Ep. #1133: CG Tears

Post author By vish
Post date September 12, 2026

Morgan Greenwood, Clinton St. John, and Chad VanGaalen are here to discuss their new self-titled album as CG Tears, a Nina Nastasia and Silkworm show I should’ve attended, the story behind the band’s name and its formation, the time Chad misunderstood the assignment, Clint’s improvisational approach to writing lyrics and singing them and Morgan’s unique ability to organize songs, musical loops and vocal repetition, leaving, returning, but also leaving forever, the shows CG Tears has played so far and the shows they’d love to play, other future plans, and much more.

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

Post author By vish
Post date February 7, 2026

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!
