Bob Boilen (Creator and Host of NPR's All Songs Considered and Tiny Desk Concerts)

Welcome to Roadcase, a podcast exploring the live music experience!! Join Roadcase for this inaugural episode of Season 2 with NPR's Bob Boilen. Bob created NPR's All Songs Considered and Tiny Desk Concerts and has been inviting artists and bands to play at his desk at NPR since 2008. We talk about how these intimate and stripped-down shows became a reality, how Bob came from New York to Washington DC long ago, his musical background and how an idea of a simple and quiet show became a reality and a benchmark of performance in the music industry at-large. We even talk about Bob's favorite bagels -- his own!! Come on aboard for this compelling and in-depth look at NPR's Tiny Desk and the humble and kind man that created this global phenomenon. It's a great ride!! For more information: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod Contact: info@roadcasepod.com Theme music: "Eugene" (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
