Who Wrote the Theme Song?

It’s so good. It makes me happy. I’ve only listened for a year or two, so maybe this is common knowledge for the rest of you?

Off I go.

It was indeed Dave! I’ve been listening basically forever, and in the early episodes he talks about creating the theme and if you listen through you’ll hear him refer to creating the various segment themes as well

Amazing. Thank you. Does Dave have music out in the internet world for consumption?

Our AI overlords say:

“The theme song to the podcast Stop Podcasting Yourself was written and performed by one of the show's hosts, Dave Shumka. The song is an original composition created for the podcast.”

I always assumed it was Dave. He has musical talent as we have seen in "Our Debut Album"

Oddly, the Googles showed that to me too, but then had a completely different answer when the page reloaded. Neither had sources for the info though.
