I was going to hold this off until I had more to add, but I couldn’t resist mentioning this while I had the link to hand.
Two music-oriented podcasts
The Roadhouse
An hour long show with rare and new blues stuff. I’m not really a big blues person but sometimes you get too much variety with playlists. With this you’re never surprised by death metal and euro pop juxtaposed together.
Coverville
This is the podcast that prompted this post. Not just because it’s a great show devoted to cover songs - which it is, and the guy does requests too - but because there was a Tom Waits special for his birthday. For those people who find Tom’s voice and style a bit abrasive and find it hard to fight through to the songs.
