S6E12: A Museum of Hell
Added 2022-08-15 22:15:17 +0000 UTCJerry Stahl and Bret Easton Ellis continue their conversation about Nein, Nein, Nein! and also talk about preparing to write a book and the best way to score a coveted Hollywood writing credit when the competition is fierce. Part 2 of 2.

never found the guest charming. never found the guest funny. And that includes the extremely clueless title of his 'book' (shudder). The guest has much in common with street prostitutes. Except the service the girls provide is considerably more worthy. and they're probably a lot funnier. Meow.

2023-04-18 00:09:02 +0000 UTCI was about to suggest, film critic and Z Channel guy, F. X. Feeney as a guest. But I just saw that he died in 2020. :(

2022-08-29 23:40:38 +0000 UTCIt's just that it's so fucking <b>done</b> already. We're all sick of the Holocaust industry. Other people have suffered and continue to suffer. Get over it already!

2022-08-29 23:37:48 +0000 UTCGreat perspective. I agree.

2022-08-26 21:48:35 +0000 UTCYou sound a little bit upset because Jerry was talking shit about your boy Adolf. SPOILER ALERT: Hilter sucks.

2022-08-26 07:11:03 +0000 UTCI’m having that experience right now. Listening to Joe Rogan , Louis CK and some other guy. Listening about how Bill fucking Hicks was such a genius when he cleared a room. “People that aren’t comics don’t understand “. I’m glad I don’t understand.

2022-08-24 09:21:44 +0000 UTCI wonder if Bret knows who Tim Dillon is…

2022-08-23 20:50:48 +0000 UTCI even root for Ben and J lo and I don’t like them much.

2022-08-23 16:30:03 +0000 UTCHahahaha. You must be fit as hell. Crazy guy
Jorge Espinha
2022-08-23 16:29:01 +0000 UTCNo no no. We should never look inside the sausage factory
Jorge Espinha
2022-08-23 16:28:23 +0000 UTCSometimes. A loud an honest laugh. Unless I’m imagining it
Jorge Espinha
2022-08-23 16:26:31 +0000 UTCYes, he is a “libtard”. Still writers are the best guests. I don’t want to date him or elect him as my representative. Good conversation. Please, more writers and film director. And….Tim Dillon
Jorge Espinha
2022-08-23 16:24:43 +0000 UTC"Hitler ate human poop. I know. I am an expert. I have a hundred books about Hitler written by Jews who hate him." This fucking guy... what a joker. Then he has the balls to talk about Hitler being a junkie. Stahl, don't you owe your entire career to being a junkie?

2022-08-23 16:12:13 +0000 UTCNot sure why a libtard like Jerry is getting so much airtime are there no good guests currently in LA?

2022-08-23 01:39:26 +0000 UTCThe last 30 minutes of Nope was a big letdown.. I liked everything up to that point.

2022-08-22 12:19:02 +0000 UTCI loved hearing about Mr. Stahl and his dedicatee to close out the interview. I’d be interested in Brett’s Nope review. I was also surprised by how much I liked the movie, just would have liked less of an action movie at the end.

2022-08-21 16:29:17 +0000 UTCI'm curious about that, too. I used to write first drafts in notebooks, but then I got used to keyboards (Word doc all the way, single spaces but double spaces for paragraphs) and started just typing first drafts. It was so much less tedious. These days I might even tap out something on a doc file on my phone, depending how an idea comes to me. But not a lot of that.

2022-08-20 23:45:28 +0000 UTCMy brother and I rewatched that Eagles documentary from a few years ago. The one that is like four years long. But we LOVED it -- even the part where they're desiccated and circumspect and old -- LOVED it. I want to find a cool CCR documentary like that though it'd probably be depressing. Anyway. It got me to thinking that the collective WE of the BEE pod and of course Bret and Adam, we should rank the best of The Eagles' solo works. Henley would obviously be the champion....but is that obvious? Glenn Frey might have something to say about that. Or Joe Walsh. I admit I am quite fond of Smuggler's Blues and You Belong to the City. I've heard the Heat Is On way too many times. Fuck that one. Anyone like that idea?

2022-08-20 23:41:16 +0000 UTCsomeone who is a platinum QA member should ask bret if he uses ms word, prints and edits by hand, saves all his drafts, double spaces, etc.--former aspiring writer i know i sound like the lamest nerd ever but im so into that stuff
Collin Myers
2022-08-20 18:40:55 +0000 UTCDoes Bret ever laugh?

2022-08-20 15:16:29 +0000 UTCI love that Bret implements writing to combat pain and his tears of spiritual relief were heartwarming. Unrelated: Another author and bassist for Blondie, Gary Lachlan(aka Gary Valentine), who writes primarily about the occult could make an interesting guest. I would suggest it to Adam, but I can’t warrant the pricey subscription. Otherwise I’d ask if Bret’s ever been in trouble for his use of Roman à clef and what he’d think of Bronze Age Mindset in regards to his previous Red Scare guests’ admiration for it and their apparent to shift to the neo-reactionary Thiel-funded right wing. Alas, however, I reside far below on the silvery tier of the Patreon caste….

2022-08-20 04:07:09 +0000 UTCI just finished watching Marathon Man cause of this episode. Good movie, was way better than I had ever considered

2022-08-19 22:01:33 +0000 UTClol at the cpac race mixing thing....I see he is back writing fiction...

2022-08-19 03:16:24 +0000 UTCI think I’ve had my fill of Jerry Stahl for the foreseeable future
Brian Borough
2022-08-18 23:34:50 +0000 UTCYou know, when Marc Maron has a comic on and they talk about the “craft”, I wanna freak. What nonsense! What navel gazing! “The modern day philosopher”. Zzz… But man! When Bret and guest talk writing, it is absolutely the best stuff. Ear candy.
Brian Rooney
2022-08-18 23:19:47 +0000 UTCYes. I always think that. Especially Glamorama and Lunar Park for some reason.

2022-08-18 23:17:54 +0000 UTCWould be interesting to see a sample page from his outlines.
Dave
2022-08-18 16:41:45 +0000 UTCLoved hearing BEE describe his approach to writing.
Dave
2022-08-18 16:40:00 +0000 UTCam going to listen on my run. will say more later, after my run
