Hi Podcast listeners! Thanks for downloading! In our first segment, Ryan talks to Dave about his new golden retriever puppy Molly. R & D also discuss a recent article by former Podcast guest Kosha Dillz that appeared in Hypebot about the promotional value artists can gain by appearing on podcasts. In many ways, appearing on podcasts can give an artist more promotional juice than being featured in a blog. Podcasts allow potential fans to get to know more of your story, and the podcasting audience tends to be more devoted to the media they are consuming. In the end, making podcasts a part of your promotional strategy can lead to increased fan engagement. In the second segment, musician and music entrepreneur Cheryl B. Engelhardt stops by. Cheryl talks to Ryan about her platform "In The Key of Success," which provides courses, guides, and other resources for DIY artists.

Hi Podcast Listeners! The Break the Business Podcast is celebrating its 50th episode, and we have a terrific show for you to enjoy. This week, we have great music industry advice, comedy sketches, and some former guests stop by to congratulate Ryan and Dave on the Big 5-0. In the first segment, Ryan and Dave discuss the recent David Byrne article in the New York Times about music streaming and who's to blame for artists making little money off of platforms like Spotify. While it is easy to blame the streaming companies, perhaps the blame might lie with major labels who are using mysterious deals to siphon money away from signed and unsigned artists alike. In the second segment, indie folk artist Danielle Ate The Sandwich stops by. We talk with her about her awesome stage name, her experience composing a film soundtrack, and her Kickstarter campaign for her latest album "The Terrible Dinner Guest," which is coming out next month. We premiere a track off her new album on the Podcast! Visit https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/daniellesandwich/support-danielle-ate-the-sandwichs-terrible-new-al right now to support her campaign. You have a couple days left to contribute. Do it! She's a great artist. In the final segment, Ryan commemorates the Podcast's 50th episode by performing a song on his ukulele about the Podcast. Unlike Danielle, Ryan is not a great musician. But he tries so hard. "A" for effort! Ryan and Dave also discuss a real-life Star Wars Cantina that is being built and we also give you Dave's Metal Minute. Happy 50th! Thank you all very much for listening.

Hi Podcast Listeners. Thanks for listening and tell a friend! Happy Valentine's Day! In the first segment, Ryan and Dave talk about a Music Think Tank blog article that leaked the talent contracts for the upcoming NBC music competition show Songland. Spoiler alert: The agreements are a mess. R & D rip the contract to shreds and Ryan gives some helpful guidance on how indie artists should approach reality show competition contracts generally. In the second segment, adult contemporary singer-songwriter Krista Hartman stops by to talk about her songwriting process, how to handle the challenges of being a woman in the music industry, and how to make engaging music videos on a budget. Ryan and Dave love her music, and they know you will too! In the final segment, R & D recap their Grammy contest from last week. They each randomly selected a nominee from each of the four major categories and, whoever picks the fewest winners on Grammy night (Monday), that host will have to write and read an ode to the other host on next week's show. The stakes are high, and the hosts are feeling the pressure. We also have Valentine's Day talk and the return of Dave's Metal Minute. Rate/review/subscribe to the Podcast on iTunes and SoundCloud.

Thanks Josh, you are the best! In the second segment, CD Baby's Director of Marketing Kevin Breuner stops by. He gives great insight into major label life through his experience as a member of the Grammy nominated band Smalltown Poets. He also gives useful advice on how artists can promote themselves. Be sure to check out Kevin's DIY Musician Podcast. It is great! In the final segment, Ryan and Dave debut a new segment, "Dave's Metal Minute," hosted by Metal Dave. Metal Dave is the greatest (Yeeaaaaah!!!). After the Minute Minute, R & D play a very high-stakes game with the Grammys coming up next week. They randomly pick Grammy winners.

Kelsey "Chapstick" Zimmerman joins the story. Kelsey tells us how she went from a West Virginia drummer/rock fan to a New York City metal industry artists' spouse. She is part of the metal twitter family and is actually kinda hilarious. Kelsey works for Blast Beat Network and gives some insight on what metal advertising is all about. She is an accomplished drummer having won awards in her past; she now plays in the band Manutara. Kelsey's first spin was Zeppelin which CLEARLY leads a metal fan to Incubus...I know just listen. She reveals how she meets her husband (artist Aaron Zimmerman) but she still loves this one dude named Jasper even more. She also teaches my old ass about "mean mugging"...which I had to look up. Ugh. I suck. Another fun chapter from awesome industry folk who are worth the listen. Seth W of the Skull Toasting W's joins me on the intro to tell us about a new podcast that I want everyone to subscribe to because it's hilarious. The new METAL MINUTE is exactly up the alley of all of this growing online community and #metalbandcampgiftclub supporters. It's made by Seth and Petkau, the guy helping support the #metalbandcampgiftclub birthday lists. Check. It. Out. Support.
