Premiere Networks and Bobby Bones have announced the addition of "The Biztape" with Colin McKay and Joe Wasilewski to Bones' Nashville Podcast Network. "The Biztape," formerly known as "That's Showbiz Baby," is a weekly podcast covering all things music business and media. Hosts Colin McKay and Joe Wasilewski are music industry professionals who provide insight into the business and technical side of these closed-curtain industries. No topic is off limits as they share their expertise, personal experiences and conversations with other insiders.

Executive produced by Bones, "The Biztape" debuts tomorrow, April 7 on the Nashville Podcast Network with weekly episodes available Wednesdays on iHeartRadio and everywhere podcasts are heard.

"We searched for a long time to find a podcast that discussed the music business from the business side," shared McKay and Wasilewski. "We wanted more advice and more depth than just 'work hard.' We decided to fill the void by creating 'The Biztape' so we could get as nerdy as we always wanted to with it. Thankfully, with the help of Bobby Bones and the Nashville Podcast Network, we have the opportunity to continue that dream and we can't wait to start creating with such a passionate and unique brand."

"I've been a fan of Joe and Colin's work for a long time and it's been exciting to watch them grow their platform," added Bones. "They have an interesting perspective from a different side of the business that people don't usually get to hear from, and I'm pumped to welcome them to our Network."

A member of the Nashville music community, McKay is a young personality on the rise. With a background in double bass classical performance that led him to play Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center, McKay focused his career on audio production and engineering. Today, the self-described "nerd's nerd" and music-history aficionado works as a live entertainment and recording industry professional.

Based in Nashville, Wasilewski is a content specialist who got his start in the music industry as a touring photographer and videographer. A "reformed musician," he works with music clients of all genres, helping them create visual brands by translating their audible medium into a visual one. He previously served as the music director for 88.3 WMTS in Murfreesboro, TN.
