		<link>http://www.thedividingline.com/podcasts/progopolis/</link>
		<description>Progopolis is a progressive rock podcast that offers a zany, somewhat schizophrenic listening experience. Hosted by Vince Font and his irresistible sidekick/ball and chain Daisy Jane, the “Dynamic Duo From Witness Relocation Central” have been likened by listeners to a contemporary Burns and Allen, with better musical taste. Show playlists have been known to veer from the classic prog vein into what can best be described as “progressive non-prog” including the far reaching musical genres of post rock, ambient, electronica, IDM and experimental. A new staple of the bi-weekly prog podcast, “The Gravy Train” is an hour-long feature celebrating the music of Pink Floyd and showcasing the various side projects of its members Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Syd Barrett, Richard Wright and Nick Mason. In addition to playing progressive rock favorites like Marillion, iQ, Genesis and Porcupine Tree, show hosts Vince and Daisy are always on the lookout for great undiscovered artists. They take prideful responsibility for having given widespread exposure to independent acts like Donny Who Loved Bowling, American Hollow, Variant, Simeon Harris and Matt Stevens. Submissions by independent artists are always welcome. Progopolis (which is sometimes spelled Prog'opolis) airs live every other Saturday from 7-10pm Pacific on the Dividing Line Broadcast Network, a progressive rock internet radio station headquartered in Vancouver, Canada. Podcasts of past shows are available for a limited time following each live broadcast, with a library that offers a frequently changing archive of four shows at a time.

								<title>Progopolis #181: The 20 Best Albums of 2011</title>
								<itunes:subtitle>Vince and Daisy count down the top 20 albums of 2011.</itunes:subtitle>
								<itunes:summary><![CDATA[ January 28, 2012The Top 20 Albums of 2011Would you believe it? 2011 was another great year for music, making it even harder for us to narrow down our list of choices for the 20 best albums. Being natural born &quot;list makers&quot; didn't make it any easier, apparently. Although we'd known for quite some time that &quot;Peak of Eternal Light&quot; by Moonbound was probably going to be our number one choice, some last-minute discoveries and fabulous late December releases forced us to make some painful decisions -- like pushing Van Der Graaf Generator, Trey Gunn, Opeth, and John Wetton out of contention. We're kidding about the Wetton. But not about the rest. We hope you'll agree with the majority of our choices, although we know there's not a snowball's chance in hell that anyone will agree with them all. Thanks to all of the wonderful artists who helped make 2011 an unforgettable year.#20: Tony Levin, David Torn, Alan White - Levin Torn White#19: Tom Waits - Bad As Me#18: The Fierce and The Dead - If it Carries On Like This We are Moving to Morecambe#17: Steve Hackett - Beyond the Shrouded Horizon#16: Hostsonaten - Summereve#15: Matt Stevens - Relic#14: Hess &amp; Franzen - Closed Locked Sealed#13: Le Orme - La Via Della Seta#12: Stick Men - Absalom#11: Twilight Singers - Dynamite Steps#10: Sanhedrin - Ever After#9: Zombi - Escape Velocity#8: Wobbler - Rites at Dawn#7: Steven Wilson - Grace for Drowning#6: The End of the Ocean - Pacific/Atlantic#5: Markus Reuter with Tim Motzer - Star's End#4: Michael Bernier - Leviathan#3: GRICE - Propeller#2: Christopher Petkus - A Pale Young Woman Appears in the Window#1: Moonbound - Peak of Eternal Light  ]]></itunes:summary>

								<itunes:summary><![CDATA[ December 17, 2011The 50 Most Underappreciated Guitarists of All Time, Part 3Spurred by the criminal negligence displayed in Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time list, we decided to take matters into our own hands and make things right.

								<itunes:summary><![CDATA[ December 3, 2011The 50 Most Underappreciated Guitarists, Part 1In response to Rolling Stone's recent 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time list, which criminally ignored some of the most important guitarists in recent memory and added insult to injury by listing many that don't even deserve mention, we decided to come up with our very own. This episode of Progopolis represents part 1 of a 3-part series counting down the individuals who we consider to be the 50 most underappreciated, underrated, and generally overlooked guitarists in rock and prog history. Some of our choices may cause you to scratch your chin, others to pump your fists in agreement. This episode of Progopolis also features the world premiere of a track from the forthcoming album by GRICE, as well as a brand new track from Kate Bush's 50 Words For Snow.   #50 – Roine Stolt  #49 – Paul Bremner  #48 – Alan Sparhawk  #47 – Ed Wynne  #46 – Bernie Leadon  #45 – Don Felder  #44 – Ian Chrichton  #43 – John Wesley  #42 – Gary Clark  #41 – Suzanne Vega  #40 – Doug Ott  #39 – Piotr Grudzinski  #38 – John Mitchell  #37 – George Thorogood  #36 – Justin Hayward  #35 – Michael Hedges  #34 – Mike Oldfield  #33 – David Torn  #32 – Neal Schon  #31 – Phil Manzanera ]]></itunes:summary>
