Earbuddies

But the main content of each episode is also intriguing and entertaining. Mat and Tim are relatable but with a depth of understanding and passion about music that shows through.

Spending half their episodes shilling for toxic waste-food McDonald’s on their show like it’s casual conversation, this is the worst of the worst. Their Jacob Collier episode was garbage. They say Jacob can’t write good songs and then talk about the good songs he’s written. They talk about over-production and then claim that his less produced tracks are just the influence of his collaborators. Songwriting is not his best asset but he writes good songs. Watch his TinyDesk concert. Good songs, tastefully performed in a small group setting. They talk about how great musicians have pushed the envelope throughout history and then criticize someone who’s pushing the envelope about what’s possible. Just total garbage - condescending drivel.

Snooze fest and the hosts come across as pretentious.

If there are one thousand fans of Earbuddies, I am leading the cavalry. If there are a dozen fans of Earbuddies, I am the tip of the phalanx. If there are two fans of Earbuddies, I will have a dear friend at my side. If there is only one fan of Earbuddies left in this world, then I stand alone. If there are no fans of Earbuddies, then reader, I am six feet under, dead as a dang doornail. Proud to have died for a worthy cause. great banter, non-pretentious knowledge, fantastic editing. Most podcasts can only hope to have episodes as good as Earbuddies’ sponsor breaks. love Mat and Tim, long live the army
