  • Different kind of jazz podcast

    These guys aren’t academics or even experts, they’re just what they say they are, fans. That makes them really relatable. They don’t know everything and they admit it. They learn at the same pace as the listener. It works because they’re friendly and funny and they share their love of the music.

    I was surprised about how underwhelmed they hosts were with Jive at Five. They seemed to want to put it in a box, like it had to fit their preconception of what a Basie tune should sound like. I can’t ... more

  • Entertaining and educational

    Love listening to the hosts banter and learning more about the jazz world my dad loves so much. The jokes make me laugh out loud and always catch me off guard. I recommend this podcast to all my friends who are interested in jazz, music, and podcasts!

  • Great Podcast!

    This is the perfect podcast to listen to while cooking your Sunday dinner. Or while winding down in the evening. It’s so accessible. The pace is a perfect balance of song clips and banter. The hosts have obvious chemistry and strong knowledge of the subject. I discovered it a few weeks ago and have been binging it ever since. I didn’t even know I liked jazz!

  • A fun way to learn about jazz

    What a great concept----exploring different versions of one jazz standard. I like the fact that the two hosts don't pretend to be 'experts'----and they give fascinating information not just about the 'standard' they play, but the artists who are interpreting it. I do yearn, however, for complete versions of at least some of those recordings.
