Clay McLeod Chapman, for me, arrived at a time where I was in-between podcasts, and going through some health things, etc. Which is to say that I kinda missed his emergence onto the scene. So, I heard him on podcasts talking about his then-new book GHOST EATERS, and I became interested. Last year, it didn’t work out to interview Clay for WHAT KIND OF MOTHER, which was disappointing. SO, when I caught wind that he had something coning out on Shortwave, I took it as my chance to finally get him… on the line. What you’re about to listen to sounds a lot like old friends gabbing about things that they’re excited about. Just know it’s the first conversation I’ve ever had with Clay, which goes to show just how fun and open and comfortable it is to chat with the dude.And apologies to Nat Cassidy, but Clay’s episode is like a minute and change longer than yours. I guess we’ll just have to have you on again, to top your old pal. Do you want cake at your ARC Party? I know I do. For the folks that want a YouTube link: This is a public episode.
