Bub & Pop

As a music fan, I find myself daydreaming what it would be like if I could sit down and talk to the musicians I respect and just pick their brain about how they go about their craft. Watching this podcast gets you as close to doing that as you can without actually having the opportunity to meet them yourself. Matt has a unique style and way about him that he seems to get every guest comfortable opening up about what makes them tick in a very organic way.

Matt Hoffman is consistently bring in interesting guest and conduction thoughtful, well-researched interviews. “Bub & Pop” is always introducing me to new and exciting voices in music and beyond, and the passion Matt has for these conversations shows. This is a podcast for fans of genuine conversation!

Matt is a great interviewer. He clearly does his homework going into the episodes but seems very comfortable going with the flow as the conversation moves along. Really excited to see what else he’s got in store!

I’ll admit I’m a little biased as the editor of this podcast, but as a lifelong musician and devoted fan of live music, I can honestly say Matt brings something rare to this project. His combination of deep musical knowledge, thoughtful research, and genuine curiosity gives each episode real depth. He doesn’t just talk about the artists themselves; he explores the broader creative ecosystem around them: who they’re collaborating with, what other projects they’re connected to, where their influences come from, and how they continue to evolve. Having a front-row seat to this process has been a dream. Even after a lifetime of loving live music, I’m still learning so much about the scene in real time.
