I am torn.
I have been listening to this podcast for many years. The interviews (generally) go deep in the weeds and provide great insights about artists I love and admire. However, like most things in America The Rolling Stones Music Now ignores the contributions of black women in music. In the last episode (which how many episodes are we gonna get about Taylor and I say this as a Taylor fan) you ignored the myriad of black women carrying a guitar to protect themselves from the dominant gaze. Women like Corraine Bailey Rae, Lauren Hill, Indie Arie and so many others. Taylor is undeniably an important artist but why not shine a light on other women who are doing the hard work but getting sidelined. I do love this podcast and appreciate Brian and Brittany’s knowledge. However, I just cannot continue to support work that routinely ignores the contributions of black people and more specifically black women.

I love Rolling Stone Music Now podcast, but this a rare dud. Boring questions, and Lenny Kravitz is way too mellow.

Great to hear the voices of some of my favorite music artists, and the voices of some of my favorite music journalists. Five stars.

I just listened to the Pete Townsend interview and after hearing ten or fifteen of these things I could go on and on, but suffice to say there’s no better rock music broadcast going. If you know a better one please let me know, but this one is fantastic
