Music Matters With MonkeyBoy & Ziggy Season 2 Episode 7

This week on Music Matters, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the biggest forces in modern radio: iHeart. Andy and Ziggy dive into their own time working inside the company — the good, the bad, and the decisions that shaped what millions of people hear every single day.

We’re talking about how one corporation became the gatekeeper for hundreds of stations, how national playlists replaced local voices, and how that shift changed the sound of rock, pop, and everything in between. It’s part personal story, part industry breakdown, and part reality check about who really controls the music pipeline.

If you’ve ever wondered why radio sounds the way it does, why certain artists get pushed while others disappear, or what it’s like behind the scenes at the biggest radio company in America, this is the episode you don’t want to miss.
