How do you solve a problem like Diddy? Especially when multiple women are accusing the mogul of sexual assault and the feds are on his case for human trafficking? You don’t! Instead I talk about these problems as a possible #MeToo moment in the record industry with former music publicist and retired educator Karen Packer and music producer, label owner and artist Terry Sartor.  Podcast photo attributed to Richard Burdett Photography [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ETalk2008-Diddy1.jpg] What do you think of Sean "Diddy" Combs' allegations?
