CMU’s Andy Malt and Chris Cooke review key events in music and the music business from the last week. On this episode we're discussing just one story that dominated the headlines over the last seven days - Neil Young's protest against the Joe Rogan Experience podcast on Spotify. Saying that Rogan is "spreading fake information about vaccines", Young issued an ultimatum - ditch Rogan, or remove all of his music from its platform. Spotify chose Rogan.
Please note: This episode was recorded prior to Spotify CEO Daniel Ek and Joe Rogan's latest statements on Neil Young's protest.
