Ep. #1149: Ghostkeeper

Shane Ghostkeeper returns to discuss the new Ghostkeeper album, Balloon Moon, Alberta opting out of Daylight saving time, his busy schedule as a filmmaker and cinematic actor, sharing these pursuits with his young son and wife, why music was surprisingly his second passion, the enduring resonance of obscure films he’s only seen once on late night TV as a kid, the roles he’s often offered and why he’s selective about accepting them, how acting has impacted him as a dynamically powerful singer on this new album, why he booked a recording session without any completed songs ready to go, what inspired him to get a band back together for it, what’s next for Ghostkeeper, other future plans, and much more.

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!
