Switched on Pop - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Truly one of the best, most consistent podcasts. Even when an episode title doesn’t sound very interesting to me, I listen to the episode and invariably learn something fascinating. I always walk away more curious about and energized by the whole world, not just the world of music, and what more can you ask for? Plus, it’s entertaining!

i've listened to this podcast on and off for several years now and it's always a joy to hear the breakdown of contemporary pop music. the hosts have such respect for the genre and help me to hear songs and albums from a fresh perspective.

The recent episode about Beyoncé’s new singles was great! My favorite episodes are ones that break down songs and talk about the lyrics, instrumentation, musicians, lyrics, and melodies. I liked the new singles before the show, but now I have a deeper appreciation and understanding of them, so thank you!

I always love when Reanna comes on! She has great insights and love her dry sense of humor. I love how goofy Charlie and Nate are, and my favorite eps are definitely when it feels like I’m listening in on a hang out sesh, where they’re all just chatting, debating, and cracking jokes about pop songs. Fun pod!

BTW, ever notice how podcasts featuring men and a woman invariably get reviews about how annoying the woman is? I’m sure it means nothing…

I’m listening to the episode about how restaurants are too loud, but it’s a bit ironic that the sound and editing is bad. The Gastropod hosts edit their speech in a way that is very unnatural and doesn’t leave enough space in between sentences. The volume on this episode also fluctuates too much.
