I listen to most podcasts at 1.5 but this one at normal speed. Which is high praise, in my opinion. The hosts have great taste (especially Helgeson) and the format manages to be relaxing and informative at the same time.

The discussions deliver great insight into the music and artists behind these great albums. This podcast ignited a new appreciation for the stories music tells. Its impact on the hosts and varied guests is immediately relatable without being pretentious. Fading in and out of the songs is usually...Read full review »

Just started listening to this. So good! Brings me back to some great albums that I haven’t listened to in years and being introduced to some great new music. The hosts and guests have great insights and love the format! I am a huge music fan but not a musician so I love how they dissect the...Read full review »

This is the podcast for all music lovers! The format is really simple: Matt Helgeson brings on a guest to discuss two albums of their choosing in great detail. I appreciate the wide array of musical styles that they showcase from different genres and time periods. Honestly, the variety is what...Read full review »

I enjoying the format of this podcast. Keeping the focus on two albums does a great job at bringing out interesting and detailed discussions. The selections feel so very random, but overall a good mix of music that the hosts and guests are passionate about. The Van Halen episode is amazing.

While I take umbrage to Matt calling Misery a "third-tier Soul Asylum song," I won't hold that against him too much. Great discussions, insight, and often quite funny. I look forward to seeing this go forward, and shoutout to Jason!Read full review »

Only now catching up to MinnTrax, and I am loving it. Sticking to episodes where I know at least one of the records well, at least to start, and what a joy. Matt knows a hell of a lot (can’t believe how much i learned new about It Takes A Nation of Millions) about his picks and comes at his...Read full review »

I’m a fan of music and a fan of Matt Helegeson, so it’s the best of both worlds.

Simply some of the best music discussion out there from very experienced and confident guests that cut their teeth originally talking about video games and the industry. I get excited every week when there’s a new episode and hope that the show gets the recognition it deserves!

Love the podcast, has led me to listen to things I never would have heard otherwise! One piece of feedback: play the music more often and for longer chunks! I love what you guys have to say but it’s nice to also hear the music and put it in context, especially when I have never heard the song or...Read full review »

Matt Helgeson has the perfect podcast voice and paces conversation well. Producer Jason does a great job, and he offers observations that help guide the conversation. I’m not a big music person, but it is perfect for helping me understand music more intimately

I used to listen to the GI Show when Matt Helgeson was the host and really liked the music he sampled. It’s cool to see the transition into a full music podcast. It’s crazy you know Griselda
