I’m back with Episode 76, and this week I’m talking about the upcoming Mesa Music Festival, the latest in indie music news — including TikTok’s U.S. deal, new AI music registration rules, and Spotify’s crackdown on fake and AI-generated tracks — plus a marketing tip every indie artist needs to hear: stop auto-posting from Instagram to Facebook! I’ve also got fresh tracks from Bear Ghost, Adam Sherman Band, The Chelsea Curve, Derek D’Acoustic, and Lynda Mandolyn to round out the show.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
