Sound Opinions

I found a great podcast that's a close second to Bob Boilen's All Songs Considered. It's called Sound Opinions and Chicago Public Radio (a la This American Life) puts it out. It's hosted two famous rock critics: Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot. Greg Kot wrote the Wilco/Jay Farrar book I blogged about a while ago.

These guys pick apart all types of music and, like All Songs Considered, I don't think you have to be a total music nerd to like it. Well Maybe.

They did a show on Midlake that was great. They did a Best-Of 07 show. They did a "Turkey Shoot" show at Thanksgiving where they picked out 07's worst albums. Great podcast.
