Introducing my new podcast Pop Music For Smart People hosted by me, Ryan Courtney. I introduce my very gay and music obsessed self in this first episode and explain the mood and concept for the podcast. This episode is about Artists in 2020 that helped to make the year a little bit less of a dumpster fire. The two artists I talk about are Ms. White and Yaeji. I also define what Ryan Courtney Music is with some help from my friends. Come join me down the rabbit hole that exists at the end of mainstream pop music and answer the question can pop music make you smarter?
