Description

Two Good Ears is what happens when one lifelong audiofile, musician, producer, audio engineer, and storyteller sits down with the people who make music worth listening to. Host Rich Reardin invites artists, producers, engineers, and fellow sound‑obsessives to talk shop, swap stories, and lend an ear on how music really gets made.

The show grew out of 'In Search of a Song' which morphed into 'Beyond a Song', a long‑running radio series Rich co-hosted and produced from 2005 with guitarist Jason Wilber (John Prine). Over 700 episodes aired on PRX, capturing candid moments with icons, innovators, and the unsung heroes of the music, in the recording studio and on stage performance.

Today, in podcast form,  Two Good Ears carries that spirit forward. It blends fresh interviews, pro‑audio insight, music history, and the kind of relaxed, real conversations that only happen when musicians talk to musicians. Whether it’s a veteran producer, a touring songwriter, or a new artist finding their voice, every guest brings a story worth hearing — and Rich brings the curiosity, humor, and experience to draw it out.

If you love music, the craft behind it, and the people who make it matter, you’re in the right place.
