Excellent podcast

Well done podcast, best guitar pod cast yet. In depth, well done, and extremely well presented.

Enjoyable, informative, accessible

The host walks the line between introducing a topic or style of music to non-musicians or people unfamiliar with a certain style, yet makes it engaging for experienced guitarists and aficionados of the artist. Really well done. His style is very easy to listen to. Excellent. Highly recommended.

One of the best podcasts ever

Even before considering the subject matter, I would insist that this is one of the finest podcasts available. Matthew Cochran is a sound artist who presents a lively, snappy and eminently smart 'cast that just happens to be about great guitarists. Cochran himself is the Segovia of the podcast world. If you're a fan of music or skillful storytelling or terrifically constructed broadcasts (or all three of those put together), do yourself a favor: check out G2E. Bravo, Matthew!
