Talkhouse

Talkhouse is a digital media outlet, online magazine, podcast network and production company created in 2013 by Ian Wheeler and Tim Putnam. On the website, musicians, actors, and filmmakers share their experiences in their respective fields in personal essays, discuss their peers' work in editorials and reviews, and converse with one another via the Talkhouse Podcast. In the early 2020s, Talkhouse began expanding into podcast production beyond the original Talkhouse podcast and becoming a podcast network. In 2025, Talkhouse began film production activities by executive producing Björk's Apple Music Live film Cornucopia which premiered on Apple TV+ before being released in theaters worldwide.

Talkhouse distributes podcasts through the Talkhouse Podcast Network in addition to producing podcasts in-house.

Podcasts distributed through Talkhouse Podcast Network include the original Talkhouse Podcast itself, launched in 2014. It pairs artists, musicians, filmmakers, comedians, and actors in conversations about their work, often but not always focused on music or film. Episodes are unmoderated artist-on-artist conversations that typically run from 30 minutes to an hour. Guests have included Questlove, Abbi Jacobson, Fred Armisen, Alia Shawkat, David Cross, Chelsea Manning, Ian Brennan, A$AP Ferg, Lauren Mayberry, Martin Rev, Lena Dunham, Kamasi Washington, Tim Heidecker, Aidy Bryant, Seth Meyers, RZA, Talib Kweli, Haim, Mac Demarco, Michael Stipe, Japanese Breakfast, Joe Pera, Ben Gibbard, Jeff Tweedy, Matt Berninger, and Jemaine Clement. Episodes are generally released every Thursday on iTunes, Stitcher, and SoundCloud.

Some artists after appearing as guests on the Talkhouse Podcast have gone on to collaborate with one another. For example, Courtney Barnett was featured on The Breeders' record All Nerve, and Kim Deal of The Breeders was featured on Barnett's Tell Me How You Really Feel. For another example, Merrill Garbus of Tune-Yards and Laurie Anderson worked together on Anderson's art installation "Habeas Corpus" at The Park Avenue Armory in 2018.

Josh Modell is the host and producer of the podcast, which also features frequent appearances by Talkhouse Film editor-in-chief Nick Dawson. The podcast was previously hosted by Ella Einhorn and by former Talkhouse Music editor-in-chief Michael Azerrad.

Notable episodes include: Kid Cudi with Paul Reubens, for which the Talkhouse Podcast was honored by the Webby Awards in the category of "Best Individual Episode," Matt Berninger with Conor Oberst, Carrie Brownstein with Questlove, and Lauren Mayberry with Haim.

Another notable Talkhouse Network podcast is Sing for Science, created and hosted by musician Matt Whyte, which features musicians talking about their music and then transitions into conversations related to a guest scientist's field of study.
