  • Great episode about storytelling

    I just finished listening to the storytelling episode. You guys have a really interesting niche. I loved when he talked about listening to movie scores to write. That’s such a fun idea.

  • Solid Expertise, Room for Stronger Dialogue

    “Hear us Out” has the potential for meaningful depth, but the interview interview format often turns into extended monologues with limited back-and-forth.

    More dynamic follow-ups and in the moment engagement could elevate it significantly.

  • Fascinating!

    Hear Us Out is worth a listen if you’re curious about sound and hearing beyond clinical basics—especially from the perspective of professionals who know the science but are comfortable exploring cultural and human aspects too. It won’t satisfy someone looking for short, highly curated summaries, but it consistently delivers expert-centered conversations that explore the “why” behind what we hear and how it shapes life.

  • Fascinating!

    If you’re like me, you might take your sense of hearing for granted. It’s something I use all day, every day, but don’t put a lot of thought into. Coming across the HEAR US OUT podcast opened my eyes to the world of audiology and all the nuances of how we hear in the world. Through thoughtful interviews, great stories, and fascinating information, Doctors Michelle and Eric have opened my eyes—or, I guess, ears!—to an entirely new way of listening.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Q: What are you most looking forward to as you step into the role full-time?
She looks forward to exploring dynamic interactions with different scene partners, the creative freedom, and continuing to engage the audience over a longer run.
Claire Kwon (Maybe Happy Ending); How Sound Shapes Us
Q: Tell us what it was like to join the cast.
Claire describes joining a small, tight-knit company, the learning curve of entering mid-way through a run, and the welcoming culture that helped her acclimate.
Jon Lampley; A Conversation on Music, Sound and Life
Q: What advice would you give young musicians about navigating a versatile early career?
Be not discouraged by difficulty, embrace versatility, keep learning multiple skills, and be willing to pivot; this breadth will open opportunities and enrich your main craft.
Jon Lampley; A Conversation on Music, Sound and Life
Q: Can you tell us about entering different projects when you join established bands versus leading your own material?
I learned early to bring my own voice while learning the music and being respectful of the group; over time this balance helped me become a contributing, irreplaceable member who can adapt to various projects while still expressing my identity.
Jason Aron; The Art of Music Direction and The Jonas Brothers
Q: Can you talk about a time when something didn't go as you planned, and how you worked around it?
The Dallas internet outage during the Jonas Brothers tour was the most tense moment; we couldn't rely on the venue's bandwidth, so we had to lock in, reassign internet responsibilities, and continue directing the show as best as possible while the team managed the broadcast from the truck and later adapted when the issue could be resolved.
