Two of Christian rock's leading DJs have teamed up to launch a hard-hitting podcast to discuss all aspects of the Christian music industry. Broken FM DJ Chris Kuhner and Christian Rock 20 host Paul Gibson each week dish about the world of Christian Rock present and past. The show is entering its 24th week as a podcast, already having discussed the pros and cons of Praise and Worship bands, cover songs, record labels, ska, excuses we make for bands, how bands get labeled as "not Christian enough" and much more.

Kuhner and Gibson bring their combined radio and media experience to offer a unique perspective on issues, oddities and trends that surround the Christian music industry. The podcast also features the pair's side project of the week, and the Christian Music Archive radio segment, which gives a short look at bands of Christian music past and present.

The Rock N' A Hard Place Podcast is available for free subscription and download on iTunes; a new episode is released each weekend.

LISTENER COMMENTS:

"Favorite podcast. I have found it hard to listen to podcasts in the past but I absolutely love this one."

"Good stuff. The content is great, but it's also a well executed show. These guys have and insider perspective on Christian rock that I haven't heard before."
