  • Kyle Eastwood.

    The host is lazy. Don’t let Kyle correct what you should clearly and easily know. Research, baby, put in the work before the interviews.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Sarah Wilson - Incandescence

Harben Kay - The World I Live In
Q: Can you give our listeners a little bit of an insight into the kind of style and what you were thinking when you wrote Blue Beetle?
