- Kate Siegel on Looks, Sounds, and Drama of The Fall of the House of Usher
Kate Siegel catches up with Kyle Meredith to talk about her role in the Mike Flanagan-created The Fall of the House of Usher, a Netflix miniseries that is loosely based on various works by Edgar Allan Poe and tells the downfall of a family, a corrupt pharmaceutical company, and a mysterious woman plaguing the characters as they disappear one by one. Alongside Siegel, the ensemble cast also features Carla Gugino, Bruce Greenwood, Mary McDonnell, Henry Thomas, Rahul Kohli, and Mark Hamill. The actress takes us through the “necessity of pain” that weaves throughout the story, basing her look off of Mirage from The Incredibles, and finding the mood of Camille through Doja Cat’s “Won’t Bite”. Siegel also recounts the team’s need to reshoot a big chunk of the show after Frank Langella was fired after a misconduct investigation and replaced with Greenwood as the patriarch, as well as what it was like to film her death scene, coming up with her own backstory, and becoming friends with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross through their work on the score.

R.E.M.’s Mike Mills catches up with Kyle Meredith to talk about the 25th-anniversary edition of Up, their first post-Bill Berry album that found the Athens band trying out a new electronic-based sound. The bassist/songwriter discusses the difficult circumstances in which the LP was created, how they found the sound, and the stories behind songs “Airportman,” “Sad Professor,” “Daysleeper,” and “Hope”. Mills goes on to talk about why they decided not to include the demos on this deluxe package, while also confirming that there are “plenty of unheard songs in the vault.” The two also chat about the band’s recent resurgence in the popular zeitgeist, from covers from The Monkees Mickey Dolenz and Soccer Mommy to the use of their music on TV series The Bear. We also get a little-known story about remixing their debut album Murmur after I.R.S. tried to give it the 80s sound that was in vogue at the time.

Isa Briones & Ana Yi Puig join Kyle Meredith to talk about the new Goosebumps series, out now on Disney+ and Hulu. This latest iteration finds the popular R.L. Stine books given a fresh take and a bit more of an adult storyline, following a group of five high schoolers who embark on a shadowy and twisted journey to investigate the tragic passing three decades earlier of a teen named Harold Biddle — while also unearthing dark secrets from their parents’ past. Alongside Briones and Puig, the series also stars Zach Morris, Miles McKenna, Will Price, Rachael Harris, Justin Long, Rob Huebel, and Jonathan Silverman, among others. The actresses discuss bringing a fresh take to the reboot, allowing for nostalgia while creating their own version, and making sure there are still easter eggs connecting us to the original series. Briones and Puig also talk about the trauma bonding these characters go through, what they inherit from their parents, and how when even being chased by a ghost demon, they’re still able to form a love triangle. Of course, the soundtrack is also a big topic with its heavy 90s throwback featuring R.E.M, Radiohead, Soundgarden, and Elastica next to artists like Courtney Barnet and Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

Francis Lawrence joins Kyle Meredith to talk about The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, the prequel that stars Tom Blyth and Rachel Zegler and serves as an origin story to villain Coriolanus Snow and takes place 64 years before the Jennifer Lawrence-starring run of the story. The director, who was also behind Catching Fire and both Mockingjays, discusses how music has a much bigger focus this time around, working with Dave Cobb to bring the songs to life, and casting Rachel Zegler, who performs the hell out of them on screen, as well as getting to hear about the origins of “The Hanging Tree,” which Jennifer Lawrence famously sang before. Lawrence also tells us what it was like to tell a story where we know - at least somewhat - how it will end, along with the reflections of bigger social and political themes that serve as its undercurrent. Rounding out the main cast are Jason Schwartzman, Viola Davis, and Peter Dinklage, all of whom give incredible performances, and Lawrence even tips us off that there are “hours” of extra footage from Schwartzman’s time in front of the camera.

Kennedy, the writer and director, talks about originally working on a piece about the 2019 measles outbreak before transitioning to what was happening in 2020, while deGrasse Tyson digs into the social contract we as a society have - or should have - with one another. The three also bat around the idea of a versus mentality that's currently gripping the country, why people are led astray by disinformation, and how history usually has a way of showing us where we need to go. Neil and Scott also touch on the music in the film, from the Wilco song that gives the documentary its title, to how David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” speaks for the bigger themes and hopes.

The interview was recorded at the Hell or Highwater bar in Louisville, KY the day before Wainwright performed the songs with the Louisville Orchestra, so the two discuss what lends this particular album to an orchestral arrangement and why the album was always meant to be played that way, as well as a look back at that period in his career as an artist with three successful albums in a row. The multi-genre singer-songwriter also digs into the operas that he’s written, having been a fan of opera since his teen years, while he also considers why so many other artists continue to make the same songs over and over, all the while trying to figure out why his daughter likes Taylor Swift so much.

Everclear singer-songwriter Art Alexakis joins Kyle Meredith to talk about the band’s new live album, Live At The Whiskey A Go Go. The frontman starts by proclaiming that he’s done with making albums and plans to concentrate more on singles and live releases before the conversation turns to his history of writing lyrics that seem to narrate a much bigger story throughout their catalog, lyrics that include plenty of easter eggs for longtime fans. Alexakis gives the backstories on “Father of Mine” and “Local God,” the latter written for Baz Lurman’s Romeo + Juliet, and why “Nervous and Weird” and “Fire Maple Song,” both from the band’s debut LP World of Noise, still excite and resonate with him. The live album also includes two new studio cuts at the end, “Year of the Tiger” and “Sing Away,” which features his own daughter in the music video, leading the conversation to consider how his penchant for writing with the hardships of youth, and his own battles, have lead to many of the relatable moments found in some of his biggest hits. Further on, Art also says that he’d like to see deluxe editions of Sparkle & Fade and Songs For An American movie for their upcoming anniversaries, as well as the type of new releases that he’s looking forward to making.

David Yates & Lawrence Grey join Kyle Meredith to talk about the film, Pain Hustlers (out now on Netflix), which tells the story of Liza Drake (Emily Blunt), a blue-collar single mom who has just lost her job and is at the end of her rope when a chance meeting with pharmaceutical sales rep played by Chris Evans puts her on an upwards trajectory economically - but dubious path ethically - as she becomes entangled in a dangerous racketeering scheme. Dealing with her increasingly unhinged boss (Andy Garcia), the worsening medical condition of her daughter (Chloe Coleman), and a growing awareness of the devastation the company is causing forces Liza to examine her choices and ultimately gives a revealing look at what some people do out of desperation and others do out of greed. The director and producer discuss why they wanted to take on a story about the fentanyl epidemic and how this movie shows us a look behind the curtain of Big Pharma, as told through the sales reps. Grey, who also produced the Steven Soderbergh-directed The Laundromat, tells us how some of the most outlandish parts of the story came from real life, while Yates talks about directing Emily Blunt as a complicated hero/villain and how her character is already resonating with viewers. Yates, who famously directed the final four Harry Potter films as well as the Fantastic Beasts trilogy, discusses what it was like to leave the World of Wizardry to get back to a more point-and-shoot style of filmmaking.

Barton Davies, William Reames, Willard Logan, Sam McCullough, and Ford Garrard discuss the album’s tale of the stages of a relationship and how the record is a part one of a bigger release, mixing the album with car speakers and driving in mind, and their favorite artists to listen to on late night drives, including The Killers, Eagles, Motorhead, Underoath, & Sugarloaf. The Nashville-based band also talks about why whiskey plays a big part in their music, the story behind their latest single, “Something ‘Bout A Sunset,” and how Mike Dirnt of Green Day inspired one member to pick up a Fender bass.

The Killers’ Brandon Flowers joins Kyle Meredith to talk about the band’s upcoming best-of collection. The frontman tells us how their new single, "Your Side of Town," is a nod to the music of his teenage years, and goes on to dish on the vault of unreleased songs that the band has accumulated over the years, as well as how they chose which tracks would make the new compilation. Flowers also discusses what attracts him to writing about the type of characters that populated last year’s Pressure Machine, the role of religion in his lyrics, and how he’s working on a record that might end up being a new solo album. We also hear how his musical North Stars have changed and about talking with Eddie Vedder about Kenny Rogers.
