  • Canadian Artists

    I like the music selections but enjoy learning about Canadian artists because this material doesn’t seem to get much AirPlay anywhere else.

    Thank You

  • It doesn’t suck!

    As advertised, this has plenty of Christian music that doesn’t suck. This podcast has introduced me to new artists and given me a deeper appreciation for this I already like. The interviews of the artists produce interesting and often unexpected answers. Love it!

  • Dave has had YEARS of experience with The Antidote as a radio show and while its syndication footprint continues to grow, it's often really convenient to simply download and listen later. This show is worth your subscription and time. While Dave's tastes are broad and probably wider than your own, you can trust that he'll bring you interesting interviews, musical gems, and well thought out thematic episodes as well as introduce you to a lot of great new artists! I've found several new favorites ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 702: The Covers, part 20 – AZSH
Q: I want to ask you about a cover tune that you and DJ Fenix put together. You didn't choose just any song. You went for an epic one. Were you intimidated to record In the Air Tonight?
I was not intimidated. I was excited and careful, having sung the song many times live, and I wanted to translate it into a dance-feel while staying true to the vocal integrity, eventually working with a producer to shape the backing track.
Episode 704: TOM Convention
Q: How did you decide who should be invited as panelists and performers?
He describes reaching out to artists he knows from the Orange County scene, later expanding to those who were available, with many conversations and personal invitations shaping the lineup.
Episode 704: TOM Convention
Q: What made you want to design a convention that looks at music from the past?
Bridges explains that his love for the music and the experiences with legendary artists inspired him to create a space that celebrates and revisits the history, while giving fans a chance to meet and interact with those artists.
Episode 713: Young Oceans (2025)
Q: Was it all solo on your latest album, or did you have others contributing as usual?
No, several collaborators joined in; Rob Richie played most guitars, Mason Drums, Keneen vocals, Karim production, with a core team that supported the project.
Episode 713: Young Oceans (2025)
Q: Your artist name. I mean, oceans are ancient, so how did you come to call it Young Oceans?
There was a paradox in the two words and a desire to avoid using my own name; I wanted a name that felt broader and eternal, which led to 'Young Oceans'.
