Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

152 - You Don't Need Shoes Inside The Car (With Craig Phillips)
Q: How do you prepare to write such a long saga? Have you done a lot of mapping of the various like plot points you want to cover?
Phillips is an aggressive outliner who maps out chapters as a guideline, even though the story often diverges from the plan. He began writing after creating an RPG character and expanding the character's backstory.
152 - You Don't Need Shoes Inside The Car (With Craig Phillips)
Q: Which games are you partial to? If you had to, you don't have to pick like a favorite, unless you know you have a favorite, but I'm curious, kind of like, in which direction do you trend?
Phillips prefers games with little luck and substantial strategy. His favorite is Wabash Cannonball, a historically based train-route game where players auction shares in railroad companies and build routes toward Chicago.
147 - Small In Numbers, Mighty In Vibe (With Adam Voith)
Q: Can you summarize the book for listeners who haven't read it?
The book is structured as chapters that imitate cassette zines from Christian underground culture; it follows a character nicknamed the Christian Humper as he tours with Roadside Monument, exploring the fallout, business decisions, and personal conflicts within that ecosystem, blending truth with fiction and reflecting on the trap of using a culture to escape that culture.
149 - Wholesome Prison Blues (With Landon Ginnings)
Q: How did you end up joining Showbread, and what was that moment like for you?
Landon explains the succession plan in the band, how he moved into the role after JG quit, and the quick adaptation he had to perform musically, which helped him stay with the group during a pivotal transition.
130 - High Kick All The Way To The Grave (With Todd Fadel)
Q: How did you come to found or run venues like Meow Meow and X-Ray Cafe?
Todd explains that the driving force was creating spaces where people could be themselves without being pressed into a specific religious or promotional mold, focusing on venue-first philosophy and inclusivity.
