Where The Truth About Recording & Mixing ranks today in each Apple Podcasts chart (US, Sep 30, 2026).
A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.
I listen to a lot of audio podcasts, and this is my favorite. Why?
-Johnny is a great interviewer. On point, nice tone, relaxed yet highly informative
-Good choices of guests from various backgrounds (but all very relevant)
-Love the Q&A from listeners
-It *sounds* great. (Weird how many audio production podcasts have zoom-call-like audio!)
Only wish the episodes came more frequently! :)

I’m a nut for discussions on music making! Podcast on songwriting, music production, and engineering techniques dominate my playlist. “The Truth” continues to be one of my favorites! Though there are some [desirable] topics that get revisited, like Spectra Sonics, I prefer Johnny’s less scripted and sometimes non-linear format that makes it feel like you’re sitting in the intern’s chair just soaking up knowledge wherever the convo leads. Nice job, Johnny! Don’t be such a reluctant podcast rockstar!

Johnny Sangster is a well respected engineer and musician with tons of fantastic practical experience. If you’re a home studio maniac like me or a pro in a fancy studio, this is the podcast for you!
