115. Tempestuous feat. @asukahomo (links in bio) Zach joins us once again. This time to talk about William Shakespeare's final play, The Tempest, as well as Julie Taymor's 2010 film adaptation starring Helen Mirren as a gender-swapped Prospero.

For my new stack, just recorded the Final Word on the literary men discourse with @Rarecandypod1 @jdowrites @KelbyLosackBRB. There will be NO MORE to say after you listen to this (paywalled of course). You better stop chelping and get out there and make something afterwards.
Inspired by my interview with David Mamet, I wrote about the weird tendency to throat-clear around "conservative" artists rather than just engage with the work.
People into Debates need to join People Into Cinema in the E.T. landfill.
“Debate” shouldn’t be taken seriously. It’s just entertainment. Shows like that demonstrate it more than anything that’s come before.
Always amazing to chat with @asukahomo, who is celebrating 5 years of his amazing podcast @imsopopularpod

As Glen from @Rarecandypod1 reminded me this week, we are the winners of the Talked to David Mamet Prize. We should probably bask in that a bit more. Always be podding.

Wonderful conversation with the boys about Literary Men. It’s a three-hour manifesto on blazing your own trail, focusing on improving with every work, and being proud of what you’ve done.

The Ern Malley of the 21st Century is revealed! @jceylon2
One of his (former) editors told me: "I’ve published too many white guys. I do ignore submissions because, if you know what it’s like in the publishing world, I receive tons of submissions, and they’re usually white guys, and it’s just not interesting." thefp.com/p/white-man-wh…
Forgot about the big revelation in this one: Mamet and Rupert Murdoch have lunch together and talk about novels???!
