When I decided to make a second season for my podcast Success Beyond The Score, I knew I would not be satisfied unless I took it to the next level. For this reason, and as a way to circumvent the challenges posed by the lock-down measures against COVID-19, I jumped from audio to video format, and set up a series of interviews via Zoom with prominent veterans of the music industry.
