Summer Album/Winter Album
5.0/5
Critic Rating
On this podcast we believe that all albums are either summer albums or winter albums. But what defines them? The lyrics, the music, your personal relationship with the record? Summer Album/Winter Album is a musical debate podcast with Jody Avirgan (538, 30 for 30, Radiotopia) and Craig Finn (The Hold Steady). Each episode, Jody and Craig offer their opening arguments, and then with the help of a guest, explore one of the greatest records of all time. Then: a verdict from the artist. New episodes twice a month.

"I love a show with a mission and a winner, and also one that has a philosophy that can be applied to awkward silences and at parties or places in need of a good ice breaker. And this one simple question, winter or summer, is a spring board into some really nuanced conversations about music."
