Madison Arruda joins us for the first time and the energy feels natural. We talk about stand-up comedy, local open mics, sports, and how everyone has that one friend who’s obsessed with gambling or sports betting. From there it turns into tech talk—mics, interfaces, Logic Pro, recording gear, and what really goes on behind the scenes when you make music or run a podcast.Madison breaks down how she built her own home studio completely by herself. She mixes and masters her music, records vocals, and explains how she started producing during lockdown. We talk about finding beats online, collaborating with producers, and how YouTube instrumentals can actually launch real careers. She tells stories about creating songs, experimenting with sounds, and how she balances making art with running a business.That leads into the viral TikTok moment that brought her here. One short video of her studio took off and reached thousands of people. From that, new clients started coming in, more eyes found her music, and it even led to this podcast. We talk about how unpredictable the algorithm is—how you can post every day for years and the one video you don’t overthink is the one that changes everything.She explains the reality of being an independent artist: setting boundaries, protecting her space, dealing with unreliable clients, and learning how to say no. We get into what it takes to build consistency, handle marketing, and stay motivated when you’re doing everything yourself. She talks about how she posts daily on multiple accounts, and how creating music became both her passion and full-time grind.
