Love this show! Vish has the best in-depth artist conversations. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be and independent artist, just listen to a few episodes of this show. Great conversations that are interesting whether you know the band or not.. Vish has great taste and only...Read full review »

There is nothing as honest and unique as Kreative Kontrol. Vish’s interviews are always genuine which can lead them to be insightful, charming, or awkward. Like two friends chatting over a cup of coffee. The conversational tone usually lends itself to artists being more open about things that...Read full review »

Always great. I like that Vish talks about himself. I even like that it may be sometimes uncomfortable.Turn on anything else to get boring interviews. He obviously loves this or he wouldn't be doing it. Give Vish some of your money. You will want more of these.Read full review »

Vish is one of the best and most thoughtful interviewers of all time! He asks questions and creates dialogue around topics only true fans or people who actually engage with the work would seek out. You can hear the earnestness with which Vish conducts himself and the appreciation of his guests on...Read full review »

This is legitimately the best music and culture interview podcast. It needs to be bigger. There’s a 10 year archive of wonderful and intimate interviews of some of the biggest names in music. With a focus on Canadian music, indie rock, and comedy, what’s not to love? Guests are frank, honest,...Read full review »

As the Mary Timony episode demonstrates, Vish’s wonderful show never disappoints! Keep up the great work!

But they should! Great interviewer and great guests. I don’t know why nobody else has figured out this combo.

I found Vish from a search a few years ago on Ian Mackaye, found the episode with Ian and Steve Albini. I’ve stayed ever since. He’s interviewed many interesting, but what I would call “challenging” artists and made each of them sound easy and natural all while just being himself.

Vish rules! Awesome, down to earth talks with interesting indie music folks. Support him on Patreon too!

I came as soon as I heard Steve Albini and Hot Snakes’ “theme song”. I stayed for the interviews with interesting people that don’t get as much airtime elsewhere.

Vish is all of the above!
phishguts101 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/28/23
Vish and I seem to have very similar taste, that’s why it’s hard for me to write this review. I have listened to dozens of episodes and am still appalled at the hosts poor interviewing skills. Vish if you are reading this you need to get your act together. Artists are not here to interview you!...Read full review »

I agree with some other reviewers - great guests, but the interviews need improvement. They could be so good if Vish would just pull it back a bit. Stop talking about yourself so much. Stop saying every thought that comes in your mind. Stop telling us who your famous friends are. Stop stepping on...Read full review »

Wonderfully interesting podcast. The host has immense knowledge and a great sense of humor.
NicknameNamenick123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/23
While you might be enticed to listen due to the long list of quality guests, be forewarned that Vish (the host) likes to talk about himself. It sounds like he rationalizes the show as “a conversation,” but topics are often brought to a standstill while Vish jams in multiple personal anecdotes...Read full review »
xmt464 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/01/23
Fantastic lineup of guests but some of these conversations, like the one with Ira of Yo La Tengo, are so awkward you can feel the tension over the airwaves. The conversation was mostly a one-sided rant by Vish about various concerns that bothered him. The funniest part was when he brought up...Read full review »

Love it!

Vish, you’re right on time with your guests in a very musical way. Not rushing or dragging but very human. Thanks
RobButterfield via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/11/22
Vish is informative, funny, & kind
jsalituro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/22
Longtime listener. Vish is a great interviewer. I do think it is funny when Canadians rudely comment on american rudeness. 😂
chraviswiggins via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/07/21
Great show, great guests overall wonderful singular conversations. Sincerely. That said, Vish, just in case you read these: for the love of khrist please stop spending the first twenty odd minutes of nearly every interview pummeling people with a conversation about the state of the world that...Read full review »

Vish seems like a great guy and what a wonderful collection of guests. Can’t believe I didn’t know about this until now.
Mrfoodle via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/22/21
Vish Khanna is a really engaging, thoughtful interviewer; his warm and friendly demeanour could disarm the most awkward interviewee. (See Bill Callahan.) So far I’ve most loved the Meg Remy and Matt Sweeney interviews and Khanna’s moving and extensive 2019 special dedicated to the late,...Read full review »

Vish has a way about his interviews he is extremely clear and punctuated. He Has the Guests I like and asks the right questions. Always a treat and I know where to get pizza in Guelph.
Rupplejerk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/10/20
Vish is such a great host and has cool guests and awesome conversations. Artists from any music genre, comedy writers and performers, what else?! Keeps getting better.
vwismoovb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/05/20
Vish is a great host that brings out the best in his guests.
Markus Diepold via Apple Podcasts · Austria · 11/11/20
The great moments of this podcast are wonderful, but there are are just as many medicore episodes. Never bad though, and very listenable. The documentary/special episodes are 10/10 great.
H.Hayden via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/21/20
The interviewer is kinda rough. Comes across as pretty condescending to his guests.
C R Nelson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/31/20
Vish does a great job making the subjects feel comfortable and willing to share. I have been listening to him for almost 10 years and I’m hopi g for many more.
erinandtrev via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/16/19
Vish Khanna manages to get unique, in-depth interviews in a layed back comfortable atmosphere. His enthusiasm for the people he interviews is apparent and makes for informed and interesting conversation. Cant wait to hear more

I love this podcast. I need this podcast. Thanks, Vish!

Love this podcast! My favorites are episodes on Fugazi, the more Fugazi in the world the better!

Great podcast
Nate Rumble via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/20/18
great podcast, wide range of guests, we need more stuff like this.

Vish is a great interviewer and profiles really great artists. I love learning about new musicians (and comedians and actors etc.) from Kreative Kontrol.

Great Podcast. Vish is a solid host and interviewer.
timmy_deben via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/08/17
Vish's projects are smart, innovative and just the perfect amount of crazy. Not only is he a creative genius, but he is a wonderfully kind person to boot. Keep up the legendary work!Read full review »
