Looking for a freelance podcast editor (audio only!) to help me put together a ~1hr episode of The Games Press each month.
I'll provide the recordings and I'm then looking for somebody who can mix/balance, remove filler words and handle any other straightforward editing that's been requested.

For my followers in the EU, there is an European citizens’ initiative you can sign to demand the full suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement.
If you are for BDS this would be a huge step up.

Delete Spotify
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

This scale of demonetization of musical labor is WILD
2025 streaming pyramid - only the white point and the first blue shade at the top peak above the 1,000 stream level - which means those are the only tracks Spotify accounts to for *any* royalties. 88% of streaming tracks fall below the line and earn $0 (source: Luminate and @musically.com)
