwriter

Five episodes in, this is a fantastic series. The guests are interesting, but what really makes it is Joe's research, his great questions and his enthusiasm. Keep 'em coming Joe!
