“Biased towards figure painters. John does great interviews, but he generally doesn’t look beyond figure painters.”

“My favourite podcast! I love listening to John's laidback Dublin accent (so familiar -reminds me of so many friends' accents!) and his chuckles, as he interviews (more a meandering philosophical chat!) amazing artists from the wilds of Kerry! Love it!! It's laugh- out-loud listening-...”Read full review »

“Gently Does It is the greatest source for interviews of contemporary painters. John’s conversational approach and listener-generated questions make for spectacularly down to earth conversations on the technique, concept, and business of painting in the 21st century. Whether by design or...”Read full review »

“So many art podcasts I try to listen to because an artist I follow and aspire to live up to just don’t hit the mark. They talk in circles about nothing; I don’t even know where the conversation begins and one what premise or if questions have even been asked. Plus, the artists in all their...”Read full review »

“Pilat - her painting is terrific. She’s entitled to her own opinions and inspirations - however the fact that she finds the misanthrope Ayn Rand a “hero” kinda ends it there for me.”

“John “effortlessly” lays every thought and like the great Master, all feels (improbably) right . The guess, each one more selfless than the next. And the new Uncut gems , confirmed 400 years later how much better is to be first in crudeness than second in fines.”
