The Listen In Podcast

Episode 183 - 2021 First Quarter Review

In this episode, Sean and Jake discuss the last few months in life in general and in music. Music covered in this episode includes Yasmin Williams, Playboi Carti, Chuck Johnson, Floating Points and Pharaoh Sanders, Home is Where, Arm's Length, Wild Pink, Nick Cave, Cassandra Jenkins, Jazmine Sullivan, and more. Programming Note: Starting with this episode, we've changed the format of the podcast a bit. We've been at this for 5+ years now, and we've learned that as we've gotten older and our lives and interests have changed, the things we enjoy about doing this podcast have changed too. The post-show discussion (which has always centered around life in general, pop-culture, sports, and pretty much anything else that came into their heads) has been moved right into the show itself! Rather than focus strictly on music, the Listen-In Pod is now a mostly-music podcast that branches out into other interests and areas of our lives. We hope you enjoy it!
