Episode Resources

Here are the books, images and sounds featured or referred to in S2 E6 of the Sum of Everything Podcast, because the character limit in the show notes was simply insufficient, and I had to come up with a clever way to credit them!

Strong Independent Woman

I am a Strong Independent Woman I live alone, call a foreign land my home, earn my keep, and pay off my loans.  I am a Strong Independent Woman I cook all my meals, do the laundry,  do all my chores, and even spend my own money at stores. I am a Strong Independent Woman I pay all my bills on time, never on a borrowed dime, and at the end of the day, I enjoy a margarita with lime. I am a Strong Independent Woman  I stay out late, sometimes go on dates,  No one to question me, restrictions I hate. I am a Strong Independent Woman I handle disappointments with my head high rarely expressing more than a sigh.  I am a Strong Independent Woman I cry sometimes; I won't lie But rarely do I want to curl up and die.

I am a Strong independent Woman my shoulders do ache with all the responsibilities I carry,...

People We Have Lost

Sometimes though, the blow can be life altering. Loss is a feeling I am reasonably familiar with. Not only have I lost numerous possessions to the void of clumsy forgetfulness (I am convinced there is a galactic lost and found box that holds all the hair clips and rubber bands l have misplaced over the years with the only explanation for their random disapp...

The End of the Spotify Era?

Your favourite artist may be on their way to take down their music from Spotify. If you suddenly can’t seem to find the song you were listening to on Spotify, you may be interested to know that several musicians are in the process of taking down their music from being available on the streaming platform, if they haven't already. Here's Why - 1.       Lowest royalty payout rates for artists – Spotify is infamous in the music industry for being the platform with some of the lowest royalty payout rates for artists. This is particularly important since the payment structure is not a per play per day basis, but on a slice-of-pie basis. Basically, Spotify keeps a percentage of the total revenue it receives and distributes the rest based on the streams generated by the artist on a pro-rated basis. While this appears fair, however, the existence of bot streams (which are ridiculously easy to buy) complicates the matter since bot streams significantly reduce the section of t...
