There are now going to be 3 new episodes and 1 repeat a month, Air date: May 26 Guests: Elizabeth @elizabeth.dreeson and Wes @westcott_wes from the Almost Familiar Podcast @almostfamilairpod Synopsis: This episode gets into the sticky subject of what to do with your memories and attachment to music and artists that you later learn have done harm. For some, this is a very easy decision, for others its not. This week, Staysee Marie is joined by the Almost Familiar Podcast team, Elizabeth and Wes. The chat explores our obligations to the survivors in our music scenes, the stages that one goes through after an idol has been called out, why we need to stop with idolatry altogether, and how to think through what this all means for your relationship with the music and the memories. NOTE - this episode does talk about sexual violence allegations. High-profile EDM allegations are mentioned, but the specifics are not talked about. Check out the resources / support highlight of the Instagram (just added) if you are feeling overwhelmed.

Air date: may 12, 201 Guests: Joe Nice and Kat wells Synopsis: THIS EPISODE IS ALL TALK NO MUSIC. A couple days after launch, @joenicedj and @katwells22 and I recorded this cross over episode, discussing how racism, concepts of safer spaces and harm reduction all interconnect in electronic music festival culture. Electronic music communities often center the concept of PLUR - peace, love, unity and respect… how does anti-racism fit into this ? This is a jam-packed, hour long conversation that unpacks all this and more. If you enjoyed this episode, please check out @joeandkatchats a weekly show (that also airs here on tastemakers about abolishing White Supremacy and institutionalized racism.

Air date: April 28 Guest: Kristin Karas and Sloane Ferenchak, Dance Safe Synopsis: This show picks up a topic introduced in earlier shows, a topic that's a favorite at @sanctuary_radio: sex and consent! This episode spends a bit more time talking about the positive aspects of sex on drugs. You may be familiar with harm reduction, but have you heard the term benefit maximization? Benefit maximization goes beyond knowledge that helps you navigate a situation with less risk, to a conversation that talks about an experience that is less risky AND pleasurable, enjoyable and the most fun! Note: this episode talks very explicitly about sex and drugs. The paper referenced (and quoted) is Pharmacosex: Reimagining sex, drugs and enhancement by Leah Moyle, Alex Dymock, Alexandra Aldridge, Ben Mechen Music: Places by @shlohmo (throwback much?) Take 2 by @ohyeapaulchin ft @shadkmusic Jour 1 by Hildegard Vietnam by @trickyofficial (lafawndah_ remix)

Air date: April 21, 2021 Guest : Mohawk, regional outreach coordinator and president of New York DanceSafe, Inc Synopsis: Staysee Marie’s guest this week is the iconic Mohawk (@therebeleducationist) and we are talking about...GHB! We get into a bit of the history of G, the benefits, tips for safer use, and why a total ban in the club scene is not the safest move. Mohawk is the technical program manager at Next Distro and the regional outreach coordinator and president of New York DanceSafe, Inc., a nonprofit that started off as DanceSafe’s New York-based Chapter @nydancesafe. As a longstanding member of the electronic music community, they organize and oversee harm reduction and health-and-safety outreach to members of many music communities within New York (including LGBTQ). They participate with DanceSafe nationally, and with global harm reduction agencies such as ANKORS, Safe ‘n’ Sound and Unity. They also create informational resources, give lectures at Berkeley College and collaborate with organizations such as Drug Policy Alliance and Harm Reduction Coalition.
