A Non-Exhaustive, Probably Outdated List of Podcasts I’ve Hosted and Appeared On
my current podcast focus:
Star Wars Music Minute is a podcast that I host and produce. Each episode delves into the music and sound contained within 5 minutes of a single Star Wars film.
You can find it wherever you normally get podcasts and on YouTube, where I livestream music commentary on Star Wars TV shows with my friends Justin Scheid, James Waterman, and Christina Ward (The Band Batch).
Underscore was a short-lived but pretty awesome podcast that I co-hosted with composer/pianist Thomas Kotcheff for Classical KUSC. We interviewed composers and artists who were creating “beyond the boundaries of classical music” (or something like that).

haven’t updated this one in a while:
Xanthe Briefly is my unscripted, 3-minute podcast where I give the real scoop on what it's like as a youngish independent artist making it work in LA.
What to expect: career real talk, mental health thoughts, life hacks, vegan tips, brief rants, raves, obsessions, conundrums.
