CHIRP Radio Podcasts

CHIRPradio.org is a listener-supported music and arts focused community radio station in Chicago staffed by more than 150 volunteers. In addition to our live programming we produce a series of shows and interviews and provide them through our various podcasts.

This week, Features contributor Marjorie Alford speaks with Chicago-based mental health advocate, author, artist, actor and producer Juice Mazelee. They discuss the importance of art and quality over quantity, minding your mental health, the social justice climate of Chicago in the summer of 2020, creative outlets and community support beyond his music, and advice for aspiring artists.

Juice has a new single, “HEY MAMA,” available now on all major streaming platforms.

Produced by Jono Lyle and Brian Szpak.
