The Modern Art Notes Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Engaging, necessary, long form conversations between studied host and his diverse list of intriguing guests, delivered in a relaxed but focused interview that brings one to understand intention and deeper meaning. Thank you.

I really enjoy the content, but the sounds quality makes this an unpleasant listen. In the episode I have on now, the person being interviewed has severe vocal fry (which could possibly be an easy fix) but their audio is such poor quality they keep cutting out. How can you publish a podcast with this level of audio? Pretty disappointing.

But for all of the outstanding artists featured on this podcast, the host Tyler Green does not seem to do them justice as an interviewer. Sure he often does some very good research in preparing for the interviews, but he oftentimes sounds apathetic and even bored during these. Sometimes (and I’m remembering the episode with Roni Horn), it’ll become clear that he’s not interpreting the work correctly, the artist will even correct him, but he will fail to be sensitive, he keeps barreling through with inane questions.

The content of the show is great. I just wish the audio was better. The host is either a low talker and/or has a mediocre sound system/mic. Often, I can hear the guests clearly but not him.
