Ep. #1123: Dead Best

Adam Goren and Brian Sokel from Dead Best are back to discuss GOD: Out of Order, the recent episode I did with !franklin and that band’s status, how Dead Best have evolved as a recording and live music concern, playing music with your kids and why so many young people seem to be so darn good at their instruments now days, thinking about Public Image Ltd., Pailhead, and Lard, a good Nine Inch Nails song appearing on an episode of Twin Peaks, some surprising song subject matter, order and chaos, potentially playing shows, other future plans, and much more.

Ep. #1065: Brian Raftery on ‘Hannibal Lecter: A Life’

Brian Raftery is here to discuss his excellent new book, Hannibal Lecter: A Life, the Burbank Burger King from Back to the Future, what exactly prompted him to explore the origin story and pervasiveness of Hannibal Lecter, his mysterious and seldom-interviewed creator, the best-selling author Thomas Harris, why people love fictitious and apparently also real-life antiheroes, a rundown of the history of Lecter in literature, television, and film beyond The Silence of the Lambs and why Brian Cox was such a compelling Hannibal, how the character is scarier the less we see of him, a great Patton Oswalt bit about prequels, the underrated NBC series Hannibal, why Donald Trump may have started saying, “The late, great Hannibal Lecter” at his political rallies, whether we may ever hear from Harris and Lecter again, Brian’s future plans, and much more!
