Safe In Sound
Tune in to hear how music can be both a mirror and a medicine — helping us feel less alone, rediscover what moves us, and learn to use sound as a coping skill.Welcome to a space where music and mental health meet. Safe in Sound is a podcast with host Jeremy Houtsma, a licensed mental health counselor, that dives deep into the emotional stories behind the songs that shaped a generation — exploring how artists, therapists, and record label owners navigate mental health in the music industry.
Each episode blends raw conversation and reflection, connecting the nostalgia of 2000s emo music with real, modern-day mental health experiences. Whether you’re a longtime fan of bands like Minus the Bear, Further Seems Forever, or Taking Back Sunday, or simply someone who finds healing through music, you’ll find honesty, connection, and hope here.
Tune in to hear how music can be both a mirror and a medicine — helping us feel less alone, rediscover what moves us, and learn to use sound as a coping skill.

Jason Gleason: Further Seems Forever, ActionReaction, Old Wives
Jason Gleason is perhaps one of my favorite lead vocalists for any band in the scene. Having seen him twice when he was in Further Seems Forever, his stage presence and crowd participation were unmatched. Jason and I talk about How to Start a Fire's 20-year anniversary, his reconciliation with the band, and our mutual love for all things New Jersey.
