In this episode of Mystic Soundwaves, we cross the Atlantic and dive into the beating heart of New York City’s indie music scene with Sam Sumpter, one of its most dedicated and influential voices.

A DJ, journalist, promoter, manager, author, and founder of Bands Do BK, Sam has devoted his career to documenting, supporting, and connecting artists, venues, and music communities across New York. What began as a Brooklyn-based blog evolved into a book, a radio show, and a newsletter that have become essential resources for anyone interested in the city’s independent music culture.

Throughout the conversation, we explore the evolution of New York’s indie scene, Brooklyn’s continuing role as a creative hub, the cultural importance of independent venues, and the challenges posed by the city’s rising costs. Sam reflects on what makes New York unique for emerging artists and how the local music ecosystem continues to adapt and survive.

We also discuss the vital role of venues such as Arlene’s Grocery and Our Wicked Lady, the question of whether a distinct “New York sound” still exists, and the enduring value of non-commercial radio in an era dominated by streaming platforms. Drawing from his experience managing the Brooklyn punk band Mary Shelley, Sam offers an insider’s perspective on touring across the United States, Canada, and Europe, as well as the current state of punk culture in Brooklyn.

This episode is a conversation about community, cultural resilience, independent spaces, and the people working behind the scenes to keep one of the world’s most influential music scenes alive.

Tune in and discover how New York continues to reinvent itself through independent music.

Towards the end of last year, Australia did something no other country had ever tried: it banned social media for kids under 16. And a bunch of others are following with similar laws, first Denmark, then France, then Indonesia and Austria. All in, there are now more than 25 countries that have either implemented, or are actively considering, social media bans for kids. It seems like Canada is moving there as well. In April, the Liberal party adopted a non-binding motion to restrict young people’s access to both social media and AI chatbots.

All over the world, you can hear parents breathing a sigh of relief. They’ve spent the last decade watching their kids become hooked on their devices, and now we’re doing something about it. It looks like we’re finally going to get our kids back.

But researchers like Candice Odgers are skeptical. Odgers is a psychology professor at UC Irvine who’s been studying the digital lives of young people for almost 20 years now, long before anyone was worried about what social media was doing to their brains. She says there isn’t really any research to suggest these bans will work. But her argument goes even deeper than that: she says the idea that smartphones have caused a youth mental health crisis just isn’t supported by the evidence.

So as governments all over the world start to kick kids off social media, and maybe even AI chatbots as well, Candice Odgers thinks we’re making a serious mistake. And I want to know if she’s right.

• The Anxious Generation, by Jonathan Haidt (Penguin Press, 2024). 
• Australia’s under-16 social media ban — the Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Act 2024, in effect 10 December 2025 — eSafety Commissioner.
• National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, “Social Media and Adolescent Health” (2024).
• Hunt Allcott et al., “The Effects of School Phone Bans: National Evidence from Lockable Pouches,” NBER (2026) — near-zero effects on test scores, attendance, and bullying.
• The University of Manchester #BeeWell study finding no link between social media/gaming use and later anxiety or depression, Journal of Public Health (2026).
• “The Kids Are All Right,” Scientific American (2026) — young people doing better than prior generations on many metrics.
• The Stanford-led evaluation of Australia’s ban (Stanford Social Media Lab with the eSafety Commission), finding most teens stayed on the platforms — The Conversation.
• The early-1980s Pac-Man moral panic (Surgeon General C. Everett Koop’s 1982 warning; municipal moves to restrict arcades) — Freethink.
• Section 230 of the US Communications Decency Act (47 U.S.C. § 230) — Cornell Legal Information Institute
• Canada’s Gen(Z)AI youth assembly on AI (~100 young Canadians aged 17–23), Centre for Media, Technology and Democracy, findings presented in Ottawa.

Canadians hear a lot of advice about credit scores, but much of it is outdated, oversimplified, or borrowed from the U.S. and simply doesn't apply here.

Does carrying a balance help? Does checking your score hurt it? Can you pay to remove bad credit? Does having a high income automatically mean a strong score?
