Episode 2: Where Are the Women???
Show Notes

In Episode 2, I continue my conversation with radio consultant Heather Leigh about sexist practices and the underrepresentation of women in radio, as well as other areas of the music industry. We discuss the latest and disturbing findings of the USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative's report on the lack of inclusiveness in the business. I also talk about the heat that the Recording Academy has taken due to their lack of representation of women in the Grammys. Heather shares her hopes for future generations in the music industry and offers some advice for listeners interested in going into radio.
