About the Show

The Audience Won't Like It is a pop-culture podcast hosted by Rob and Leslie — a married couple who talk about music, film, TV, books, games, and comedy, and end every episode with an acoustic cover of a song.

The concept is simple: imagine you're waiting in line for a concert. The headliner doesn't go on for a while, so you're just talking — about the last thing you watched, something you read, a song you can't stop thinking about. That's the show. The "concert you're waiting for" is always a main topic or featured artist, and the small talk fills the rest.

It's also, honestly, a work date. Rob has a restless creative streak and a lot running through his head at any given time; the show is an outlet for that, and an excuse to keep getting better — at music, at audio and video production, at actually finishing things. Leslie is there to keep it honest and occasionally be completely right when Rob is completely wrong.
