In this episode I discuss a recent news story that may have a major impact on creatives. Plus I share some updates about my new song and a new way to support me and my creative endeavours.

Should Spotify and ask wether Spotify should continue to host Joe Rogan, whatever the views expressed on his show? Or are Neil Young and Joni Mitchell right to boycott Spotify in response to what they see as the spread of dangerous misinformation? I find this one tricky, what do you think? There's lots of reasons for musicians to want to leave Spotify, and what about all the other social media and streaming platforms, are they our friends or are they taking advantage of our creativity...
