The Yacht or Nyacht Podcast

This podcast does one thing and one thing only: It determines whether songs are "yacht rock" or "nyacht rock." "Hollywood" Steve Huey, David Lyons, JD Ryznar, and Hunter Stair, the team that coined the genre "yacht rock" with their legendary webseries, rate curated and listener-suggested tracks on the highly-accurate Yachtski Scale to build out the playlist of certified yacht rock songs. Their analysis employs a precise scientific method that involves a deep well of musical knowledge, impeccably trained ears, sophomoric banter, and, most impressively, uses a spreadsheet algorithm to add scores & divide them by four. This may sound intimidating but fear not! The hosts let you in on their decades-long friendship and make you feel like part of the team. Can you guess how they'll rate each song? The more you listen, the better you'll get.
The Best Yacht Rock Podcast!

If you love Yacht Rock, hearing David be wrong constantly, or J.D’s multiple pronunciations of the word “eccentricity “, then this is the place for you! P.S. Hunter and Hollywood Steve RULE!
Wish I could hear what they’re saying

It’s next to impossible to hear all of what they’re talking about with the background music being 1. The same volume as their voices and 2. Non-stop throughout the entire episode. The parts I was able to hear were great but I had to stop listening because the background music was so obtrusive.
This podcast is “Top Nyachtch”!

For anyone wondering what Yacht Rock truly is, this is the only place to be. Forget any fly-by-night podcasts or self-anointed pundits aiming to present their versions and interpretations of the genre. Our hosts Steve, JD, Dave, and Hunter defined it all, and along with the spirit of Gene Yachtski, continue to guide us as we expand our Yacht Rock catalogs, learn about the incredible personnel behind the music, and honor the memory of Koko Goldstein.
