Now that we're all stuck at home, this is a good time to explore some interesting podcasts.

Brian and Roger Eno worked together on Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks, which was released in 1983 as a soundtrack for a movie that became the documentary about the first Apollo moon landing, For All Mankind.  They haven't released a new album together since.
 

Bob Boilen interviews them for NPR's All Songs Considered: Roger And Brian Eno Reveal How They Made Their Tranquil New Album Together 

Both albums are are Ambient Music, which Brian Eno has said "must be as ignorable as it is interesting."  I like to listen to Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks when I am working and it is too quiet.  Ambient music makes for nice background sound that doesn't demand my attention the way most types of music do.
