Epilogue
With so much to digest in the six full episodes of the podcast, we couldn't move on without reflecting on how our research has changed our views and approaches to social media as a working musician.

Ask The Audience
The sixth and final episode of the podcast brings together a panel of music fans from all walks of life, with representatives from Gen Z to the Boomer generation and everyone in between.
They join Leo and David in the studio to find out if social media really is the place that the panel meet new artists and keep up with firm favourites, or are there resources beyond the digital world that play a different role?
Covering everything from streaming habits to using online tools to develop a genuine sense of community, the final podcast in the series gives artists a chance to hear from the other side of the stage.

Cutting Through the Noise

Psychology of Digital Burnout 
with Dr Sarah Hodge
Our third episode brings us cyberpsychologist Dr Sarah Hodge from Bournemouth University. A specialist in the psychology of technology, she helps to demystify pop psychology media headlines, and shares with us insights from this growing field. We look at the subjective nature of how much infinite scrolling really is too much, and consider how to develop awareness of our own habits.

Finding Balance 
with John Parker
In the second episode we continue to investigate how other creatives are managing social media as part of their tool kit for connecting with audiences on digital platforms. We meet John Parker to find out about how social media's influence has changed throughout his career as a musician, from chart success to being one of the most in demand session musicians as a uniquely skilled double bass player. We also find out about how John has begun to set boundaries to encourage a healthy balance between the digital world and the real world.
