Angus Fletcher explains great storytelling art & technique. Most importantly, we discussed why great artists don’t quit and why you shouldn’t give up on your dreams. The truth is being an artist or storyteller requires a well-formulated technique but that technique is useless if you’re going to quit on your dream of being an artist or author.

So if you’re interested in making your own documentary or just watching a documentary that might make you cry, this conversation with Sean Dunne offers both.

Stephen Witt explains how music got free through music piracy.
What happened to Limewire and Megaupload? Websites like Limewire helped pirates illegally download thousands of songs for free as mp3’s, crushing major record labels and exposing the music industry until eventually “music got free.”
Stephen Witt is a Los Angeles-based writer with a focus on investigative journalism. He is best known for his book How Music Got Free. First published in June 2015, How Music Got Free is a narrative history of music piracy and tells the true story of the scientists, smugglers, and suits who fought the Internet’s first content war. It covers the scientific development of the mp3 and the fall of the record industry in detail, but the core of the story is the organized criminal conspiracy that infiltrated the music industry’s supply chain, leaking more than 10,000 albums to the Internet.
