  • AI and the Music Industry with Mitch Glazier
    2026/06/05
     Does AI pose an existential threat to artists and humanity? Does it spell certain doom for original creativity? Are there any legal protections or policies going into place to protect the independent creator? In this episode of The David Andrew Wiebe Show, David wrangles RIAA CEO Mitch Glazier into a conversation at Music Pro ’26 about AI technologies and their broader implications for artists and the music industry. In This Episode: What the RIAA has identified as the major issues surrounding AI How AI disclosure is becoming essential Why Mitch feels AI represents a major opportunity for artists Why the AI literate will be positioned to take advantage of more opportunities How the music industry has adapted and thrived through multiple significant shifts Why AI policy is crucial for protecting creatives, especially now What Mitch thinks of David’s MRCT framework Why the fans are in control and how to avoid an authenticity backlash How Mitch describes the artist model for 2026 Why David doesn’t believe in outsourcing his brain to AI How Hypebot suggests creators utilize AI (great quote!) Key Resources: Recording Industry Association of America: advocating for the music ecosystem through policy Kit: email marketing platform for creators David’s Best Tips for Leveraging AI AI can be a blessing or a curse (or both, or even something in between) based on your understanding and context of how it works. And this isn’t something we can get across in a paragraph. What we can offer, however, is a high-level view of how you can effectively leverage AI in your creative work. Here’s David’s framework: Study Prompt Engineering If you want to get better outputs from AI chatbots, you must speak their language. That’s the essence of prompt engineering. You don’t necessarily need to become a professional prompt engineer. Taking a couple of Udemy courses should prove more than enough to get started. Subscribing to newsletters like Superhuman AI for ongoing inspiration. Experiment Broadly Before wholesale adopting and implementing AI in your ecosystem, experiment. Try a variety of things, from researching relevant topics to analyzing a dataset. AI is seductive in its appeal. But you can’t look at its work through rose-tinted glasses, or you will be in danger of believing everything it does is great. Reality check – it isn’t. You’ve got to push its limits and question its outputs. Notice what it does well and notice where it fails. Then, learn how to steer it towards useful generations. This part doesn’t come together overnight. Experiment broadly, and make level-headed observations. Determine Where AI is Most Useful and Effective Also see the previous point. As you experiment, identify where AI can be of productive assistance to you. This will vary from creator to creator, but it’s crucial to determine where it can and cannot provide efficiencies before committing to its outputs. David uses a mix of tools to create social media posts, podcast transcripts, short videos (clips), podcast show notes drafts, and more. But he doesn’t use AI for any of his writing. Create Frameworks Creating repeatable processes makes it possible to generate more consistent and predictable results. Using the same chat for the same tasks is a good start, but crafting a prompt that works every time is the real flex. Document and store the frameworks that boost your efficiency and make your life easier. Establish a Central Repository While AI can go beyond your prompt and search the web for additional information, it still hallucinates and digs up useless and inaccurate reference points. A better strategy is to create a central repository (in Google Drive) for key contextual information (style guides, audience research, frameworks, etc.) and give your AI model access to this information. Keep in mind, though, that you need to keep your repository up-to-date, or chatbots will assume earlier context. Be the Final Reviewer and Decisionmaker There are things AI can provide and those it cannot. This James Schramko video explains it very well: To summarize, AI can provide structure, discipline, consistency, and speed. But you’re the only one who can provide taste, context, authority, experience, and final calls. Whatever you’re generating, use your filter of taste, context, authority, experience and final calls to improve outputs. Be Real Disclose AI use. Let people know when and where you’re utilizing it, especially where it’s likely to become a legal requirement (e.g., creator platforms). AI hate is strong and growing. You have nothing to gain and everything to lose by hiding your use of AI. AI hate is strong and growing. You have nothing to gain and everything to lose by hiding your use of AI.Share on X And if you’re still one of the real ones creating real content, be proud of this fact and let your audience know.

  • Music Prediction Markets with Justin Longo
    2026/05/29
     Have you ever thought about predicting music trends and earning income from them? Perhaps not, because this is still an emerging idea. But it’s a very interesting one, particularly for independent artists looking to diversify their income streams. In this episode of The David Andrew Wiebe Show, David catches up with Justin Longo of MarinNation in Hollywood, CA, while attending the Music Pro ’26 conference. Besides getting an update on Justin’s progress on his still-in-development skill-based music prediction market platform, the two also touch on how AI is changing the music industry landscape and strategies modern artists can adopt to ensure their human advantages are properly leveraged. In This Episode: What Justin noticed about David after meeting him for the first time How MariNation shifted from an investment platform to a skill-based music prediction platform (and what that means) The real story behind Justin’s entrepreneurial and musical journey How Justin suggests supporting yourself while growing your hustle The secret formula David learned from Andrew Dubber David’s framework for human-driven independent music success Justin’s experiments with TikTok and what it has taught him about content volume Why Justin believes people will never buy music again What Steve Vai said about utilizing AI in music How David views current news headlines concerning AI developments The contentious ideas David thinks musicians need to start “shaking hands” with Key Resources: MariNation: Justin’s music prediction platform Kit: email marketing platform for creators David’s MRCT Framework for Human-Driven Independent Success The MRCT Framework lays out the advantages that humans have over AI. Now that AI can produce convincing-sounding pop music, which creates a new skill floor for musicians, musicians must emphasize human connection. This framework, of course, could work with the assistance of AI. But that part is key – with the assistance of. Use AI to enhance working processes and scale viable opportunities, not enhance mistakes and scale insanity. M – Message The core of your artistic identity. What do you stand for? What are you about? What’s your mission? These might not be easy questions to answer, but the sooner you can figure this out, the sooner you can organize your activity around a singular purpose. Your Message should drive your brand, your image, everything you do. It should inform your musical choices, lyrics, stage costumes, merchandise, and fan conversations. A great band without a message might make great music, but that’s not a differentiator or a competitive advantage. Plenty of artists make great music. What will attract people to you is a meaning they can rally behind. R – Relationship A fan base grows stronger through Relationship. People want to feel like they belong. They want to feel like they’re part of a movement. They want to feel good about themselves and to share that with like-minded others. You can offer this to your fans, particularly in the early going. You can learn everyone’s names, send them a text every week or two, maybe even organize a wings night now and then. Read How to Win Friends and Influence People while you’re at it. It will help! C – Community At some point, Relationship will become unscalable. It’s still a good idea to get to know your fans and stay connected to them, to the extent possible, but at some point, you’ll need to transition to building your Community. You can introduce new fans to old fans. Heck, you can make your old fans the leaders of the community. You can teach and instill in them in the values that built the culture. And you can start doing things that will scale for a long time to come – play birthday parties, organize album signings, do live streams. T – Taste-making You can introduce your fans to things you enjoy. They are bound to trust your recommendations, and assuming you share quality things, they will keep returning to you for more. This positions you as the go-to person for entertainment and fun. People will want to talk to you, just because you know about the coolest lounges, restaurants, bookstores, and so on. This will also lead to more gigs, because people will want to book you for their personal events. AI can only make suggestions. You can be a tastemaker! You’re Invited!

  • 100 – Unclogging Your Creative Flow: Why Tying Up Loose Ends Unlocks Opportunities
    2025/08/16
    Have you ever felt like you're spinning your wheels creatively, unable to move forward despite having talent and ideas? Do you find yourself surrounded by half-finished projects, unopened mail, and organizational chaos that somehow feels manageable but might actually be holding you back? Perhaps you've dismissed the importance of "getting organized" as something that doesn't really affect your creative output—after all, you know exactly where that important document is in the third pile from the left, halfway down. In this practical and eye-opening episode of Creativity, Excitement, and Emotion, David explores the often-overlooked connection between tying up loose ends and creative breakthroughs. Drawing from his current experience of managing a move, car repairs, client projects, and the concept of "vibrational escrow," he reveals how uncompleted tasks and disorganization can literally block opportunities from flowing into your life. Whether you're struggling with creative blocks, feeling overwhelmed by commitments, or simply wondering why success feels elusive despite your efforts, this episode provides both the framework and motivation needed to clear the energetic and practical clutter that may be standing between you and your next breakthrough.

Highlights: 00:17 – Tying up loose ends 01:23 – Why organization matters 03:40 – David’s current loose end inventory 10:00 – What David has learned and discovered on this journey 19:43 – Closing thoughts Summary: In this practical and revealing episode, David delves into the often-overlooked connection between organization and creative success. Through his personal experience of managing multiple loose ends—from car repairs to moving to client projects—he demonstrates how incomplete tasks and disorganization can actually block opportunities from manifesting in your creative career. Key Themes & Takeaways The concept of "vibrational escrow" and how incomplete tasks block incoming opportunities Why top performers tend to be highly organized and how this affects creative output The mental clarity that comes from reducing commitments and completing projects How delegating to experts frees up creative energy for higher-value activities The surprising connection between physical organization and new opportunity flow The Vibrational Escrow Principle David introduces a compelling concept about how incomplete tasks affect our ability to receive new opportunities: The idea that certain things are "waiting for you" but require completion of current tasks to arrive How unfinished projects occupy mental space and block creative flow Why defining when something is "done" is crucial for moving forward The importance of unclogging your system to allow new opportunities to flow "When you don't flow things out, it does affect your ability to create, attract, and manifest what is already on its way... there's things that are for you, waiting for you, and they're gonna come to you at the right time, but that doesn't mean you don't have to do anything." This framework provides a compelling reason for addressing organizational challenges beyond simple productivity benefits. David's Current Loose Ends Inventory To illustrate the principle, David shares his actual current list of items requiring completion: Car repairs and maintenance – delegating to automotive experts rather than ignoring warning signs Moving logistics – relocating within the Vancouver area with minimal possessions but strategic planning Furniture acquisition – purchasing only essentials (bed, desk, office chair) for the new space Current rental cleanup – hiring professional cleaners rather than doing it himself Project management – completing client work while passing some projects to qualified beginners File organization – addressing physical mail and documentation systems Accounting maintenance – implementing regular bookkeeping rather than annual rushes This practical inventory demonstrates how even successful creators accumulate loose ends that require systematic attention. The Expert Delegation Strategy David emphasizes the importance of delegating tasks outside your zone of genius: Why hiring professional cleaners makes more sense than doing it yourself How automotive expertise prevents costly mistakes and ensures quality work The recognition that managing people may not be everyone's entrepreneurial strength The value of identifying your weaknesses and finding others who excel in those areas "I'm delegating responsibility to a capable expert... It's generally not the best and highest use of my time and energy. And so, it is much better in the hands of an expert who I know ...
