Summary

Look I know we've been talking about Spotify a lot but somehow we got legendary musician, recording engineer, and music industry iconoclast Steve Albini to come on and talk about it so everyone sit down and shut up and listen because class is in SESSION. Also there's an audio problem at one point in the episode but we fix it and I couldn't take it out because it would have messed up an important part of the conversation. Also if you're the band that practices next door to me congratulations you're now on a track with Steve Albini kind of. STEVE ALBINI (he's anti-plug but check out this thing he wrote in 1993 which we reference on the podcast) https://thebaffler.com/salvos/the-problem-with-music JAKE'S SHOWS MeatSpace Comedy NYC 2/15 https://www.ticketweb.com/event/meatspace-comedy-jake-flores-simone-the-gutter-tickets/11755105?pl=scenic RushTix Comedy ONLINE 2/24 https://rushtix.com/events/jakeflores/ MERCH poddamnamerica.bigcartel.com PATREON for BONUS EPS and DISCORD patreon.com/poddamnamerica
