The Live Podcast hosted by Jimi D and Tim Wolf started with a warm greeting for  the not so late Independence Day. Tim Wolf mentioned that their neighborhood was having firecrackers as their way of celebrating the anniversary of national independence. Celebrating Independence Day on the fourth of July is not all about the firecrackers. Jimi D says that having a Music Festival is still the biggest deal of the town but due to COVID19, all public events including the festival are cancelled. Instead of losing hope, Jimi celebrated the independence day by going to his friend's house where they had fun, played music and watched the firecrackers above. "It's nice because in 2020, it seems normal and it's a very welcome thing for me to see those fireworks." Jimi added. Tim then agreed and mentioned how the entertainment plays and musicals are falling apart due to the pandemic. The musical director who's in charge of the events in cruise ships and the person who used to be very big in the cruise entertainment industry is also affected with the situation where all of his events in cruise are cancelled. According to Jimi, COVID19 is something that we should take seriously because we don't know when a virus can affect the entire family. Tim also shared how his friend's wife died due to COVID19. Their topic switched to a book written by Ari Herstand which fits any musical artist out there where Ari said that "Of all musicians artists that get signed to a record label, 98 percent lose that deal." Tim then commented and said that the whole model of the record industry is screwed up on how they run their business. The reason for that is because there were a lot of artists who signed contracts, even recorded albums, but none of them get a single release. "Record Labels focused more on hiring someone like Post Malone, Bruno Mars and Ariana Grande." Tim added. Jimi also mentioned that it also happened to Spin Doctors who came out with their album where they got the major deal and the label says "We need another album in six months." but the group needed a year and a half to get a good album together. Jimi thinks that the artist or the bands are just experiencing what beginners should experience because Indie Labels weren't doing that to the Rosters where they're allowing them to take more time to create a record or album.  The Podcast ended where Tim mentioned Bruce Sprinsgteen as the Iconic 21st century rock artist. Bruce had his final Broadway show where everyone was dying to see his final run as a solo show. "Those tickets were going for thousands upon thousand of dollars I think figures are around like 8 thousand dollars per ticket." Jimi stated.
