Two Good Ears Podcast
Two Good Ears with Rich Reardin is a podcast that explores the music world from every angle—introducing new artists, uncovering the people behind the music, and revisiting legendary stories. It’s a space for sharing experiences and perspectives, where conversations flow freely between musicians, producers, engineers, and passionate fans. The show grew out of In Search of a Song, a long-running public radio series created in 2005 with guitarist Jason Wilber (John Prine), which produced over 700 episodes for PRX (Public Radio Exchange).
Now, Two Good Ears (TGE) carries that spirit forward, expanding into fresh interviews, pro-audio insights, music history, and lively discussions with guest hosts and friends who have lived and breathed the art of making music.

TGE Episode 322 – Marty Cooper
Host Rich Reardin talks with California singer-songwriter Marty Cooper — a true hidden gem in the American music landscape. Marty’s a storyteller at heart, someone who’s been quietly shaping the soundtrack of our lives for decades. You might not know his name off the top of your head, but you’ve almost definitely heard his songs — covered by everyone from Stevie Wonder to Burl Ives to The Kingston Trio. He came up during the folk revival, worked alongside legends like The Wrecking Crew, and somehow stayed just under the radar all these years. His music paints a picture of an America that feels both familiar and lost — part nostalgia, part wake-up call. I’m excited to dig into his journey, his songs, and the stories behind them.
