Episode 4: Sexual Harassment in the Music Industry
Show Notes

Warning: this episode features mature themes and discussions of sexual assault. As this may be triggering for some, listeners’ discretion is advised. In Episode 4, I discuss the rampant sexual harassment that women experience in the music industry with radio consultant Heather Leigh.  We discuss sexual assault cases made by women musicians such as Taylor Swift, Kesha and  Lily Allen, as well as the industry's lagging efforts to make a change or hold the men in the industry accountable.  Heather also shares her own experiences and sheds light on the disgusting "casting couch" practice in the industry.
