  • The Rise and Fall and Future of the Music Video - Part 2

    The Rise and Fall and Future of the Music Video - Part 2
    Mar 4 2026
    The music video didn’t just shape pop culture…it defined it. From the glam‑soaked excess of the ’80s and ’90s to the gritty authenticity of the alt‑rock era, and finally to the algorithm‑driven, globally connected internet age, the music video has lived many lives. In part two of this deep dive, we trace the rise, collapse, and surprising rebirth of the music video that once ruled MTV and MuchMusic. We look at the groundbreaking work of directors like Spike Jonze, the multimillion‑dollar spectacles of superstars like Madonna and Michael Jackson, and the moment YouTube and smartphones permanently rewired how we watch, and make, music videos. From Pearl Jam’s refusal to play the game, to viral sensations like OK Go, to the billion‑view world of K‑pop and global micro‑scenes, we discover that the music video isn’t dead. It escaped television. And it’s thriving. This is Part 2 of the Rise and Fall and Future of the Music Video. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • The Rise and Fall and Future of the Music Video - Part 1

    The Rise and Fall and Future of the Music Video - Part 1
    Feb 25 2026
    For decades, music videos weren’t just promotional add‑ons…they were the beating heart of global pop culture. The music video affected the art of movie-making...it affected the way we look at tv, not to mention fashion, language, politics, gender fluidity, LGBTQ issues, and so much more…videos may have altered our attention spans–which kind of concerns me because this program is an hour long and I need you to hang in there with me... Music videos exported soft power from the West, especially the United States, to the rest of the world. At one point, MTV was one of the most influential creators and disseminators of culture….and by “culture” I mean America. That was then…music videos are still an art form and still necessary (well, mostly necessary) for promoting music…but things just aren’t what they used to be… How did we get to this point?...this is the rise and fall and future of the music video…part 1 Learn more about your ad choices.

  • A Brief History of Protest Music: Part 2

    A Brief History of Protest Music: Part 2
    Feb 18 2026
    Music is not only a powerful motivating tool, but it’s also a way to get a message out to a vast number of people…and when things hit the fan, music can be used to let the powers-that-be know that we see what you’re doing, and we are not happy about it…We wish to protest. Protest songs help coalesce thoughts and feelings about things like social, political, and labour injustice…they help rally people to a cause and sometimes inspire action against oppressors or those who seek to abrogate rights, keep people down, and try to gain power by spreading lies and propaganda. Sometimes they call out specific people, organizations, and issues…in other cases, they’re couched in metaphors and stories…but make no mistake: this music is “us” and “them” and the “them” needs to be addressed. This kind of music has never gone away and is still very much with us…despite that, a lot of people ask, “Whatever happened to protest songs?” Nothing…they’re right here…and they’ve always been right in front of us…let me explain…this is a brief history of protest music, part 2.
