  • Spotify is changing, so one indie artist is advocating for fairness in a stream-heavy world

    Spotify is changing, so one indie artist is advocating for fairness in a stream-heavy world
    2025/05/01
    For indie musicians like Julianna Zachariou, Spotify has made music more accessible than ever — but at a cost. With payouts that amount to less than a penny per stream, she's had to turn to crowdfunding and direct fan support to fund her projects. She opens up about the personal toll these struggles take and how she's found ways to stay true to her craft while facing these challenges. In this episode, we break down Spotify's business model, the economics of streaming and what it really takes to sustain a career without major-label backing. Julianna's story is a powerful reminder of the need for change in the industry and how we can all play a role in supporting the artists who enrich our lives.

    San Diego's poets laureate on being a 'government artist' and knocking poetry off its pedestal
    2025/04/17
    What does it mean to be a "government artist" in San Diego? Outgoing Poet Laureate Jason Magabo Perez shares the lessons he's learned from his two-year term, where he brought the city's neighborhoods to life through his vivid poetry. As Paola Capó-García takes on the mantle, she talks about her plans to bring a fresh perspective to the role and expand poetry's reach. In this conversation, both poets dive into how they demystify poetry for students and the public, and how they can connect and uplift San Diego's diverse communities through verse.

  • Making it in music: How do you create a local music scene in a 'superstar economy'?

    Making it in music: How do you create a local music scene in a 'superstar economy'?
    2025/04/10
    San Diego's music scene is full of talent, but making a living off your art? That's a different story. Shua, a Southeast San Diego artist with over a million Spotify streams, has lived both extremes: signing a record deal and later facing near homelessness. In this episode, he shares the highs and lows of his career, what it means to be an independent musician today and why fan support is more crucial than ever. We also break down the brutal reality of the modern music industry, where the biggest stars are increasingly taking home the bulk of the earnings while local and indie artists fight to stay afloat. And we explore why local music matters, what we lose when artists can't afford to make their art. Whether you're an artist, a music lover or just curious about how the industry really works, this episode offers a perspective you won't forget.
