One of my favorite hobbies is yammering on about pop culture topics and books on podcasts. If you’re interested in having me appear on your show, please reach out<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a smattering of my recent podcast appearances, with a few interviews mixed in there:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Strong Sense of Place<\/strong><\/a>: In which I discuss my fierce, guilty love of Nightwing comic books and the Batman universe in general. My novel THE DIVIDE is also reviewed in this episode.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Fade Out<\/strong><\/a>: I discuss the film career of the great Raul Julia, with an emphasis on his final role, the much-maligned (but secretly awesome) 1994 Street Fighter<\/em>. I’m one of the world’s preeminent Street Fighter<\/em> apologists. So help me, that is a hilarious and strangely wonderful film, and I will arm-wrestle anyone who says otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Surely You Can’t Be Serious<\/strong><\/a>: I analyze the Miami Vice<\/em> soundtrack, track by track. Yeah, sure, it’s a great soundtrack, but something like five of the tracks on it are Jan Hammer instrumentals, and there’s really not a lot to discuss about them, so the hosts and I end up doing a lot of riffing on other songs linked to Miami Vice<\/em>, like The Tubes’ “She’s a Beauty.”<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Junk Filter<\/strong><\/a>: I discuss three of the grimmest, bleakest, most nihilistic, most utterly soul-destroying episodes of Miami Vice<\/em>. Holy hell, I love that series.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The D-Side<\/strong><\/a>: I discuss the book The Advanced Genius Theory<\/em> with its author, Jason Hartley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The D-Side<\/a>:<\/strong> I talk about the golden age of MTV with music video expert Stephen Pitalo. I used to think I was a music video expert, and then I met Stephen, and I realized I’ve been a poseur all these years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The D-Side<\/strong><\/a>: I give my first impressions of Duran Duran’s Future Past<\/em> album on its release day.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Track by Track<\/strong><\/a>: In an episode on Duran Duran’s Rio<\/em> album, I share my childhood memories of “Hungry Like the Wolf.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SandySaysRead<\/strong><\/a>: A conversation about my novel THE DIVIDE, with some detours into Duran Duran, with fantasy author Sandy Lender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shelf Talk<\/strong><\/a>: A nice interview with me about my Writers Room Residency at the Seattle Central Library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
