Description: "[Liz](https://lizpelly.neocities.org/) talks to us about the cultural politics and political economy of Spotify. We talk through some of the ideas in her [amazing column](https://thebaffler.com/authors/liz-pelly) for The Baffler, along with some of the listening experiments she's conducted on Spotify's algorithms (and herself), before turning to her argument for ['socialised streaming'](https://reallifemag.com/socialized-streaming/)."
