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 333 - John Westhues
This episode features a conversation with a longtime friend who spent the early 1970s living in Helsinki during the rise of Finland’s progressive rock movement. Known locally for his WFHB radio show (Bloomington, Indiana) on Finnish and Scandinavian music, he brings firsthand insight into the era that produced bands like Wigwam and other innovators of the Finnish music scene. We talk about his time in Finland, the music that defined it, and the cultural threads that connect Helsinki to Bloomington.
