    DUBSTEP WITH A SPARKLE | ft. Megatron (Her Return)

    Join Grandpa Wook and the gang, as they take you on a side quest through the Pacific Northwest's ever-growing rave scene! Today, a familiar face returns to the show, DJ Megatron, and we are excited to welcome her back to the conversation! It has been two years since her last appearance, and so much has happened/changed since: both for her career, and the scene in general. During this episode, the gang got to ask Megatron about what changes she's noticed, her career progression, how she stays organized, women empowerment, and her transition from being a "dj" to a full-blown artist. It's a lengthy one, but we promise, you'll be engaged the whole way through! As you'll be able to hear, we have been so fortunate to upgrade the quality of audio of our podcast. This is thanks in part to C89.5FM radio in Seattle, Washington. It is through their hospitality and passion that we have been able to progress as a show, and give you, Side Questers, the best listening experience possible. So grateful to shout them out, and their program manager, Harmony Soleil, in this episode, and look forward to our continual collaboration. C89.5 is one of the only dance-music specific radio stations in the country, and is almost entirely publicly funded. It is through their listeners that they are able to operate and provide opportunities to collaborate with this podcast. Visit C89.5.org for more details and their story!
