Definitely a great listen

The hosts of this show discuss the craft of writing songs that is both basic and inspirational! Good guests offer different ideas and tips on what songwriting can be. I like the extra segments, too, like Nashville Steve, Grant's Rants and Raves, and Don't Do the Dumb Things That Jason Did!

I would not recommend this.

This is set up to help aspiring songwriters improve their skills. It is not helpful.

Love it!

Great job! I really enjoy the variety of guests and analysis of the craft. The critiques are gentle and usually spot on. I am more of a No Rules experimental songwriter and I find the podcast fun and helpful!
