On June 25th 2025, in collaboration with Open Folk, we presented our first ever live interview event in Los Angeles. As Open Folk put it: "In These Lines is a live event where three artists each bring one song — not just to perform, but to explore. They sit down with Sofia Loporcaro, host of Before The Chorus, to talk about where the song came from, what it meant to write it, and what it still holds. Then they play it. Just the song, and the truth behind it."

Before a song is released, a record is produced, or a chorus is written, the musicians that write them think. A lot. They live. A lot. And they feel. A LOT. Hosted by award-winning interviewer Sofia Loporcaro, Before the Chorus explores the genuine human experiences behind the music. Sofia’s deep knowledge of music and personal journey with mental health help her connect with artists on a meaningful level. This is a space where fans connect with artists, and listeners from all walks of life feel seen through the stories that shape the music we love. About the host: Sofia Loporcaro is an award-winning interviewer and radio host who’s spent over 8 years helping musicians share their stories. She’s hosted shows for Amazing Radio, and Transmission Roundhouse. Now on Before the Chorus, she’s had the chance to host guests like Glass Animals, Feist, Madison Cunningham, Mick Jenkins, & Ru Paul's Drag Race winner Shea Couleé. Learn more about your ad choices.

1 Phishing Training Fails, TikTok's Backup Plan, Social Media Age Ban Bill 22:06

News and Updates: A Purdue University study found anti-phishing training may be worse than ineffective. Testing 12,000+ fintech employees, researchers saw no reduction in phishing link clicks — and in some cases, trained staff clicked slightly more often. Experts say companies should shift focus from costly training to technical defenses. TikTok is reportedly developing a new U.S.-only app, codenamed “M2,” to sidestep a pending federal ban. The replacement could debut in September as part of a sale to an Oracle-led investor group. Current TikTok would stay active until early 2026 under the tentative plan. The Kids Off Social Media Act (KOSMA) advanced in the U.S. Senate, proposing a ban on social media accounts for kids under 13 and limits on algorithms for users under 17. Critics warn the bill’s AI-based age estimation could misidentify millions of users, raising privacy and constitutional concerns.…

News and Updates: SpaceX slapped a $1,000 “demand surcharge” on new Starlink Residential subscribers in parts of Washington, Oregon, and Northern Idaho, pushing startup costs as high as $1,349. The fee aims to slow adoption and prevent network congestion — a sharp climb from $100 last year. Windows 11 has finally overtaken Windows 10 in global desktop market share. Statcounter data shows Windows 11 now holds 52%, after nearly four years and hardware requirement hurdles slowed its rollout. Microsoft’s push included full-screen upgrade ads and end-of-life warnings for Windows 10. A deep report reveals a culture shift inside Microsoft, as AI investment frenzy and post-Covid leadership changes undermine employee morale. Long-time staff describe a climate of fear, layoffs, and performance metrics tied to AI tool use like Copilot — with CFO Amy Hood said to be steering strategy over Satya Nadella. Amazon now operates over 1 million robots in its warehouses, with automation assisting 75% of global deliveries. While robots have replaced many manual tasks, Amazon says it’s retraining workers for higher-skilled roles managing the machines. Productivity has soared, though concerns persist over future job cuts in heavily automated sites.…

News and Updates: Google Earth turns 20 — Google celebrates two decades of Earth exploration with historical Street View now added to Google Earth. Highlights include viral launches, disaster response after Katrina, aiding scientific discoveries, the Saroo Brierley story from Lion , and the viral #somewhereonGoogleMaps trend. 400 million Windows PCs vanished — Microsoft quietly revealed Windows active devices dropped from 1.4B in 2022 to 1B in 2025 as home users retire PCs without replacing them. The market is shifting toward business and mobile-first devices. Microsoft offers cheaper Windows 10 security updates — Instead of a $30 fee, consumers can now enroll in Extended Security Updates with 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points or by using Windows Backup on OneDrive. The Blue Screen of Death turns black — Windows 11’s infamous BSOD gets a minimalist black redesign in version 24H2, ditching the frowny face and QR code in favor of a cleaner UI. Windows 11 restore points now expire faster — With the June 2025 update, system restore points in Windows 11 24H2 expire after 60 days instead of 90, requiring users to monitor backups more closely. Microsoft makes AI use mandatory for staff — Company leaders are pushing employees to adopt internal AI tools like GitHub Copilot, with some teams considering AI usage as a formal review metric starting next fiscal year.…

News and Updates: Brazil’s Supreme Court voted to hold social media companies liable for illegal user content, moving tech regulation closer to Europe’s model. Critics warn it may stifle free speech as platforms preemptively censor content. A New York judge ruled a wrongful death lawsuit against Meta and TikTok can proceed, finding it plausible their algorithms actively targeted dangerous “subway surfing” videos to a teen. Section 230 protections may not apply if discovery confirms active promotion. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld Texas’ age-verification law for porn sites in a 6-3 decision, ruling it doesn’t violate First Amendment rights. Critics warn it endangers privacy and chills lawful adult expression. Ford CEO Jim Farley called China’s EV industry “humbling,” praising Xiaomi’s $35K SU7 as better than U.S. rivals in cost, range, and in-vehicle tech. U.S. automakers remain hampered by high battery costs and policy shifts. Another Tesla in Full Self-Driving mode drove onto train tracks in Pennsylvania — one of several recent incidents highlighting persistent safety flaws.
