Daniel's Beverage: Piña Colada

In this episode, we chat with Daniel Scott, founder of Super Specific—an artist management and consultancy company helping musicians build sustainable, long-term careers. With years of experience in artist development and a sharp eye for strategy, Daniel shares how he helps artists move beyond the algorithm and focus on what really matters.

We dive into Daniel's career journey, his love for music beyond management, and what makes a great partnership between artist and manager—all while sipping on a smooth piña colada.

“You don’t need millions of listeners to have a meaningful career—you need a sustainable plan and an engaged audience.” — Daniel Scott

We explore the evolving role of managers, the danger of false promises, and why being super specific isn’t just a name—it’s a mindset.

Ben’s Beverage: Spicy Margarita

Big Laughs, Wild Stories & a New Short Film

This week we’re joined by the hilarious and endlessly entertaining Ben Keenan—actor, director, writer, voiceover artist, and comedy host. Our chat goes in every direction (in the best way), covering everything from performing for massive crowds to getting arrested in the airport!

Ben shares a sneak peek at a new short film he’s working on and hints at even more exciting projects on the horizon. It’s honest, funny, a little chaotic—and full of charm.

Heads up: Not unlike our drink today, the language gets a little spicy in this one.
