Two Good Ears Podcast
Two Good Ears is what happens when one lifelong audiofile, musician, producer, audio engineer, and storyteller sits down with the people who make music worth listening to. Host Rich Reardin invites artists, producers, engineers, and fellow sound‑obsessives to talk shop, swap stories, and lend an ear on how music really gets made.
The show grew out of 'In Search of a Song' which morphed into 'Beyond a Song', a long‑running radio series Rich co-hosted and produced from 2005 with guitarist Jason Wilber (John Prine). Over 700 episodes aired on PRX, capturing candid moments with icons, innovators, and the unsung heroes of the music, in the recording studio and on stage performance.
Today, in podcast form, Two Good Ears carries that spirit forward. It blends fresh interviews, pro‑audio insight, music history, and the kind of relaxed, real conversations that only happen when musicians talk to musicians. Whether it’s a veteran producer, a touring songwriter, or a new artist finding their voice, every guest brings a story worth hearing — and Rich brings the curiosity, humor, and experience to draw it out.
If you love music, the craft behind it, and the people who make it matter, you’re in the right place.

TGE Episode #355 - Tibbs and Obermiller
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Join host Rich Reardin as he talks with the husband and wife singer-songwriter duo of Tibbs and Obermiller. Hillary and Steve Obermiller are a real couple-to-couple kind of project—two people writing from the inside out, with tight vocal and guitar harmonies that hit you right in the chest, and songs that don’t shy away from the messy parts of being human. They’ve got that folksy, lived-in wisdom, and somehow they make it feel both personal and completely relatable.
They’ve spent the last several years fully committing to songwriting and performing, taking their story from local stages in Fort Worth to listening rooms, house concerts, and festivals around the country. And their latest record, Little Kid Heart, is their third album—more polished than ever, but still honest in the way that only comes from writing, workshopping, and re-writing until the songs feel like they finally found the truth.
