“KEXP’s vibe and intent has drifted considerably the last few years. Too much focus on Latin X stuff which is a made up thing. In the Latin language, there is male and female in the beautiful language. Keep our culture…..”

“Song of the Day was such a refreshing podcast! It was just a new, full song everyday, without analysis, for me to listen to and think of on my own, without interpretation. I could hear a whole song by a new artist I’d never heard before, and if I liked it, find it on streaming, etc to hear...”Read full review »

“I’ve recently discovered ‘In Our Headphones’ and give it a big thumbs up. Part of my interest in KEXP podcasts is the commentary you offer as you introduce your audience to music. I have limited knowledge in the music scene, so I am always interested in the side stories about the artist or their...”Read full review »

“Keep your chin up. Folks take a while to come around. The format is on point and the music is delivering. Loved the “honorable mention” from Miss Ashley. Y’all should keep that piece/make it standard across the episodes.
Overall - y’all rip! Don’t sweat the trolls”

“Fumbled! Could have started a new podcast feed for this instead of burning dedicated listeners of the old one. The ratio of talking to music is too high, & an actual radio station should know better. Such a shame!”

“came away with a few new songs to listen to, and made me excited about finding new music on my own. i love hearing people who are passionate about music talk about why they like a song - having the song playing throughout was a nice touch. will definitely keep tuning in!”

“Lacking normal KEXP depth, curation and delivery. I’m sure Janice is nice, but she comes off as very amateur, insincere and fake cheery. The smattering of info on the artists and the tiny sound clips don’t do it for me. I’m all for change and updating, but these are like watching a trailer, not...”Read full review »

“New pod is ok. Not nearly as good as Song of the Day, but I have gotten some good stuff from it already. I just have to go and listen to it myself. I do find myself skipping through the convo, though. And you have to stop using the word “journey””

I absolutely love hearing from people like the hosts. Janice, whose music writing credits also go deep after decades at KEXP, brings...”Read full review »

“I loved loved loved song of the day and was very hopeful for what this new format would bring. I think I’m unsubscribing from this podcast. What’s the point of talking about music if you’re not even going to play it?”

“I have loved KEXP Song of the Day since inception. The new format is miserable. When you can only hear the small snippet of a song repeating the title, and one of the DJ's voices is absolutely unbearable (sorry), I unsubscribed immediately. I came back today and it is still impossible. I did...”Read full review »

“Took a great way to discover music and made it no different than every other NPR music podcast. Twee and annoying. If you can’t play the full songs anymore, I’d rather you just play the snippets and call it a day, instead of this boring wrapping you’ve created.”

“I've subscribed to Song of the Day by KEXP since 2006-07. It was a daily dose of fun, interesting music by unknown, off-the-path bands that were up-and-coming. Even when the music was not that great you could bet that by next week a different DJ would send something you would enjoy. I've...”Read full review »

“I was sad when KEXP got rid of the weekly new music playlist, but was still glad that I at least got a new song each day in its entirety. Now even that is gone. I want to listen to music. Uninterrupted music. I don’t care how the DJ came to like the song or how it affects them. I don’t need to...”Read full review »

“Some reviews have it summed up the exact way I feel. They made this about the DJs and not the music. Snippets instead of full tracks. One of the hosts sounds disingenuous and fake, almost like “influencer speak”. After years of being a daily listener I am unsubscribing.”

“I originally subscribed because I liked getting to hear new music, and just music. Now they’ve completely gotten rid of that, in favor of 99% people monologuing with the occasional 5 second clip. If you’ve listened to any other ‘music’ podcast, you know what I mean. Music-less, boring, I’m out.”

“Not really digging the new format. I really hate just hearing snippets of the songs instead of a full song every day. That was kind of the point of listening to this. I can just listen to the many NPR podcasts that I already do for this kind of thing and they will play full songs.”

“Please go back to a song a day. The beauty of the podcast was that it was short and did what it said on the tin. Over the years it introduced me to so many artists that I would otherwise have not known. Why not run both podcasts for those wanting to listen to a discussion.”
