The First Ever Podcast

357

Join Jeremy Bolm, vocalist of Touché Amoré and founder of the record label Secret Voice, for his latest project, The First Ever Podcast. This is an honest look at the humble beginnings of all kinds of different artists - from actors and musicians to poets and photographers. Through conversation, Jeremy explores how their first experiences with their art form lead them to where they are today. In today’s world of instant gratification, it’s important to be reminded that not everything happens fast and easy. To succeed as an artist, it often takes a lot of steps and wrong turns along the path. And uncovering the nuances of those creative journeys is what this show is all about.

Always a fun listen.

Great guest. Great host.

Not a review, more praise

Jeremy is an encyclopedia of music and connections, and he uses that knowledge to create great dialogue with the musicians that have inspired him. Even when I don’t know who the guest is, I listen, learn and gain something. The radio hour is also a great way to find curated new music.

Awesome

Wonderful long form interviews, great questions, and very diverse guests in a myriad of creative mediums. Well done, Jeremy!

Rarely this stoked

Almost as excited about stumbling upon this podcast as I was to stumble upon Touché Amore. Great insights, tons of positivity, and interesting points of view on the history, present, and future of the scene.

Awesome Show

Always great chats with Jeremy and members of the music, film, and arts communities about their first experiences doing what they love. Great insight and guests, always feels like a fun hang instead of an interview format

Wonderful

This podcast helps take the “I’ll be sure to check that band out” out of my hands and I’ve gotten deep into a few different bands because of this show. Cheers!

One Of The Best Music Interview Podcasts Recently

Have heard about this pod for a while and finally took the dive in, and chuffed that I did, I am hoping for Norman Brannon to eventually be a guest! I think Jeremy would do an excellent job.

Seriously check this one out

Mad props to Jeremy for this show. If you can get through the intro theme, you’re in for a treat. Of course the show is filtered through a a musical lens, but I seriously believe that anyone, even if you don’t know a single guest he’s had on, can get a significant amount of value out of this show. The episode with Laura Jane Grace is one of my all time favorites. Would love for Jeremy to get like Phoebe Bridgers, Conor Oberst, or Christian Holden (The Hotelier) on the pod.

Rickie Mazzotta Episode

Came to hear Rickie Mazzotta with a profound love for mewithoutYou. With no previous knowledge of punk and hardcore, I’m grateful for the education. Added some new names to my streaming library: Sunny Day Real Estate and Touché Amoré. Every time I’m at a mwY show, I love watching Rickie. Not only does he play like no one else, but he looks like he’s having the time of his life. Thrilled to hear his journey.

Great show!

Jeremy’s conversations with his guests are always very interesting. I love the radio hour episodes too! There’s always some song in there that I’ve never heard before that leads me down an exciting rabbit hole.

Excellent interviews that feel more like conversations

Always excited for a new episode. Feels like I'm listening in on a conversation between friends.

Best ever podcast!

Great conversations / radio hours are great!
atwarwithin

You had me at the theme songs.

This podcast is rad. I especially like the Radio Hour series, and of course the songs that begin each episode— for both the main show, and the radio hour shows. ⚡️😻🤘🏽

Fun Listen

Fun and informative interview from one of my favorite artists (Elijah Blue). It’s good to hear Deadsy is hard at work on more music.
KyleAcenowr

Must Listen

Jeremy does a great job of engaging each guest with seemingly effortless flow. This show is great for learning about the history and creative approach of the artists involved. An obvious bonus goes toward the quality of the people that are brought onto the show. Lastly, the overall positive tone of the show is refreshing to hear from such talented people. Keep it up.
Giovannimarco

All love

This is an amazing podcast so lovely to listen to and hear Jeremy talk to all kinds of cool people. He has made a lot of music I truly connect with and I will always love him and the band for that. Keep up the great work🖤
AngryJonny

Jeremy somehow wins again

I rolled my eyes when I saw this show come around because I definitely think we don’t need another frontman interviewing hardcore/emo/indie people podcast, but Jeremy somehow wins again. The way Jeremy’s guests relate to him is my favorite part of the show and he gets a pretty one of a kind interview from guests I’ve heard on 7 other podcasts. I’m honestly impressed.

Fire show

Love this podcast, Jeremy is a great interviewer, and puts time and thought into this beyond just two people having a conversation. Look forward to each week.

Two thumbs up and five stars

Jeremy, you remain an authentic and wonderful presence within the music scene. This podcast is one of my favorites. Thanks for interesting guests, conversations and now music hour! Cheers brother.
lostingratitude

This is one of the best podcasts I’ve ever listened to.

This has become one of my favorite podcasts ever. I’ve never realized until this conversation between Jeremy and Sam from Architects how much someone’s voice cracking during a vocal melody has resonated with me. I can think of several with Chino from Deftones that mean a lot to me. Seriously, go listen to this amazing podcast. There are so many great guests and Jeremy is such a fantastic interviewer.

Favorite Podcast

This is an incredible podcast for any music lover. The knowledge and insight Jeremy brings to each episode is unmatched. Obviously he is the lead singer of a post hardcore band but his appreciation for all types of music really shows. This podcast knows and loves music.
jorgeisadisease

Very inspiring

Jeremy has always been a musician I've looked up to. Hearing his podcast talking to other musicians and artists about craft brings me so much joy. It's always super informative and lighthearted. Looking forward to more!
iammattman

Honest and insightful

Jeremy does a great job getting interesting topics out and relating to his guests. The episode with Sam Carter was excellent. Keep it up!

Incredible Podcast

I am a huge Fan of jeremys band, Touché Amore and love this podcast that explores an artist’s first experiences with their craft. It’s unbelievably insightful to find out more about other artists I’m a fan of in addition to learning about someone new and diving into their careers as well. Still waiting on someone to interview Jeremy though...

Best in the scene

Jeremy has absolutely knocked it out of the park for 30+ episodes now. The guest have been fantastic and the conversations are just flat out fun and easy to digest. Really hoping Jeremy can expand here and move into the video-podcast space. Maybe record talks would be a cool topic since the guy has such a gnarly record collection. Thanks again for always putting out the most honest content, Jeremy.
FedeAndiMaco

Awesome conversations!

I started listening to podcasts because of this one. So this was my first ever podcast. The ones I’ve enjoyed the most were those with people Jeremy is friends with. And it’s so strange to me how I even enjoy the conversations with artists I don’t know who they are. Awesome podcast, keep going Jeremy!
Kcbrod

Inspiring across the board

Jeremy’s podcast has officially bumped my other podcasts (even the true crime, who would have thought!) for the #1 spot. It’s such a treat every week. No matter what you’re into, this podcast brings so many unique and endearing perspectives to different types of art.

First ever review...

It’s a fun listen every time...
joerofmusic

You know it’s good when:

You pause the show to check out a band he’s interviewing or scour the web for all things related to the artist he’s talking with. 10/10 solid pod
rustx78

Amazing

Amazing podcast thank you Jeremy
byrdparenzin

Leaves You Wanting More

The best part is that Jeremy admits he is not an expert on his guest’s art form. This creates a dialogue that allows us listeners to learn from and about the guests in an elementary way that is so fun and approachable (not to mention inspiring). I get so wrapped up in it all that I’m left wanting more. Well done.
AndrewRubin1995

Love it

Some amazing conversations and stories. Check out the podcast and go listen to Lament! Keep it up man!
