On Ep,6 of ISOS: Is Podcasting denting the Music Industry? Why are you not getting your vinyl on time? And is Kendrick Lamar's "Good Kid, m.A.A.d City" the album of the decade?
For the final "In Search of Sauce" for 2019... Brandon brings a piece on Podcasting and how it's rising popularity on Spotify is a potential threat to music on the biggest streaming platform.

Charlie brings a piece on Warner Music & US distributor Direct Shot chronically not delivering CDs & vinyl to local record stores, artist merch sites & consumers.

And finally, Nigel brings an article that makes the case for Kendrick Lamar's "Good Kid, m.A.A.d City" being the album of the decade.
