Sylvia Massy Episode 9

On this episode of Hot Pot Poddie, we sit down with legendary producer and engineer Sylvia Massy. She formally received a Grammy in 2024 for her engineering/mixing work on Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit's Weathervanes.  We dive into her incredible 45 year career working with artists like Tool, Johnny Cash, Prince and System of a Down. We chat about recording experimentation, vintage microphones, and her new book The Great Vintage Microphone Book. We also got the goods on her favorite mic for female vocals, the RCA KU3A ribbon mic. Sylvia also shares stories about her all girl band in San Francisco, her Studio Confidential chats, teaching with Abbey Road Institute in Mumbai. Finally, we learned about some wonderfully strange topics, including running audio through a potato and her dinosaur egg she bought in Florida.  Sylvia’s charity of choice The world's best hospital - Mayo Clinic https://www.mayoclinic.org/ Sylvia Massy’s new book, The Great Book of Vintage Microphones, co-authored with Chris Johnson, is scheduled for release in September 2026 Link to book pre-order 👇 https://www.amazon.com/Great-Vintage-Microphones-Music-Guides/dp/154002623X Her latest work with-Sylvia Massy meticulously worked with the band, Monolord to help craft this new album called Neverending Their New single out -You Bastard https://www.instagram.com/monolordofficial?igsh=MWEzOTJpbGY2b3lrbQ== MONOLORD | 'Neverending' Out May 29, 2026 - YouTube Her latest work with- Ruth Lorenzo https://open.spotify.com/artist/24EtVHju2o9Zm5P39iKosx?si=1RgYDuhtTV-D59OqyzOgKA https://www.instagram.com/ruthlorenzomusic?igsh=djluYm1iZDJnNjlr SylviaMassy.com https://shop.sylviamassy.com/ Her Oddio Shop The Oddio Shop is an artfully chaotic recording and mixing studio in a breathtaking museum setting.

Kalyn Rose Heffernan Episode 8

Today folks we are on the edge of our seats with this heavy hitting guest that’s no stranger to the Colorado music scene. Today, we bring you the lead show stopper from Wheelchair Sports Camp. This genre bending, punk-powered hip-hop project is fronted by Kalyn Rose Heffernan - a wheelchair-using, profanely queer and tiny rapper, with a very distinctly high-pitched sense of humor.  In this episode of Hot Pot Poddie Podcast, we dive into her experience in the Colorado music scene, her creative process, and what it means to show up unapologetically as an artist.
