What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Fun, interesting podcast with a revolving door of artists. Because there are no hosts and therefore there’s no voice your getting used to, there’s no guarantee your going to be interested in every episode, but if your listening at work or putting it on without a bias towards the names you’ll find yourself being pleasantly surprised. I’ve found out about a few artists based on how interesting or honest their conversations have been with no prior knowledge of them and that’s always a sign of a good podcast to me. My one fault with this podcast is that I find myself having to skip the intros as I personally can’t stand the people essentially giving away all the main beats of the conversation. The conversation feels far less natural as I’m listening if I know all the main prices of subject matter... otherwise great listen.

J.K. Con · Feb 2020

I love the concept of the podcast & the 5 episodes I’ve listened to were great for the most part. My only complaint is the super long intros. I don’t need the breakdown of topics or the guests bio. Maybe I’m in the minority but I mostly listen to the artist I’m familiar with. Can you please post some sort of time code marker so I can skip the intros? Or keep the intros to 1-2 minutes? They seem to ramble on & on & on & on... thanks!

tb moss · Mar 2019

I love the format of this interview/converastion-style podcast. The Talkhouse features recording artists slightly similar backgrounds (but with very different experiences) talking about songwriting, playing, recording, and anything that comes to mind. In each episode feel like you are hanging out with two massive talents just shooting the breeze, getting to know each other and becoming friends. What a fantastic idea for a show (and there’s companion Film & TV version too!) from author Michael Azerrad who has written several tremendous books on indie rock, including Come As You Are (Nirvana) and See a Little Light (Bob Mould). Yes.

nickykay · Jul 2015

I like Talkhouse's novel format of two solid musicians talking about life. One glimpses so much into past events as they describe things with such immediacy as they both were there. Existing interviews are often boring because many interviewers don't put in the work to appreciate the effort and love these people put in for their chosen vocation. Some do put in the work, which is fine, but this new format brings up the banter between shows the struggles and drive. Whereas there is always an awkward wall between interviewer and musician. I'm very familiar Sunny War's music, but I will checkout old Crass albums on Apple music.
