Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S6E31 - Collaboration Helps Memphis Students Succeed
Q: What is your hope for MEM access in the next year and beyond?
To ensure every student knows exactly who to go to for questions or hesitations about college, and to be proactive in guiding them through financial aid, applications, and milestones, with the goal of increasing college-going rates.
S6E25 - Memphis Makes Art Work
Q: For a Hollywood executive wanting to produce a movie, do I go straight to an artist or do I go to a catalog to get that music?
Both paths are viable; Crosstown Sync represents independent artists non-exclusively, and they also maintain catalogs to connect music supervisors with suitable tracks, illustrating a flexible, multi-path approach to licensing.
S5E25 - Memphis is Setting Records and Making Them
Q: What future plans or horizons excite you in Memphis' music scene?
Expansion of indie production capacity, more collaborations between labs and pressing plants, development of film and digital content to showcase Memphis creators, and continued promotion of the city as a global music hub.
S5E25 - Memphis is Setting Records and Making Them
Q: What makes Memphis Listening Lab and Memphis Record Pressing special institutions?
They serve as cultural and educational hubs—preserving the craft of vinyl, curating a deep collection, hosting events, and enabling local artists to press records in smaller runs, which broadens opportunities for new voices.
S5E25 - Memphis is Setting Records and Making Them
Q: Why is vinyl facing a renaissance right now in Memphis?
Because the tangible, experiential connection to music and the artist, plus accessible small-batch production for indie artists, creates a unique ecosystem that digital formats can't replicate, especially in a city with a strong cultural heritage like Memphis.
