Time: ~30 min. It's Episode 72! This week I’m talking about the RIAA’s 2025 mid-year report, covering all the ways music is purchased, and how the MTV Video Music Awards had their best ratings in years. And oh dear, Fyre Fest is back in the news, but not the way you think. We also take it to 11- Spinal Tap is back. Of course, I’ve got some fun music history moments, a marketing tip to help indie musicians stay consistent, and 5 indie tracks including my pick of the week featuring fresh new music (and a brand new band!) you won’t want to miss.
