It strikes me that music is extraordinarily strange and powerful. But it really doesn't get much discussion that way. So I started a podcast. It's part of a larger book writing project I'm working on. The podcast features conversations with musicians and related experts. It will be updated monthly. It's not about conspiracy really, but more about embracing the strangeness of what music is and grappling with the implications of this. Currently available on podbean and spotify.
Soon available on other platforms. Thanks for your support! 🙂
Now available on itunes! If you listen to and like the show, give the podcast a review please! 🙂

It is really good so far, I'm still at the beginning but I read vol 1 (the inner life...) first which I also highly recommend

Could I read volume 2 and understand it without reading volume 1?

Yes I think so
There's a new episode up about a band who turned an accesibility bus into a travelling stage to bring live music to the people despite the restrictions.
I also wrote an article at my website about money and music: https://musicmeaningandmystery.ca/2021/08/29/money-and-music-dispelling-the-illusion/
