Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 243: Emmet Casey (From The Depths Podcast)
Q: And why has it taken you so long to bring From The Depths back?
The return was delayed by a combination of travel, the need for a fresh approach after burnout, and a sense that the show could offer more by revisiting diverse topics and guests from a broader European scene, rather than simply rehashing prior formats.
Episode 195: Methodactor
Q: What was the process behind the Wasted Hours music video?
Edward discusses shooting in multiple car parks, using lo-fi camera work, and a narrative of being stalked by a version of himself, with the end implying the ongoing presence of anxiety and the impossibility of fully killing it.
Episode 195: Methodactor
Q: When is the EP being released and what are the listening party details?
The EP drops on September 12, with a listening party on September 10 at Egan's Bar, featuring the full playthrough, intimate performances, and free drinks from High Noon, followed by a band show in Dun Laoghaire in October.
Episode 195: Methodactor
Q: Why did you choose the name Methodactor for your project?
He explains that the name arose from his film work and the idea of inhabiting different roles and sounds, while wanting a distinct identity separate from his given name and the folk-influenced Irish scene.
Episode 195: Methodactor
Q: How did you get into music?
Edward describes starting from early percussion and piano/guitar, through tough teaching then supportive mentors, joining bands, and eventually moving into film scoring and producing, which led to the solo project that became Methodactor.
