Reggie Ugwu is an arts reporter for The New York Times.\n\n\u201cI find that even though I talk to celebrities or popular artists, I\u2019m not all that interested in celebrity. I\u2019m pretty uninterested in celebrity. But I\u2019m really interested in creativity.\u201d\n\nThanks to Mailchimp for sponsoring this week's episode.\n\nShow notes:\n\n@uugwuu\nUgwu on Longform\nUgwu's New York Times archive\n10:00 The Quake (Martin Smith and Marcela Gaviria \u2022 Frontline \u2022 Mar 2010)\n12:00 "Inside The Playlist Factory" (Buzzfeed \u2022 Jul 2016)\n12:00 stereogum.com\n17:00 "A Song No One Remembered.
