Any way to gain Bardic Knowledge without being a Bard?

Draconic Knowledge feat is out, not a True Dragon.

If substituting class features, the base class is Wizard.

Magic of Incarnum Riklan Rogue racial substitution levels grant a full progression of Bardic Knowledge.

It is obscure, but the primal scholar in Secrets of Xen'Drik gets a Lore like ability. (Xen'Drik Lore).

Unlike normal Lore it is decided not by level, but by CASTER LEVEL + Int. Making it ridiculous. Rest of the class is pretty good too. Only problem is that it is Eberron specific, and relies on Action Points.
