  • RaMell Ross on Nickel Boys: Colson Whitehead’s Masterpiece on the Screen

    RaMell Ross on Nickel Boys: Colson Whitehead’s Masterpiece on the Screen
    Jan 7 2025
    On this episode, we were joined by Oscar-nominated filmmaker RaMell Ross, director and co-writer of Nickel Boys, the new screen adaptation of Colson Whitehead's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel.

    Rated five stars by The Times and The Guardian, hailed as a "masterpiece" by The Independent, and recently named Best Film of 2024 by the National Society of Film Critics, Ross' film is a transformative adaptation of Whitehead's novel, employing a first-person POV that faithfully translates the book's prose experience into the language of cinema.

    RaMell spoke to us about the daunting task of adapting the work of a literary icon, his unique journey from potential NBA prospect to artist, his love of J.D. Salinger, and whether genre-oriented books make for the most successful screen adaptations.

  • Lili Anolik on Didion & Babitz: Joan’s Bethlehem vs Eve’s Bedlam

    Lili Anolik on Didion & Babitz: Joan’s Bethlehem vs Eve’s Bedlam
    Dec 24 2024
    On this episode, we were joined by Lili Anolik, contributing editor at Vanity Fair, and author of Didion & Babitz, a provocatively entertaining account of the feud between two key countercultural voices of the 1960s and '70s – the iconic Joan Didion and the lesser-known Eve Babitz.

    Lili spoke us to about her decade's long obsession with Eve Babitz, her scepticism of the Didion mystique, Pauline Kael, and the crucial role that Los Angeles played in the development of these two literary titans.

    Covering everyone from Charles Manson to Marcel Duchamp, Lili takes us headlong into two tumultuous decades, demonstrating why Eve Babitz considered Los Angeles in the 1970s to be the Moveable Feast that Hemingway and Fitzgerald experienced in the Paris of the '20s.

    Hosted by Ryan Edgington and Matt Hennessey. Produced by Lily Woods.

  • Karl Ove Knausgaard on The Third Realm: Transcendence, Translation, and Twin Peaks

    Karl Ove Knausgaard on The Third Realm: Transcendence, Translation, and Twin Peaks
    Oct 22 2024
    In this episode, we were joined by Karl Ove Knausgaard, author of one of the key literary phenomenons of the 2010s, My Struggle, to discuss his latest novel, The Third Realm, the latest instalment in the riveting Morning Star series.

    Karl Ove spoke to us about his journey toward becoming more at ease in literary interviews, his relationship with his work in translation, and how music informs one’s sense of identity—contrasting, for instance, his youthful love of punk and R.E.M. with his daughter’s of Ariana Grande. We also discuss “artistic preciousness” and how he has evolved from seeing writing as “sacrosanct” to being able to work at the kitchen table despite constant interruptions.

    Hosted by Ryan Edgington and Matt Hennessey. Produced by Lily Woods.
