Nov 11, 2026 22 min

Owen Wilson is chasing a comeback, Peter Dager is starting to sound like him, and Stick is taking its characters in some very different directions. Creator and showrunner Jason Keller joins Kyle Meredith to talk about season two of the Apple TV comedy, why he considers the series a love letter to his Midwestern roots, and how Joseph Campbell's idea of the hero's journey shapes the growing challenges facing Price and Santi. Keller also reveals how blasting classic rock in the writers' room led to a soundtrack featuring The Who, The Rolling Stones, ZZ Top, and CAAMP, while Dager and Lilli Kay discuss the pressures of fame, Zero finding her own ambitions, and how the characters' struggles have started reflecting their own lives. Plus, there's Kay's attempt at a Marc Maron impression, Dager picking up Wilson's unmistakable cadence, and a little Bowie and Prince appreciation to bring it all home.

Rachel Bilson, Arden Myrin, and Rob Riggle on Christmas at the Kringles, Wild Improvisation, and Kevin Lewis’ Unseen 25-Minute Cut

Nov 2, 2026 33 min

Rachel Bilson spent much of Christmas at the Kringles trying not to laugh at Arden Myrin and Thomas Lennon, even while her own character was being hypnotized into a holiday nightmare. Bilson and Myrin talk with Kyle Meredith about the Christmas-obsessed cult at the center of the movie, how Bilson kept “Silent Night” playing in her head during her drugged-out scenes, and why Myrin thinks she'd make a pretty great cult leader herself. Rob Riggle follows with stories about playing a foul-mouthed, drunken Santa, the surreal experience of trading punches with Beverly D'Angelo, and why he's been branching out into more dramatic roles. Director Kevin Lewis then gets into his love of Sam Raimi's wild camera work, why he considers the movie a spiritual successor to Willy's Wonderland, and the 20 to 25 minutes of unused footage he'd love to release as the "Kringle Cut," along with a few ideas for bringing these Christmas-loving lunatics back for another round.

Kate Siegel on Directing Carrie, Her Dream of Casting Olivia Rodrigo, and Feature Debut Method

Oct 28, 2026 41 min

Kate Siegel knew the trick to making Carrie’s first house party terrifying was letting her have a great time. Talking with Kyle Meredith about directing episode three of Mike Flanagan’s Stephen King adaptation, she connects her own experiences with bullying and teenage freedom to a night inspired by Can’t Hardly Wait and 10 Things I Hate About You. Then we get properly nerdy about the needle drops, searching through roughly 400 songs for one scene, and making a car float with a decidedly unglamorous jack. Siegel also shares where her feature directorial debut Method stands, her plans for feminist filmmaking through Legitimate Pictures, and a dream of casting Olivia Rodrigo, so somebody get that message to Olivia.

Deborah Ann Woll & Jeffrey Donovan on The Cycle, Practical Effects, and First-Day Morgue Scenes

Oct 26, 2026 30 min

Deborah Ann Woll had one nonnegotiable for The Cycle’s horror effects, and it was making sure they actually existed in the room. She and Jeffrey Donovan talk with Kyle Meredith about the film’s practical creatures, keeping its big reveal under wraps, and starting their work together with a decomposing body on a morgue table. Woll gets into the forensic research that shaped her performance, while Donovan explains how the set’s attention to detail put the pressure on him to deliver. Add Oregon’s coastal fog, a supposedly haunted Victorian rental, and David Soul’s “Silver Lady,” and even the soundtrack starts looking suspicious.

Stephen Wilson Jr. on Singing with Eddie Vedder, the Pixies Connection in “Hardwired,” and Finding His Father in “Cornerman”

Oct 21, 2026 27 min

Stephen Wilson Jr. calls singing Chris Cornell’s part of “Hunger Strike” alongside Eddie Vedder at Ohana Festival one of the greatest moments of his life, and he tells Kyle Meredith how a cover he recorded just for himself led to sharing the stage with one of his heroes. The two also get into his recent run of singles, including how a last-minute writing session with Miranda Lambert turned into “Hardwired,” why interpolating the Pixies’ “Where Is My Mind?” gives both songs an entirely different meaning, and how his music keeps finding connections he never planned. Wilson also opens up about “Cornerman,” which he sees as a sequel to “Father's Son,” and the realization that moving forward after Son of Dad might mean finally letting go of his father, even as he continues to show up in the songs. Plus, the former scientist and boxer talks about turning the Ryman Auditorium into a boxing ring, his dad’s love of Muhammad Ali, and why making music sometimes feels like having a friend and an opponent in the same corner.

Ariel Winter on The Sisters Grimm, Finding Her Inner Snark, and Returning to Sofia the First

Oct 19, 2026 32 min

Ariel Winter says playing a sarcastic, cynical character like Sabrina Grimm comes pretty naturally, mostly because she recognizes a little of herself in the role. The Modern Family star talks with Kyle Meredith about Season 2 of The Sisters Grimm, why the show’s themes of family and foster children matter just as much as its fairy-tale adventures, and how she found Sabrina’s voice by channeling a younger version of herself. Winter also looks at returning to Sofia the First, discovering that fans are following her from one magical world to another, and the strange experience of voicing animated characters who never have to grow up, even as she does.

Oct 14, 2026 28 min

Getting older just means getting louder for Danny Elfman and Filter’s Richard Patrick. Both catch up with Kyle Meredith backstage at Louder Than Life 2026, where Elfman reveals how Tool’s Fear Inoculum got him through hours of tattooing, why he never expected to return to the stage, and how his next album comes with a David Lynch-inspired movie featuring Slash, Thundercat, and Caleb Landry Jones. Meanwhile, Patrick says he’s making the heaviest music of his career with A Place to Kill, talks about Ministry’s massive influence on Filter, and previews the upcoming album The Antidote, which picks up where The Algorithm left off.

Oct 12, 2026 19 min

V/H/S/MIXTAPE turns music into a weapon, and RZA, David Moreau, Ernest Dickerson, and Renee Zhan each found a very different way to make that nightmare work. The four filmmakers talk with Kyle Meredith about the music-driven V/H/S installment, from RZA sampling the sounds of New York and imagining the “tone in death,” to Moreau weaponizing total silence inside an anechoic chamber, Dickerson recruiting Flying Lotus for an alien musical battle, and Zhan discovering that the puppeteers at Jim Henson’s Creature Shop were more than ready to get bloody. RZA also considers taking his horrifying finished track one step further and actually putting some verses on it.

The Cast of Carrie on Reinventing a Classic, Mike Flanagan’s Set Rules & the Blurry Line Between Heroes and Villains

Oct 7, 2026 29 min

Mike Flanagan had the same first reaction a lot of people did to another Carrie adaptation: “Why?” and he tells Kyle Meredith that he wouldn’t touch Stephen King’s story until he had a good answer, which meant looking at what cruelty, bullying, empathy, and being a teenager mean right now. The writer/director, along with Summer H. Howell, Samantha Sloyan, Amber Midthunder, Matthew Lillard, Alison Thornton, Josie Totah, Joel Oulette, and Arthur Conti join Kyle to dig into the month of rehearsals, Flanagan’s no-phones and no-sides rules, finding sympathy in characters who do some awful things, and how Totah turned Tina into a role Flanagan initially didn’t even like. And then there’s Conti, who looks great behind the wheel of that muscle car despite failing two driving tests and having somebody in a wig do the actual driving. Listen to Mike Flanagan, Summer H. Howell, Samantha Sloyan, Amber Midthunder, Matthew Lillard, Alison Thornton, Josie Totah, Joel Oulette, and Arthur Conti chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Oct 5, 2026 22 min

Laraine Newman is all for scaring the kids a little. The Saturday Night Live original cast member talks with Kyle Meredith about returning as Granny Relda for season two of The Sisters Grimm, why the show’s mix of comedy and horror works just as well for adults, and how she can pull the character’s voice right back out of the trunk when it’s time to record. Newman also looks back at studying mime with Marcel Marceau, explains why she bailed when mime “got cute,” and admits it didn’t exactly inform her acting, although it did make her very good at Pilates. Along the way, Kyle and Newman also land on the career move nobody knew we needed: punk-rock mime. Listen to Laraine Newman chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

What happens when the world gets darker and the music starts absorbing it? In this KMW Rewind, Wolf Parade’s Dan Boeckner talks with Kyle Meredith about reuniting for Cry Cry Cry, why the band had to prove they could still write together before returning to the stage, and how political disillusionment found its way into songs like “Weaponized” and “Artificial Life.” Then The Black Angels’ Alex Maas digs into Death Song, the band’s connection to psychedelic history, the meaning behind the album’s title, and why he sees music as therapy rather than simply entertainment.

Theo Rossi on Come With Me, the Indie-Film Boom, and Refusing to Be Typecast

Sep 28, 2026 41 min

Theo Rossi wants movies that leave you arguing in the parking lot. The Sons of Anarchy and Emily the Criminal star talks with Kyle Meredith about Come With Me, playing Simon as an ordinary guy enduring a “death by a thousand cuts,” and why the film was built to let audiences wrestle with whether he’s a victim or a villain rather than hand them an answer. Rossi also makes the case that we may be living through a new golden age of independent film, explains why actors can’t afford to “just be an actor” anymore, and talks about taking control of his career through producing, including The Saviors and his first rom-com, Maid of Dishonor, with Emily Hampshire.

Sep 23, 2026 22 min

Modern English frontman Robbie Grey talks with Kyle Meredith about reuniting the band’s original lineup for 2017’s Take Me to the Trees, recapturing the fire of Mesh & Lace and After the Snow, and writing “You’re Corrupt” amid Trump, Brexit, and widening inequality. Then Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook takes the focus as he and Tom Spencer discuss rebuilding The Professionals without Steve Jones, creating a more contemporary version of the band’s poppy punk sound, and calling in famous friends to complete the album.

Peaches on No Lube So Rude, Menopause, and Fighting for Connection

Sep 21, 2026 25 min

Peaches is done with “me versus them,” but she’s definitely not done fighting. Talking with Kyle Meredith, Peaches digs into No Lube So Rude, her first album in a decade, and how a world getting more polarized pushed her back toward new music, while menopause, aging, sexuality, and the need for some actual communication all found their way into the songs. She also talks about growing older alongside the fans who first found her 25 years ago, the wild public reactions to political drag artist Jenna Marvin while filming the “You’re All Rights” video in Paris, and turning old opera costumes into something much stranger for her new live show. Turns out the lube is literal, political, generational, and maybe exactly what everybody needs. Listen to Peaches chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

David Dastmalchian on Street Fighter, Building M. Bison’s Cult, and the Tool-Fueled Soundtrack Behind the Role

Sep 14, 2026 38 min

David Dastmalchian is building M. Bison from the cult leader up. Talking with Kyle Meredith, the actor says the new Street Fighter finds Bison before he’s mastered Psycho Power, which meant digging into dictators, religious movements, and the psychology of getting people to follow you instead of simply playing the big bad boss. He also gets into the Tool, Nine Inch Nails, Joy Division, Nick Cave, and John Williams-heavy playlist he used to get into character, why director Kitao Sakurai’s practical, anything-goes approach made the set feel like living inside a video game, and becoming friends with co-star Orville Peck. Dastmalchian also talks Grave Conversations, why putting celebrities in coffins gets them opening up fast, and how Good Fiend Films has become a landing spot for the kind of horror, sci-fi, comic book, and genre stories where the weird stuff can still carry some big ideas.

Songs have lives of their own, and some political ones have an unfortunate habit of becoming relevant all over again. In this KMW Rewind, Valerie June talks with Kyle Meredith across two archival conversations about drawing from spirituals and early blues, teaching herself to play around her voice, and making Pushing Against the Stone and The Order of Time, while Billy Bragg explains why protest writers need to spend as much time on the song as the protest.

Slowdive’s second act turned out to be much bigger than anyone in the band expected.

Aug 26, 2026 24 min

Dugout Dads reunites some familiar faces, but Patrick Renna and Danielle Fishel have no interest in trying to recreate The Sandlot or Boy Meets World. The longtime friends talk with Kyle Meredith about Renna turning the insanity of Little League parents into a new comedy series, bringing his Sandlot castmates back as fictionalized versions of themselves, and why Fishel sees the whole thing as “rebooting a cast” instead of rebooting a classic. They also get into Renna independently funding and building the series for YouTube, plans to expand it into a full season with more of a Curb Your Enthusiasm feel, and the cameos already lining up, including Creed Bratton, Michael Peña, and potentially Seth Green.

She also gets into the hilarious AI-generated bro-country song buried in the middle of Bloodhorse!, why it’s deliberately surrounded by very real musicians playing very real instruments, and the joyful release behind “Witch,” including the moment Wilson handed her an actual scythe and sent her back in to sing it again.

Anthony Michael Hall on Nation’s Dumbest, Surviving 50 Years in Hollywood, and Halloween Store

Aug 17, 2026 32 min

Anthony Michael Hall says the secret to a 50-year acting career is learning how to “outlast uncertainty,” and that can also mean signing up for a game show called Nation’s Dumbest. Hall talks with Kyle Meredith about getting past the title of the Fox and Hulu celebrity competition, being surprised by castmates like JoJo Siwa, Steve-O, Elle King, and Andrew Yang, and why the whole experience reminded him not to take himself too seriously.

After five decades of peaks, valleys, horror, comedy, and action, Hall’s philosophy continues to be about staying humble, adapting, and remembering that at the end of the day, it’s still make-believe.

David Rysdahl and Lily Sullivan join Kyle Meredith to dig into Soulm8te, talking about how the M3GAN universe uses horror to explore grief, addiction, and the ways technology fills emotional voids. Sullivan breaks down creating an android that always feels just a little off, drawing from old Hollywood, movement work, and ideas about constructed femininity, while Rysdahl explains why his character had to be played without judgment so audiences could decide for themselves. They also get into filming in Ireland, collaborating with director Kate Dolan, and how being screenwriters has changed the way they approach acting.

Jay Chandrasekhar on Super Troopers 3, Bringing Back R-Rated Comedy, and Brown Supremacist

Aug 7, 2026 30 min

Jay Chandrasekhar wants Super Troopers 3 to help bring loud, R-rated comedy back to theaters, and he’s not interested in turning it into another political shouting match. Talking with Kyle Meredith, the Broken Lizard filmmaker explains why the new sequel plays like Meet the Parents meets Super Troopers, how Farva’s Indian wedding opened the door for some seriously edgy jokes, and why one gag still went too far to survive. He also gets into the Dukes of Hazzard-style car jump, Mac getting frozen in maple syrup, the future of Beerfest, and finally putting his decades of standup on camera for Brown Supremacist. Nine films in, Broken Lizard is still chasing the big laugh and leaving just enough bait for the studio to order another round.

Aug 5, 2026 36 min

This Rewind episode brings together two conversations about bands refusing to let a familiar sound become a comfortable trap. Guster’s Ryan Miller, speaking with Kyle Meredith in 2016, digs into Evermotion, moving beyond ’90s nostalgia, and reinventing the band through new instruments and studio experimentation, while Phoenix’s Thomas Mars looks back from 2017 on how Italian pop, cryptic English, Bowie, Prince, and getting bored with his own voice shaped Ti Amo. Both arrive at a similar place, making pop music that sounds joyful on the surface while something much stranger moves underneath.

Octavia Spencer, Hannah Waddingham, Tessa Coates, and Matt Miller on Ride or Die and Rewriting the Action-Comedy Rules

Jul 13, 2026 15 min

Ride or Die starts with the best kind of best-friend problem: one of them is an international assassin and that’s not even the whole mess. Octavia Spencer, Hannah Waddingham, Tessa Coates, and Matt Miller talk with Kyle Meredith about the Prime Video series, from Waddingham finally getting to go full action star and Spencer digging into the friendship at the center of it, to Coates building a female action story that sends the assassin back for her best friend instead of the typical husband or kid. Miller gets into making eight episodes feel like one big globe-trotting movie, even if most of Europe was secretly Prague, while everyone circles the bigger win here of “women of a certain age” getting to be funny, complicated, dangerous, and completely in charge of the ride.

Rewind: Kurt Vile and Kevin Morby on City Songs, Strange Fame, and Writing Your Way Out

Jul 8, 2026 23 min

Kurt Vile and Kevin Morby both know how to make city songs feel lonely, funny, half-haunted, and still totally wide open. Vile talks with Kyle Meredith about 2016’s B'lieve I’m Goin Down, being cartooned into a stoner squirrel on HBO’s Animals, fame arriving one weird step at a time, and writing songs that leave room for everyone else to move in. Morby then discusses 2017’s City Music, turning New York isolation into fiction from out in Los Angeles, building “1234” out of the Ramones and Jim Carroll, and leaving bands behind so he could try on every suit that fit. Two songwriters chasing loose ends, street noise, and the next version of themselves.

Jul 6, 2026 20 min

Tori Amos talks with Kyle Meredith about In Times of Dragons, the concept record she built out of democracy cracking in real time, dangerous men behind the curtain, Celtic gods, witches, daughters, and the younger self who wrote "Silent All These Years." She also gets into writing fast, bringing Matt Chamberlain and John Evans back into the room, how her daughter Tash helped unlock the daughter’s role in the story, and why older records like Strange Little Girls can sneak back into the cupboard when the songs need the right ingredients.

Jul 1, 2026 46 min

Joel Courtney & Andy Delaney on 40 Dates and 40 Nights, Rom-Com Chemistry, and Finding the Truth in Dating

Jun 29, 2026 17 min

A rom-com may promise the ending, but Joel Courtney and director Andy Delaney tell Kyle Meredith that 40 Dates and 40 Nights is really about everything that happens in between. Delaney talks about using the genre as a way to focus on “the micro,” leaning into character details, awkward moments, and real-life experiences pulled directly from writer Sarah Howard’s own dating history. Courtney discusses finding Mason’s grounded, relatable side and reveals that his own love story is something of a rarity, having ultimately married the only woman he ever seriously dated. The two also dive into the chemistry between Courtney and co-star Bailee Madison, the importance of authenticity over broad comedy, and why the film’s failed dates had to feel like real people instead of cartoons.

Jun 24, 2026 31 min

Gerry Beckley still has a lot in the vault, and Merciful proves it. The America co-founder talks with Kyle Meredith about stepping away from touring after 50-plus years, splitting time between Los Angeles and Sydney, and finally having the space to write, record, and chase ideas without getting off a plane every other day.

Tony Hale and director Ol Parker join Kyle Meredith to talk about Office Romance, the new Netflix comedy starring Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein.

Jun 1, 2026 49 min

Tom Cavanagh tells Kyle Meredith why the writing on You’re Killing Me worked so well that the cast mostly just had to stay out of its way. The Flash and Scrubs favorite talks about building his small-town detective alongside Brooke Shields and Amelia Williamson, improvising lines, sneaking a little Columbo into the performance, and why knowing the ending helped him “keep the powder dry” until the finale.

Judith Light on The Terror: Devil in Silver, Mental Health, and How Horror Finally Found Her

May 27, 2026 23 min

Judith Light says horror found her, not the other way around, but The Terror: Devil in Silver might be the role that proves she belongs there. Talking with Kyle Meredith, the legendary actress gets into disappearing into the character of Dory, a woman abandoned inside a psychiatric hospital for decades, while also digging into the series’ bigger themes around mental health, homelessness, and a healthcare system that leaves people behind.

Kimiko Glenn on Modern Dance, Dating Chaos, and Turning Heartbreak Into Pop Songs

May 25, 2026 39 min

Kimiko Glenn says every relationship on her debut EP Modern Dance was either doomed from the start or became material eventually, and talking with Kyle Meredith, she gets into the very real stories behind it all. The Orange Is the New Black and Kiff star talks about finally putting her “secret” songs out into the world after years of treating music like a private diary, channeling grief into her first single “Oh Honey,” and finding a weirdly perfect lane between synth-pop confessionals and total visual chaos. They also get into dating in the age of the manosphere, emotionally intelligent men apparently becoming an endangered species, directing her own completely unhinged “Hang Out Forever” video, and why voice acting accidentally gave her the freedom to become a musician in the first place. Also, she’s playing Peni Parker in the new Spider-Man animated movie, which means Gerard Way technically helped create one of her next big roles.

Jack Antonoff on Bleachers, Grief, and Springsteen’s Advice

May 20, 2026 20 min

Jack Antonoff says all he really wants out of life is to make records and tour, and that turns into a surprisingly heavy conversation with Kyle Meredith about grief, ancestry, community, religion, and why Bleachers’ new album Everyone for Ten Minutes accidentally became an origin story. They get into the “ancestral pact” of leaving home to chase art, Bruce Springsteen’s advice about building a life around music, the weirdness of becoming famous enough to watch your own history rewritten, and why Antonoff thinks concerts are closer to church than actual churches. There’s also plenty on balancing the producer side with the artist side, finding “magic” in recording sessions, and why sometimes the demo is still the best version no matter how much money you throw at it.

May 18, 2026 32 min

Maya Hawke tells Kyle Meredith that her new album MAITREYA CORSO accidentally became a love record after falling deeper into her relationship and eventually marrying songwriting partner Christian Lee Hudson, and the conversation gets pretty fascinating from there.
