Podcast host and author David Andrew Wiebe is known for his calm and level-headed delivery of instructional podcast content for independent musicians and music business owners. After a six-month hiatus from his previous show, DAWCast: Music Entrepreneurship, and some thoughtful deliberation, he rebranded and relaunched.

Listeners can expect to hear interviews with a wide range of people – not just musicians, experts and industry people, but also marketers, entrepreneurs and business owners that can bring a much-needed valuable perspective to the discussion. Wiebe has already had the likes of Bob Baker, James Moore, Ross Barber, Helen Austin, Eddie Meehan, Christopher Sutton, DeCarlos Garrison, Ian Temple, Melina Krumova, James Schramko, Brian Poillucci, Andrew Galucki, Deborah Fairchild, Jason Davis, Sean Murphy, Kevin Breuner, Jules Schroeder, Dobbs Franks, Johnny Vieira, Vik Rajan, Richard "Younglord" Frierson, Monica Strut, Brent Vaartstra, Matt Starr and many others.
