Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

DJ Tara on the legacy of J Dilla and New York’s changing social fabric
Q: And we'd love to maybe just start by kind of going into your journey in music, where you got started. Was there any kind of sounds or artists or particular experiences that catalyzed you wanting to get into music?
Tara describes growing up in Brooklyn in an immigrant Haitian household with varied musical influences, from Haitian music to hip-hop, house, and broader dance music. She talks about her early days as a party promoter in NYC, how witnessing artists like Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, and local jam sessions shaped her path, and how her later nonprofit Donuts Are Forever project grew from tributes to J Dilla into a long-standing fundraiser with a focus on supporting future producers.
Whitney Wei on club culture and what makes a great Editor-In-Chief
Q: How do you think AI will interact with the music industry?
AI will provide tools that might replace some tasks, but the unique energy and perspective of skilled craftsmen in writing and music will continue to hold value and cannot be replicated.
Whitney Wei on club culture and what makes a great Editor-In-Chief
Q: Could you tell us a little bit more about the book you're working on?
I'm writing a coming-of-age novel set against Berlin's club scene, aiming to capture contemporary club culture in a way that hasn't been done before.
Whitney Wei on club culture and what makes a great Editor-In-Chief
Q: So maybe for somebody who's kind of just getting started out in journalism, what does it mean to be editor-in-chief?
An editor-in-chief has to maintain a general strategy while managing multiple editorial meetings and guiding the direction of the publication, requiring both macro vision and granular detail in their work.
