This week Kyle and Matthew are joined by longtime friend of the show Adam Crosse. Adam has been a radster since the early days and we're very excited to finally have him on the show and as a bonus we get to talk about rad manga and anime! Adam runs us through what the hell Jojo is and we explore in detail the first few stories so if you're somebody who worries about spoilers maybe hold out until you've watched the first 3 seasons of the book or manga. But our retelling can't possibly undermine just how weird and wonderful Jojo is. So grab a mesh t-shirt, get your stand ready, and strap in for a fun episode.
Weekly Rads: Kyle - Drawing / You Can Draw in 30 Days by Mark Kistler and Christopher Hart’s Humongous Book of Cartooning (books) Matthew - RTJ4 - Run the Jewels (album) Adam - skatoon network (YouTube Chanel)

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome back Tess Llanos from the Ongong Comicbook Discussion for a chat about women in the business of comic books. They highlight a few mainstream authors who have been able to break through in a big bad way and Kyle gives a nice list of amazing works from indie creators. Lot of titles get tossed around, if you're looking for something different to read, there is a pretty wild world of stuff in this episode that is, in fact, rad.

Ladies and gentlemen please strap in because on this episode we are going on a journey that spans the entire universe and more than 40,000 years! This week Kyle and Matthew are joined by comedian Dave Apkarian for a chat about the lore behind the popular tabletop game Warhammer 40k. Dave has gotten into miniature painting and Kyle has been fascinated by David's new hobby. After a few off mic discussion about how the Warhammer lore is pretty cool they decided an episode was in order. This is one of those episodes where Kyle and Matt hand Dave the keys and let him drive. And he sure takes us places. If you have no idea what Warhammer 40k is about (and we sure had no idea...) then this is a great primer. I'm sure it'll spark some corrections and conversations and that's half the fun of the ep. We want to eventually do separate episode on miniature painting and the game itself as well. So snuggle up and let Sad Dad Dave tell us all an epic tale from beyond the stars!
Weekly Rads: Kyle – The Jackass Movies (movies)
Burnside – Consistency! (lifestyle choice)
Dave – Goobertown Hobbies (youtube for model painting) and Luetin09 (youtube for Warhammer lore)

This week Kyle and Matthew are joined by J Gonzo for a chat about the wild world of 60's Garage rock. We explore what Garage rock is, why and how it has spread around the world, and what makes it the patient zero for so many subsequent genres of music. Becasue J Gonzo is on the show, you can also expect a pretty hefty amount of comic book talk. A super fun episode.

This week Kyle and Matt welcome back musician Eric Bryan for a chat about one of horrors most underrated directors Stuart Gordon. Sure, we all love Reanimator, and with good reason, it's awesome. But Gordon has an impressively consistent back catalogue. They explore how his years working in theater impacted his work in film. From the actors he worked with to the ways he pushed his budgets so his films always feel ambitious even when they were made for nothing, Stuart Gordon is a perfect example of how to do a lot with a little. Plus you get some riffs on basketball, the evolution of metal in the last 10 years, and dogs. A good old fashion rad and a little bit of Radtober in springtime. We hope you are all doing alright out there.

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome comedian Emily Walsh to chat about her recent dabblings in lego stop motion. During the big Q Emily has taken some old legos she and her boyfriend had in their apartment and began experimenting with stop motion animation. Her skills as a set designer helped her create some great sets and a book gave her all the start out info she needed to get started. This is a super fun episode and we hope it inspires you to go out and try something creative you've always dreamed of trying. Also, since this episode, Kyle has been trying his hand at lego animation as well, using the same book and app that Emily did. Spoiler, Emily is way better at it, but it has been a fun learning experience. Check out Emily's lego videos on her Instagram: @thefunnywalsh The book we keep talking about: https://www.amazon.com/Klutz-Lego-Make-Your-Movie/dp/1338137204/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=lego+stop+motion&qid=1589309806&sr=8-1

This week Kyle and Matthew are joined by comedian and musician Mike Valdes for a chat about ABC's Friday night programing block from the 90's, TGIF. This is a spiritual sequel to our Family Matters episode from years ago. We still find time to riff on Family Matters but we also explore the rest of TGIF's classics. Did Hanging with Mr. Cooper have one of the most underrated theme songs of all time? How many times did Boy Meets World completely change what kind of show it was? And did Salem the taking cat somehow topple the TGIF empire? All these questions and more will be explored.

This week Kyle and Matthew are joined by the one and only Lisa Curry. Lisa hasn't been on since our last boats episode because she spent most of last year traveling the world and doing stand up. But now she's back in LA and since we're all stuck inside we asked her to come on and catch up. Turns out before comedy Lisa dabble in home remodeling and since being quarantined, she been turning those skills towards her apartment. Lisa also recorded her first comedy album last year and her and Kyle discuss the process of finishing a record.
Also, after everything working smoothly for the last few eps, we had some tech issues. The recording cuts out and Burnside's place loses power a few times, but we stick the landing, plus, it's been a while since we've had an excuse to break out the segue music, so that's fun.
Weekly Rads: Lisa – Long Walks (activity)
Kyle – Star Trek Voyager (show)

This week Kyle and Matthew are joined by podcast rival Adam Murray, only this time he isn't the game master, he's playing the game with us! That's because This is Rad has gotten itself an official Game Master: Game Master Ryan. Ryan got in contact with us and inquired about writing tabletop campaigns for the show, we jumped at the chance and he put together the weird and wonderful adventure you're going to hear today. We look forward to more tabletop games in the future now that we have GM Ryan onboard. Plus, the group try a new game system, Monster of the Week (which, is, in fact, rad). So grab some snacks, dim the lights and strap in for a rousing adventure!

Kyle and Matthew are joined by their podcast friends from the great white north Richard Eden and Reid Vanier of the Doctor DC podcast. Together they celebrate the great perennial number two of the comic book industry, DC Comics. Now, we know what you're thinking “make mine Marvel or GTFO” but hear us out... What if DC was secretly the coolest comic book company and we all just never noticed? Turns out beyond Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman there is a dense and rich history of really cool (and often really WEIRD) characters and stories. If you've never been into DC or have wondered where to start, we give some fun ideas. If you're a longtime DC fan, we go deep on some fun stuff in the DC canon. We also for sure missed some stuff because the DC universe is vast, so tweet at us with YOUR favorite DC books or let us know if you end up checking out anything we recommend. A fun episode with some delightful Canadians!

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome Tara McKinney to the show. Kyle met Tara years ago when she started working as a camera operator on Talking Dead. Over the years they've become friends and it turns out Tara is a hell of a writer. This is her first podcast and while we never quite nailed down a topic we ended up on a pretty solid groove for a conversation. The title comes from the fact that if Kyle or Matt got too nerdy Tara would just space out and think about girls. She's really fun and this was a great last episode before rad goes into quarantine.
Concerning all the health issues, This Is Rad wants to you know we've set up plans so that unless like the whole grid goes down, we will still be bringing you episodes every week. What those look like is going to be a fun learning experience for all of us, but we just want you to know that for as long as every body is cooped up at home (or out in the world, if you're still out working) that we will be right here with you. Everybody stay safe and go wash your hands.
<3 Kyle, Matthew, and Laura

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome Khalid Salaam for a chat about the living dead and their place in pop culture. Khalid explains his parents unorthodox use of horror movies as a tool for punishing him as a child. But that which scares you as a kid often draws you in with fascination as you get older. Kyle and Khalid have worked together in various capacities over the years and despite the fact that they both work on a show about re-animated corpses, they explore a much broader scope of the zombie. We talk classic (and underrated) movies. The best (and not the best) video games. Turns out there are books about zombies. There is a lot of zombie media out there to choose from and they give you some picks for their favorites. But part of the appeal of the zombie narrative is the concept of “survival horror” and the boys explore this topic quite a bit as well. Plus, we got our fair share of hot riffs. Even if you are sick to death of zombie BS in pop culture this episode might remind you that there was once a time where the “Z” word did no elicit groans and eye rolls. Go back with us to a simpler time...

This week, Kyle and Matthew try something a little different. They welcome Anna Jean to the studio, a comedian whom neither Kyle or Matt had met before. She'd contacted Kyle about doing the show after a previous guest said doing This Is Rad is a fun time. A couple of FB messages later and here we are. After about five minutes you'd have no idea that we'd never met Anna before because everybody becomes best friends as we riff on video games, comedy, and her topic Cooking. Anna's mom tried to each her some classic Haitian dish when she was growing up and she wasn't interested, now she spends a ton of her time trying to learn to cook via youtube. It's a fun journey from a very funny comedian and a new member of the extended TIR family.

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew sit down for a KING SIZED inaugural episode of our Listener Questions series. Last ep of the month we will answer questions that you paid us a dollar (or five dollars) to ask. And we answer a whole heck of a lot of them (something like over fifty but less than sixy). This was super fun!!! You guys are great and we thank you for your questions and we thank the folks who didn't ask questions just for listening. Also, for real, this could have gone longer but Kyle had to leave to go see his brother's band play. But three and a half hours seems pretty reasonable. Please enjoy and if you have your own burning questions head over to our Patreon and holla at us!

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome their dear old friend, photographer Billy Small. Billy has worked with Kyle and Matt many times in the past and ALWAYS makes them laugh. After years of doing the podcast they were both very excited to have him on. What follows is some podcast silliness. The topic is Fly Fishing but you're probably not going to learn a lot about fly fishing, but if you enjoy listening to a bunch of people get silly, this ep is gonna be a good time.
Also, if you are on the Patreon, make sure to get our questions in for our first “Listener Questions” episode next week!

She recounts her globe trotting adventures, resorts designed entirely around SCUBA diving, and the terrors too much nitrogen can do to your body.

No! Don't run away! This is a super interesting episode I swear! For a few years Kyle has been trying to get our guest Ray Camacho to come on for this topic. Ray is in a super rad band called Sacer and studied theology in college. These two passions have lead to him having an impressive knowledge of faith based punk bands. Religious punk has been around almost as long as punk. The idea feels inherently contradictory and yet numerous subcultures and subgenres exist and thrive today. We chat about different faiths and the bands that have come out representing them. We also just have some interesting chats about the ideas of religion and the complicated relationship between religion and culture. Its a different kind of episode but I swear it's got lots of good bits and riffs.
Also, we want to once again take a second and thank everyone who has joined our Patreon. We are so overwhelmed by your incredible support!

As is tradition, a new numbered Star Wars film has been released, we have waited a month, and now we have gathered with our official Star Wars experts Klee Wiggins and Ed Greer for a rousing chat about the state of the Star Wars universe. This is the first time we've all gotten together since The Last Jedi so expect some chat about Solo. Plus, some Star Wars show on a Disney streaming service appears to be pretty good. This episode isn't so much a review as much as an excuse to really get in an dissect the evolution of the most popular film franchise of all time and what it means to be a franchise in 2020.

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew are joined by the Goods From The Woods (Rivers Langley, Carter Glasscock, and Sam Harter) for a look back at the 2010's. They put together some best of lists for movies, music, TV, video games, books, comics, and a whole lot of other stuff. The last ten years had a pretty profound effect on everyone on this episode and they explore where they were 10 years ago versus now. It's a long one but it's a heck of a ride. Oh, they also talk about Cats for a while up top.
Instead of a weekly rad this week we ask that you donate to the family of Matthew's friend Zach Reed who tragically lost his life in a motorcycle accident shortly after Christmas.

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome Brandii Grace for a chat about video games, getting involved in politics, and changing the world around you. Now before you go screaming into the night at the idea of an episode about politics, let us assure you there is plenty of talk about Star Trek, video games, and other fun stuff as well. But yes, we do talk about the political process and Brandii's story of getting into pubic service and running for office is inspiring. She brings the process to a human level and helps you see what running for office looks like for someone who is not a billionaire. If nothing else hopefully we inspire you to get out and vote next year.

This week, Kyle and Matthew welcome back the always wonderful Joe Kaye for a chat about a band that has taken their fair share of derision over the years, The Decembrists. Now, if you are scoffing, give the episode a listen. Joe does a FANTASTIC job explaining what makes the band one of his all time favorites. Kyle shares his journey from hating the band to being a fan of their work. It's neat sometimes when we get to do an episode where we give something a second chance. And even if you're not convinced by the end, we got some pretty good tangents too.

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome director and one third of The People's Collective Malik McCrea for a chat about making stuff. All parties involved agree that making stuff is pretty rad. Whatever your venture, the satisfaction of looking at something you made is intoxicating. But for every high high in making stuff there are also plenty of low lows. It comes with the territory. But one of the most important things you can remember is that when things are down, you can't give up because you never know what's going to happen next. There's also a lot of talk about movies and Malik shares is super cool origin story.

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome writer Sarah Landauer and artist Alston Novak to chat about one of the greatest films of modern cinema, 2015's Mad Max: Fury Road. Sarah and Alston are the creative team behind the digital comic “Glitch” which happens to be a story that takes place in a post apocalyptic desert wasteland. Turns out, Mad Max has had some influence on their work but not in some of the ways you might imagine. This episode is fun. Everybody nerds out pretty hard. We get into anime. We get into making comics. We get into eating lizards. It gets wild. Enjoy the ep and go support Sarah and Alston's series “Glitch” on the Macroverse app.

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome artist and comedian Andrea Guzzetta to the show for a conversation about Andrea's fascinating history with collecting bones. We learn some of the finer points of bone collecting and also learn some pretty cool art you can make out of bones and hair. We also explore the pros and cons of art school. Plus Kyle and Andrea bond over finding a creative voice that feels true even if it doesn't match the perception someone might have of you on first impression. Oh, and there is a lot of talk about life in the Midwest and how much it seems to confound Kyle's Southern California mind.
Fun Fact: Andrea painted Tom Goss' album cover and it's truly spectacular! It's in pre-order so go to apple music and add Tom Goss: Dead From Chicago and listen to the preview track while you take in Andrea amazing work.

This week Kyle and Matthew welcome Josh Shakespeare to the show for a conversation about what makes a rappers flow distinct. They compare the distinct stylistic flow different artists bring to their music and compare it to the way comedians tell jokes. I bet nobody saw that comparison coming! They also reminisce about the heyday of Meltdown. If you like comedy-centric episodes, this one is your jam.

This week on the show the boys welcome Alexis Filth to chat about rock and roll provocateur Marilyn Manson. In a fun twist of fate we learn that while all three enjoy his music, none of them discovered him when they were in his traditional teen demographic. How do you learn to appreciate the AntiChrist Superstar as an adult? Listen and find out. Plus they explore Manson's place in the 90's/00's musical landscape, the ways he has evolved over the years, and some of the interesting side projects he's worked on over the years. So dust off your old Hot Topic shirts and come along on another Radtober adventure!

For week two of Radtober 2019 we are joined by Adam Murray for a nearly 4 hour chat about one of the greatest living directors, the one and only Guillermo del Toro! We go movie by movie and explore what makes Guillermo del Toro such a unique film maker. Are you a big fan? Then come hang out with some fellow fans and nerd out. New to del Toro? Consider this a perfect primer! Listen and if one of the movies sounds interesting go check it out. We go from his childhood in Mexico all the way through to speculating about what he might do next. Is it long? Yes. Is it awesome? Also yes. So sit down, relax, and let us do our best Dan Carlin impression as we take you on an epic journey into the dark fantasy worlds of Guillermo del Toro.

This week Kyle and Mathew welcome Kyle's longtime friend, poet Crystal Sloan. Kyle and Crystal used to work at the same school back in the day and have collaborated on many projects in the past. In the last few years Crystal has come into her own as a writer and a poet and been publishing books and traveling around doing speaking gigs with her poetry. She also knows how to hula hoop with a flaming hula hoop. Can Robert Frost do that? I didn't think so. If you dig deep talks about creative process this episode has got you covered. If you like King Crimson, that also comes up a bit. There's fun for everyone!

Today on the show Kyle and Matthew welcome Lyndon Tucker to chat about one of the great action movies of the 90's Kathryn Bigelow's Point Break. Kyle and Lyndon love this movie and Matthew just saw it for the first time hours before we recorded the episode. He was less in love. But the three have a fun and in depth conversation about the film nonetheless. They go deep breaking down each character and try to understand the strange alchemy that the movie has that makes it work. They also discuss Kathryn Bigelow and how she is one of the best living American directors. Oh, and there are some pretty solid tangents. If you've never seen the film or if you've seen it a million times, this ep is a fun celebration of a modern classic.

This week on the show we bring you another off the beaten path episode. Sometimes nobody is free Labor Day weekend to do an episode. It happens. But if you're smart, you have a conversation you had with Tom Goss while in Chicago to fall back on. Kyle and Tom sat late at night in Kyle's hotel room and ate chips and talked about comedy. If you're a stand up nerd there is a chance you might dig this episode cause Kyle and Tom explain their processes for putting together their albums. This was originally gonna be part of a bigger collection of pieces from Chicago but scheduling got kinda wacky. Things seem to be settling back into a bit more normalcy now so we should be back to some more regular episodes soon. In the meantime, please enjoy this very raw but very fun chat with Kyle and Tom!
Trigger Warning: Tom eats some chips.

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew welcome comedian Rachel Wolfson for a chat about cannabis. Talking cannabis is tough cause you don't wanna fall into a bunch of lame stoner cliches. Luckily Rachel makes that easy. Join the trio for a fascinating conversation about the shifting views of cannabis in modern American culture. Plus, we get pretty existential about being the generation that became adults in the wake of 9/11. Yeah, this episode gets deep. Think of it less as a giggly stoner riff sense and more like one of those good deep conversations you have with somebody when you are sitting around sharing a joint. It'll all make sense when you listen. Plus, a nice long intro where Kyle and Burnside catch up. Warning: consumption of this episode may impair your ability to think things aren't rad.
Weekly Rads:

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew welcome one of Kyle's oldest friends in comedy Josh Meyrowitz. If you are a fan of Roast Battle you are likely familiar with the image of Josh shirtless getting the audience to chant “Battle” on the show. Kyle and Josh chat about their early open mic days and their shared adventures in crippling anxiety. They also talk about Martial Arts movies. Josh is a fan of all things nerdy and we still can't believe we haven't done this as an episode yet. (Honestly, we're still only like 75% sure we haven't done it.) But regardless, this is one of those topics that never gets old and truly we only scratch the surface in two hours so I guess it gives us an excuse to do more episodes on the topic!

And now for something slightly different. This week, Kyle is sick, two episodes got rescheduled, and we had 24 hours to get an episode recorded and posted. But at This Is Rad, we're never gonna leave you high and dry. So Kyle and Burnside sat down in Kyle's backyard and started talking about video games. They also talk about future stuff they wanna do on the podcast. If you are into any of the stuff we're thinking of doing please hit us up because we wanna keep bringing you guys new and interesting stuff because as long as you folks keep listening we're gonna work hard to bring you a quality podcast. Now, I know what you're thinking... “But how did this episode turn out to be over 2 hours long if it's just Kyle and Matt hanging out.” Oh boy, about halfway through this episode things get exciting. Kyle's Mom has a pretty crazy story about the Manson Family. And that leads to stories about dune buggies, boats, parties in the 70's, and a visit to the CIA. Seriously, this one takes some turns and we hope that you enjoy it!

This episode is a veritable smorgasbord of music nerdery and we hope you enjoy. Even for as long as we talked we could still do another ten episodes like this so please hit us up with your favorite 90's jams and maybe we can add them to the list for the next one. But for now, please enjoy this super fun episode. Fun bonus note: We recorded this episode in late just before starting Summer of Rad episodes.

We wrap up another Summer of Rad by sitting down with Rivers Langley for our annual backyard cook out. This year Rivers brought along some of his friends (Carter Glascock, Sam Harter, and Courtney Peterson) from the Goods From The Woods universe to join us in the consuming of several pounds of fried seafood. Rivers shares his recipes for a delicious fish fry and everyone eats so much they go a little insane. If you've ever wished more podcasts had extended riffs about Chedder Bay biscuits, your prayers have been answered. Plus, in a TIR first, the weekly rads are at the END of the episode. Chaos Reigns! This has been a lovely Summer of Rad and on behalf of everyone at TIR, we'd like to thank you for spending your summer with us.
So sit back, grab a pile of snacks, and hang out with us as we get summertime silly.

This week Kyle, Matthew, and Laura welcome back Joe Kaye for a feature length commentary on the 90's animated summer classic A Goofy Movie. Thrill as every breaks down which anthropomorphized animal character was their sexual awakening. Plus, Powerlines might be the most underrated artist of the 90's. We also talk about the waking nightmare that is the new trailer for Cats. And you better believe Kyle has some strong opinions about Disney Afternoon. A fun cinematic journey into the summer of rad. As a bonus, on the intro Kyle is joined by Jen Saunderson for some extra fun riffing. They imply they might be starting a new podcast so stand by for more info on that in the future (and you thought there wouldn't be any more teases for new stuff after Comic Con!).
Note: If you're trying to watch this episode as an actually commentary, go ahead and pause the movie during the Mack Weldon ad. It's not compensated for in the time code. But you do get Sack Weldon and Blandyman talking! This episode is a star studded affair!
Weekly Rads:
Kyle – The Ice Cream Man (comic)
Jen – A Netflix rabbit hole of late 90's / early 00's lady movies like Under The Tuscan Sun, How to Make an American Quilt, and Devine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood (movies)

The summer of rad gets foodie as Kyle prepares a lovely flight of popsicles for a panel of discerning palettes. Kyle and Matthew are joined by Robert Ahn, Taylor VH, and Nancy Clark for a discussion of what constitutes a popsicle versus and ice cream novelty, cartooned themed snacks, and the mysterious allure of the ice cream man. We put together a good solid half hour of chat before we start eating so if you are grossed out by people eating on mic, there is a well designated jumping off point. That said, if you can take a little bit of audible slurping (we tried to eat away from mic as much as possible, we're not monster) then you get some good riffing.
Technical Note: We were getting some funky buzzes from the aging power cable we were using. We're working on upgrading and its pretty quiet and only happens a few times but figured we'd let you know that we know.

During last year's Summer of Rad we had Brandie Posey, Keith Carey, and Kasey Clark come over to Kyle's backyard so that everybody could pitch their dream music festival. It was a lot of fun and we decided that we should do something similar next year. Then Brandie proposed a fantasy cruise. We set a date and Keith set the wrong date and couldn't make it. Also, Laura was sick. But the REST of the crew returned to bring you a follow up to last years episode. Who is creating a fantasy cruise as an alibi for murder at sea? Are pirate ghosts something you'd want on your cruise? Also, the Los Angeles Clippers look like they have a pretty good season ahead of them. We had a lot of fun and we'd love to know what YOUR fantasy cruise would be so tweet at us @thisisradpod with your pitch!
Weekly Rads:
Kyle – Midsommar (movie)
Kasey – Kawhi Leonard and Paul George joining the LA Clippers (an event that gives Kasey hope for the future)

Welcome to Summer of Rad 2019! For our first summer episode Kyle sat down with one of his favorite people in the world Julia Prescott, and they talk about the songs that make them think of summer. Prepare for some sweet sweet holding phones up to the microphone action. Plus they get into a pretty deep convo about dealing with depression. So if you've got the summertime blues this episode might help. (Or not, hey I'm just a one podcast, there's only so much I can do.) Plus, since Matt and Laura were sick for the episode we have nice long intro for ya. So break out the blank cassette tapes and put together your own personal playlist and we dive into the world of Summah Jamz.

Hey everybody, this week's episode is a doozy! Kyle and Matthew welcome director of photography and adventure punk Jan Michael Losada for a conversation about One Wheels, a crazy ass contraption that you've likely never heard of and Jan has ridden for thousands of miles. Plus, there are some solid tangents about cinematography, VR, and a whole litany of other stuff. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuut... before that high quality episode we had some issues. Ol' producer Kyle had a bit of a goof setting up the recorder and as a result the guest mic was not active for: The Intro! The Ad for Mack Weldon! (go to www.mackweldon.comand use the promo code RAD to get 20% off your first order!) And last but not least, the first 45 minutes of an episode! We started over and still gave you an hour and forty five minute episode where we fixed stuff. For those who are completest, we'll put the lost episode audio at the end (after the closing music) cause there is some fun stuff if you can get past the wonky audio. We include all of it to show, hey, everybody makes mistakes. So kick back, relax, and enjoy!
Weekly Rads: Laura - Good Omens (which she is pretty sure she hasn't said before...) (show)
Kyle – Mr. Iglesias (show)
Matthew – the ill informed Christian boycott of Good Omens where they didn't know which streaming service it was on and mistakenly said “Don't watch it on Netflix” which is funny because it's on Amazon Prime. (thing that happened) Check out Laura's new designs on TeePublic!!!

This week on the show, Kyle and Matthew (along with special guest co-host Gabriella Contreras) are joined by Rick West, the creative director for Midsummer Scream, a fantastic halloween and horror convention August 3-4 in Long Beach, CA. Kyle and Gabriella both adore the con and after Gabriella met Rick at a spooky bar, she connected Kyle so that they could make this episode happen. Guys, turns out Rick, Kyle, and Gabriella can talk about haunts and theme parks... a lot. Rick also created Theme Park Adventure, a newsletter turned website that ran from 1994 to 2018 and was one of the earliest youtube channels to post haunt walkthrough videos. For real guys, this is a fun episode. If you want to hear Kyle gasp and squeal and truly nerdgasm, you have found your episode. It's a little Radtober in the summer time. Something a little different but a lot of fun!

This week on the show Kyle and Burnside are joined by long time friend of the show John Ungaro. It's been forever since John has been on the show and we have plenty to talk about. He got there early and so we had him sit in on the intro so this episode just goes straight through. We talk about the films of indie film icon Jim Jarmusch. Kyle and John both cite Jarmusch as a big influence on their creative work and their teenage interest in independent cinema. They explore the themes and motifs that run through his movies. They also talk about how New York City looks on film. They also get real rambley for a while. If you enjoy tangent episodes, we've got plenty for you this ep. They also speculate about his latest film The Dead Don't Die and how wild it is that thirty years into a career, Jarmusch is making a commercially released zombie movie. I don't think any of us saw that coming. Enjoy!
Weekly Rads:
Kyle – The Violet Wanderers (podcast) and Protoplanets (band)

This week on the show Kyle and Matt are joined by the always delightful Ron Swallow to chat about the long running book series The Dresden Files. Fun fact: Kyle and Matt were both unaware this episode was going to be about books. But after some helpful explanation from Ron they get sucked into the description of this long running dark fantasy series. Ron has had a life long love affair with fantasy fiction and Kyle uses this episode as an opportunity to better understand a genre he is woefully under read on. They get into what it takes to make a good ongoing series. Plus, a lot of talk about vampires, and that's always a good time. So whether your a long running fan of the series or if you also had no idea what constitutes a Dresden File, there's something fun for everyone.

This week on the show, Kyle and Matthew welcome comedian and radio DJ Jake Dill. Jake is one of Kyle's longest running friends in comedy and this episode is the first time Kyle has ever heard him talk about his love of Magic: The Gathering. He explains his experiences in the world of Magic, along with his story of how he got into the game and what it is about the game that keeps him coming back. Laura pops in to share her experiences and her and Jake throw down as Matt and Kyle politely have no idea what is happening. This one is super fun and feels like a real celebration of the long running collectable card game. So put your deck together and prepare for a grand ride through the world of one of the most popular trading card games.

Okay... so hear us out. You're thinking to yourself, “hmm, that title sounds familiar but I'm not sure from where...” Let's get a couple of things straight. Yes, that is the title of domestic terrorist Ted Kaczynski's manifesto. No, this is not an episode supporting the violent actions of anyone. But, This Is Rad, what is this episode then? When we ask guests what they want to talk about, it's often something like “I really love jackets” and we talk about jackets (hmm... we should do a jacket episode when it starts getting chilly again...) In this case, Kyle's longtime friend Jason Van Glass proposed an interesting experiment for the show. Believe it or not, both Kyle and Matthew had their worries going into this episode. What resulted what a great and thought provoking episode about ideology, technological advancement, human societal structures, anarchism, and about a million other high concept ideas. After so much worry this turned out to be one of the most interesting episodes we have done in a while. If you dug the Invisibles episodes, this episode definitely pairs nicely with that one. Thanks to Jason for throwing us a fascinating curve ball and a great episode!

WARNING: This episode deals with some dark subject matter due in part to the nature of the artist we are discussing. Also, darkness is something that just kinda happens when you get Kyle, Keith, and Nicole together. So if you're not feeling up to it, we still love you and we'll see you next week. <3
Today Kyle and Matthew are joined by podcast favorites Nicole Becannon and Keith Carey for a discussion of Eminem. They take a look at his long and storied career and use it as a way to look at how the music industry as a whole has evolved over the last twenty years. Yeah, that's right, twenty years. You feel that? That's the terrifying feeling of age my friend. But don't think about that. Think about bleached hair and baggy jeans. And songs about murder fantasies. And also songs about feeling bad about yourself. Plus there are some pretty wild tangents. This one is a lot of fun. Please enjoy whole sections of episode where we all just end up laughing for extended periods. Not for the faint of heart but if you're feeling bold, come get silly with us.

It took two episodes and nearly 7 hours of podcast but we have concluded our magnum opus breaking down Grant Morrison's “The Invisibles.” Brent Schmidt returns with even more notes and we dive into volumes 2 and 3 of this epic story of magick and the nature of reality. After explaining Chaos Magick and the basic players we are now ready to dig deep into the story and our theories behind the story. Brent has truly outdone himself again as we complete what we are dubbing the “Brent Trilogy” along with our Animorphs and Sekret Machines episodes.

This week on the show Matthew and Kyle welcome Kim and David Harvey for a chat about HBO's fantasy epic Game of Thrones. In the weeks before the show goes into it's final season we take it upon ourselves to discuss two key aspects of the show: 1.) It RULES and 2.) It should never have worked as a show. Kim and David are pretty hardcore fantasy nerds. We take some time to break down just how many decorative swords they have in their home. Kyle and Kim have found that Game of Thrones finds this weird middle ground for someone who doesn't normally like fantasy like Kyle and somebody who LOVES it like Kim. It's a fun talk and we will likely do some kind of fun bonus episode follow up after this season ends so we can all see how we feel. But for now, please enjoy this episode and tweet at us and let us know how excited you are about the final season!

This week Kyle and Matthew are joined by fan favorite Brent Schmidt. You guys know when Brent comes on the show it's something special and he does not disappoint this time. I know there is a segment of our listeners who say “I just wish they'd talk more about chaos magick!” Well good news! This is the episode you've been waiting for. The boys break down Grand Morrison's comic book magnum opus The Invisibles. This is an episode Kyle and Brent have been prepping for a while and they are THRILLED to finally bring it to you. But in the grand tradition of the show we run long. But we run so long that we're actually going to do a follow up episode in a few weeks. For now enjoy our break down of chaos magick, the origins of the series, and our thoughts on the first volume. This episode was super fun, come get weird with us.

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew are joined the the hilarious and delightful Jessie Johnson to chat about Target. Yeah, it's a big box store and big corporations are the devil but work with us here, there's some good riffs and a lot of shared experiences about the weirdness of consistency walking through a Target. There is a lot a lot of talk about Arizona, where Jessie grew up and got her start in comedy. There is also talk about the fun and free games you and your friends make when you are all broke. Plus on the intro there is kind of an impromptu state of the union for the video game industry and Matthew has some interesting observations. Overall, fun times with fun people. Enjoy!

Rad on, Rad off. This week on the show, Kyle, Matthew, and Laura sit down with the brilliant Kate Gaffney to talk about her favorite movie of all time The Karate Kid. This is the first time we've chatted with Kate on land, but you might remember her from last summer's boat episode. The Karate Kid is kinda a perfect storm for this group. The movie combines fun 80's montages, life lessons, dating, family dynamics, and heaping helpings of sweet sweet shots of the San Fernando Valley in the 1980's. They talk about how well cast the movie is and in general how the movie is better and more emotional than it has any right to be. And yeah, they talk about the sequels and re-makes too. Fun times. Just remember this everybody: You're the best around and nothing's ever gonna keep you down.

We have returned as the prophecy has foretold. Kyle and Matthew welcome back Anna Valenzuela and Jenny Chalikian for the third installment of their ongoing retrospective of the Battlestar Galactica reboot. This time they take a look at season two and in the process learn that a lot of stuff they thought was from season two is actually season three and instead season two is full of crazy stuff they almost forgot. This gets intense. Kyle and Anna excitedly yell a lot. We praise Grace Park for playing two charters who look exactly and yet feel entirely different from one another. We breakdown why the Chief is maybe the most complex character. We continue our campaign to elect Laura Roslin present of everything forever. Plus, after so much talk, it has finally arrived: FAT APOLLO enters the series!

Pizza in the morning. Pizza in the evening. Pizza at supper time. When pizza is the subject of your podcast, you can have pizza anytime. Did I do that for the last pizza episode? I was gonna check but then I didn't and now here we are. This week on the show Kyle and Matthew welcome writer/comedian Matt Dwyer to the show. Besides being one of the darkest and funniest writers Kyle knows he's also become an excellent pizza chef in the last few years. Matt hails from Chicago and after our amazing episode with Steve Simone about proper New York pizza we felt it was only fair to get the second city's view on making a proper pizza. We get into some intresting territory about the lesser known approaches to pizza and Kyle learns to gain an appreciation for proper Chicago style deep dish pizza. If you are like him and have your doubts this is worth a listen. This is probably not a good episode to listen to while hungry cause it's mostly us just talking about how delicious food is. We also get into some great tangents about Tom Waits, Jerry Stahl, and the evils of corporate culture. Yeah, on the pizza episode.
Note: We tried an experiment with the way we opened the episode. We started and then Kyle realized that we could do the intro and the episode as one track (less editing!). So if you seem real confused, we were just trying something for the sake of trying it, fear not, we'll be back to normal format next week. Order shall be preserved and there will again be peace and freedom in the galaxy....

This week Kyle and Matthew are joined by returning guest Jozalyn Sharp. Last time Jozalyn came on and talked about dogs. Cute fuzzy wuzzy widdle doggies with their little wagity tales and flopity ears. So naturally, this time, we are talking about the ultra violent mid-2000's horror franchise Saw. Joz is a massive fan of the franchise and Kyle and Burnside are no slouches either. Joz is one of our favorite guests and she does not disappoint. The gang come to the defense of the franchise and point out that the early films have much more in common with a Law and Order-style police procedural than the “torture porn” moniker the franchise is often saddled with. They break down just what makes the franchise fun and exciting and they do their best to parse through the insane continuity of the series. They talk about their favorite Jigsaw puzzles and ruminate on how they'd fair if they found themselves playing one of Jigsaw's games. It's a fun episode and as always Joz is one of the funniest and filthiest comedians around so things get silly despite the buckets of blood and viscera.

Okay, after almost six years of podcasting every week, it finally happened... We got so deep into a conversation that the idea originally conceived (comics) got a little lost in the shuffle. Don't get me wrong, we DO talk about comics, for like a few minutes... and then... well, it's a really fun episode! Our guest Pablo Escobosa is a very sharp, funny, and talented dude and you won't walk away disappointed. If you like riffs, consider this an all riffs episode. If you like topics, next week's episode we are back to our regularly scheduled format. For this week, find a comfy spot on the couch and come hang out with Kyle, Matthew, and Pablo as they go on a journey.

If you'd told us that there would be a Real Housewives episode of This Is Rad, when we started This Is Rad, we'd have worried you'd come from the darkest timeline. And hey, maybe you did, we don't know. But this episode is, in fact, rad. That is thanks, in no small part, to our guest, the brilliant and hilarious Annie Lockwood. Annie is in LA visiting from the ATL and sat down with Kyle and Matt to talk about her love of the many flavors of Real Housewives. Annie was Kyle's opener for his album taping back in December. They met may years ago at a mic in Atlanta and Kyle has been a fan ever since. Believe it or not, this episode has some insane tangents. Burnside turns the show into an episode of Shark Tank for a while. Tweet at us if you would buy Matt's product. Lot of talk about butts in this one. Like... a lot. Enjoy!

Plus, more zoo talk than you were probably expecting. Also, they chat about exploring darkness in comedy, the wonders of cognitive behavioral therapy and Jams bands.

Man, sometimes we have good timing. This week Kyle and Mathew chat with Robert Ahn about his love for director Yorgos Lanthimos. And wouldn't you know it, Mr. Lanthimos just got nominated for Best Director for his fantastic new film The Favorite. Kyle and Robert break down what makes Lanthimos' work so compelling and they hope that like Burnside, by the end of this episode you'll give him movies a try. His mix of stylized acting and dark humor is super distinct and there's not better time to go check his stuff out so you can seem worldly and hip when your friends ask if you've ever heard of him. Plus, we go on a couple insane tangents. Burnside get's real silly. He's a fun guy.

This week Kyle takes a solo trip to long beach to catch up with his former roommate and dear friend Eric Bryan for a chat about the most underrated of musical instruments, the bass. Eric is a fantastic bass player who has hopped around numerous metal bands over the years. These days he plays with the excellent thrash band Anger As Art (who just released a new live album “Fast as F*ck”). Kyle talks about his long history of relationships with bass players, from his father, to some of his best friends, and past girlfriends. He also talks about how he has started to play more bass than guitar in recent years. They talk about what makes a good bass player and what bass brings to a band. They break down some of rock and metal's bass luminaries and how their played elevated their respective groups. They also chat about the philosophy of bass playing. There's probably more talk about the art of bass here than you are likely to find anywhere. (But if you find any sweet bass podcasts, be sure to let us know!) They also go on some pretty nerdy music tangents. If you're a fan of metal or sweet sweet low end, this episode is a good time.

And handsome boys. And at one point it spins off into a chat just about cute boys in general. Plus we talk about demons. And how great monster of the week shows are. Plus, we entertain the idea of an all CW universe cross over event and how insane that might be. Lacretia has an encyclopedic knowledge of pop culture stuff that rivals or maybe even surpasses Kyle. So kick back, relax and watch the references fly!

They discuss how Nickelodeon's deep cable spin off channels changed how a whole generation views Canadian teen life. And they talk about Drake. But also, Katie plays a large part in Kyle's becoming a stand up and you get to hear some stories of high school drama club Kyle. And who doesn't want that?

Producer Note: At the end of the ep, Adam promotes a video of his that will be featured on Vimeo, this ep was originally gonna come out in January but we moved it up, so it won't be out til December 27th. But once it is out, go check the heck out of it.

This week Kyle and Matthew have comedian and father Dave Apkarian on the podcast to talk about the hardest job you'll ever love, being a parent. In a 48 hour period Kyle had two conversations with comics about being parents and wanted to do them as one super episode about parenting, but due to scheduling issues we are splitting this bad boy into two parts. In this episode we talk about Dads. What is it like being a dad? What is it like having a dad? What makes a good dad? What are some of the classic types of Dads? Also, how terrifying is it to take care of a living human? Dave answers these questions and more and you better believe we make some sweet sweet dad jokes. Dave is a delightful and sweet man and we have a ton of fun. Look for part 2 coming sometime in January. And if you just can't get enough Dad talk, check out Sad Dad, Dave's podcast.

This week on the show, Kyle, Matthew, and Laura are joined by a TON of people for a roundtable discussion of one of the most popular alternative rock bands of the 90's and 00's Green Day. Keith Carey and Nicole Becannon lead the discussion and share their experiences with the band and they each debate what they think are the definitive Green Day songs and albums. The band has been around so long that its interesting to see the different points of entry for different fans and how that colors their vision of the band. But it wouldn't be This Is Rad if there wasn't distractions and this time we have a murders row of distractors: Tom Goss, Tanya Salzer, Taylor Vracin-Harrell, and Jordan Leigh Williams all ready to help provide tangents and some hot hot riffs. Bonus for those who stick around to the end, there just might be a little Tom Lightning Round to close out the show. This one is a lot of fun!

This week Kyle is solo having a very intimate chat with Joe Dosch about Black Metal. They talk about the strangely universal nature of this extreme music genre. Joe chronicles his early days of discovering metal and does a pretty fantastic job explaining the appeal of extreme music. They talk about what makes a good black metal band and they explore some of the darker and more unseemly sides of the genre as well. Good lucky trying to spell most of the band names they bring up this episode, but honestly its a pretty solid primer for the uninitiated into the world of black metal. And hey, we even stay on topic for about the first hour and change. The last forty minutes Kyle and Joe totally go off topic and end up talking about life, art, politics, and in general are two friends catching up and chatting. If you don't wanna hear two guys chatting, if you bail about an hour and ten in, you should get pretty much your fill of metal. Also, this was recorded in early June and then go lost in the cracks for a few months. We are glad we are finally able to present it to you and sorry to Joe for it taking so gosh darn long.

This Is Rad returns to a tradition that we totally forgot to do last year! Kyle, Matthew, and Laura sat down a few days before Thanksgiving to chat and catch up. Everybody has been pretty brutally busy and we decided it would be fun to talk about things we are thankful for and in general just hang out as the Rad Fam. We talk about being tired a lot. And sleeping on planes. And Pokemon. And Kyle tells a few stories that he has FOR SURE told on the podcast before. But it's fun. If you ever want to know what it sounds like for the 10 minutes before we start recording this is a pretty close approximation. But it's not all gloomy sleepy, there are some fun riffs and bits and some chat about Thanksgiving food. Also a debate about what constitutes a Turkey's butt. All three of us would like to take a moment to truly and earnestly thank everyone that listens to the show. As 2018 comes into the home stretch we've really taken stock of how amazing our community of listeners are. Without you were would be three weirdos doing voices in a living room. But thanks to you, we are three weirdos doing voices in a living room who have the sweetest, smartest, and kindest fans a podcast could ask for (take THAT other podcasts!). Thank you for listening and have a festive and safe Thanksgiving!

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew welcome Rebekah and David McKendry to discuss the madcap world of exploitation cinema. Rebekah and Dave are incredible sources on the topic and in this episode they barely even scratch the surface. Folks, we got ourselves another going series here! But this episode has some FANTASTIC info if you have ever been interested in the topic. Go beyond the scratchy film filter of iMovie and dig into what defines an exploitation film. Learn that exploitation goes all the way back to the earliest days of motion pictures. They explore early “educational” films that featured dubious information about taboo subjects, plus the group analyzes why everybody at nudist camps plays so much volleyball. This episode is a lot of fun if you love the underbelly of the film world.
Check out Rebekah and Dave's upcoming holiday horror film All the Creatures Were Stirring which is out on December 4thon VOD and perfect for your holiday movie list!

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew welcome Jess McNabb not only to This Is Rad but to the United States. Kyle befriended Jess while up in Canada for the Yukon Comedy Festival earlier this year. Jess is a brilliant stage tech up in the great white north and over the course of the festival we learned that the trio all share a passion for snack food. While on her trip to LA, Jess has been exploring the world of American snack food and comparing it to her homeland. Canada knows a thing or two about snacks and we compare notes to see the pros and cons between our two nations. It's like a fun cultural exchange program where everybody eats on mic! Plus, learn that Canada's version of Corn Pops are really different and see how much it disturbs Kyle. This is as SUPER fun episode and a nice break after all the mayhem of Radtober.
PS- Next week we will have an update with into about Kyle's album rehearsal live stream!

This week Radtober rages on as Kyle and Matthew welcome author and filmmaker Allison Star Locke Nelson to the show to discuss one of the most influential authors in American horror literature, Shirley Jackson. And the gang couldn't have timed it better as Netflix has just released a new adaptation of Jackson's masterpiece The Haunting of Hill House. Both Kyle and Allison are big fans of Ms. Jackson's prose and they get into some nitty gritty about her backstory, writing process, and the elements that make Hill House in particular such an incredible book. They compare the adaptations and talk about what works and what doesn't in the various versions. They also discuss her other work including her short stories like The Lottery. They also go on some pretty sweet tangents about creative process, horror films, and Flimstruck.

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew are joined by three members of Kyle's horror trivia team The Frogurt Is Also Cursed. Brian Wiley, Amy Drolet, and Jacob Davidson help our boys explore the gloriously insane world of Italian Horror. They discuss the dream logic and surrealism of Italian Horror that make it unique. They talk about the influential directors who helped shape the genre and their impact on the larger horror landscape. And of course, they talk about all the gory kills, insane moments, and latent catholic imagery you can shake a stick at. Things get pretty nerdy this episode and it is a lot of fun.

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew continue Radtober with the hilarious Jen Saunderson. They chat about the horror anthology movie. The scary short story is maybe horror's purest form and the anthology film has created fun and spooky way to pack a bunch of short stories into one movie. But it wouldn't be rad without some sweet sweet riffs and Jen is truly a riff machine. By the end of this episode you will know to beware the Blandyman. Plus, the recorder falls over at one point and you get to hear Kyle make a pretty goofy sound. We all touch on some of our favorite horror anthologies but man, there sure are a lot of them so please tweet at us and let us know some of your favorites!

Radtober 2018 begins!!! This week we kick off our month long block of spooky themed episodes with a loving tribute to Kyle's favorite action horror franchise, The Purge!!! And joining Kyle and Matthew on this adventure into the dark heart of future America is the brilliant and hilarious comedian and podcaster Caitlin Cutt (aka Caitlin Lemaire, cause sometimes Kyle forgets that people have stage names...). Caitlin pitched this episode idea months ago and they held it over as their kick off episode for Radtober 2018 and boy is it a doozy. They go film by film exploring the highs and lows of the franchise. They talk about what makes a good Purge movie and they touch on what each of them would do with their own Purge story. Plus, if you want to hear people reference a bunch of very specific Orange county comedy stuff, that also happens. But this might be one of the most focused and intense explorations the gang have done in a minute and if you haven't dived into the world of The Purge, this is a pretty fantastic primer. So grab some fun sized candy, put on a neon glow in the dark skull mask, and prepare for some lawless good times.

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew are joined by comedian Eric Bell to discuss the Nintendo 64. Thrill as three dudes of a very specific age wax poetic about their formative years spent with the system. Yeah,we talk about Golden Eye. Yeah, we talk about Smash Bros. This episode is fun because everybody had a different set of games that defined the system for them. They chat about the glory days of local multiplayer. Kyle recounts a story of trying to play Golden Eye after years of playing twin stick shooters. They all discuss that magical summer Smash Bros came out where it felt like you couldn't go anywhere without getting sucked into play. But they also bring up some deep cuts. This is one of those great episodes where we didn't even notice we'd done two hours and felt like we could have done even more. If you're feeling nostalgic for the early days of 3D gaming, strap in. And while you're at it, DO A BARREL ROLL!
Weekly Rads:
Matthew: The Playstation Mini (video game thing)
Kyle: Universal Halloween Horror Nights (event)

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew took a field trip to Disgraceland, the home of their sister podcast The Goods From The Woods, to chat with Rivers Langley, along with River's Mom Gail Langley and first time guest Rosalie Atkinson about one of the great American rock bands The Allman Brothers Band. Kyle and Rivers both share their fandom for the band and Matt talks about his discovery of the band through Rock Band. But Rosalie... Rosalie is on a whole other level. Over the past few years Rosalie has been working on a project about the band that included a pretty incredible road trip/pilgrimage with her Mom to significant locations in the bands history. Along the way she's talked to a ton of folks who worked with the group and her knowledge on the subject is pretty nuts. This is some good old fashion music nerdery. Whether you are a longtime fan or totally unfamiliar with their music, this is a fantastic primer and celebration of the band, their music, and their somewhat tragic history. So kick back, eat a peach, and enjoy!
Weekly Rads:
Matthew: Fleabag (amazon show)
Laura: Sorry To Bother You (movie)
Kyle: Radland Records (Kyle is starting a small comedy record label!)

Also: Between now and December, if you would like to schedule a time for Kyle to run his hour with you one on one or with a small group (or if you live in the southwestern United States and have somewhere you'd like him to perform, or if you wanna watch him do it via skype) please contact us atthisisradpodcast@gmail.combecause seriously he's pretty much down for anything as he tries to finalize his new album.

This week on the show Kyle and Matthew chat with their friend and fellow former NerdMelt staffer, Jack Kelly. Together, they break down the most popular broadway musical of the last decade. They are reverent, focused, and absolutely do not spin off on any weird tangents whatsoever... Man, you should see your face right now. This week on the show, Kyle, Matthew, and Jack Kelly breakdown the unstoppable cultural juggernaut that is Hamilton. They discuss their experiences with the play and how it has emotionally effected them. They break down the brilliance of Lin-Manuel Miranda and the fine art of balancing historical accuracy with dramatic storytelling. They get into how the play reflects the larger idea of American identity and how that seems to have manifested into a play that speaks to and has effected so many people in so many ways. Also, they talk about fan fiction. Erotic fan fiction. Over the last few years Jack created a massive alternate universe fan fiction using the characters from this popular play. These stories have created some internet drama. They are also pretty awesome. This episode does a pretty great job illustrating how and why Jack is one of Kyle and Matthew's favorite people and the trio have a fantastic time using the backdrop of this awesome play to get really, really weird. This was a personal favorite episode for all parties involved and before you even ask, yes, we will be doing a follow up with more stories about fan fiction in the future. There is a lot of really fantastic writing out there about the significance of Hamilton as a piece of art. There is also this podcast, which does that but also gets pretty sexy. Please join us on an odyssey into the great American psyche.
