This is a great show that I listen to every Saturday. If I happen to miss an episode, I subscribe to the podcast. It is essential to my media diet. I enjoy a shot of Jim DeRogatis with a Greg Kot chaser once a week.
These guys are very fair in their musical analysis and they critique popular music from all genres: rap, metal, dance, r&b, etc. I find them smug and pretentious at times as one would expect a rock critic to be. The good news is that it is never a problem - it is never what they are all about. They call it like they see it and even to the faces of the special live guests which they have on weekly for in-house performances.
In Chicago, it is on 91.5 FM at 11:00 AM right between Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me and This American Life. It is a really great line up.
