Let's Talk Decay with J.R. Blanes

What would you do if you couldn’t make your art anymore? If you couldn’t write? If you couldn’t cook, or play music, or read? If your creative outlet and passion were taken away? Those are just a few of the horrifying questions I discuss with special guest J.R. Blanes, whose novel Portraits of Decay will make you consider the meaning of art, dark magic, the tension between the Hollywood version of voodoo and the reality, and more! J.R. Blanes is the author of multiple short horror stories, appearing via Wicked Shadow Press, Hiraeth Publishing, Dark Horses Magazine, the NoSleep Podcast, Tales to Terrify and more. His debut novel, the New Orleans-inspired Portraits of Decay, was recently published through Ruadán Books.

Strange Tales with Daniel Braum

Who else loves The Twilight Zone? Who else enjoys being plunged into a strange, surreal world? If this describes you, then join me and author Daniel Braum as we discuss strange tales, why we’re drawn to the macabre, and what we wish we saw more of in the horror world. Daniel Braum writes short stories that explore the tension between the psychological and the supernatural. His debut short story collection The Night Marchers and Other Strange Tales was re-released in 2023 in a new edition from Cemetery Dance Publications. His stories have also appeared in many magazines and anthologies including the The Best Horror of the Year Volume 12 edited by Ellen Datlow.

BONUS ENCORE: The Tinder Chronicles and the Horror and Humor of Modern Dating

This very special bonus encore episode featuring the horrors of modern dating celebrates the publication of my satirical novel-in-stories, The Tinder Chronicles! First dates can be hell… or hilarious. Dating can be horrible, but the right attitude can turn even the worst date into something memorable. From wannabe rappers to semi-pro golfers, from naughty ventriloquists to unicycle-riding parrot dads, this novel-in-stories showcases the humor of modern dating in over fifty snappy, witty vignettes—most of which are based on true stories. It’s safe to say dating today is very different compared to dating a few decades ago. The introduction of smartphones and dating apps has radically changed how we meet people--and not always for the better. Today’s special guest, Dr. Camille Holiner, and I both met our husbands on dating apps, and we’re here to discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of the dating process. We also have a bonus mystery guest who shares some hilarious, horrifying, and spicy stories from his dating app experience!

Receiving Intercepts with T.J. Payne

T.J. Payne is the author of the smash hit INTERCEPTS, which has sold over 95,000 copies and has had over 25 million page reads on Kindle Unlimited since its publication in 2019. He’s also the author of THE VENUE and IN MY FATHER’S BASEMENT. Born and raised in Portland, OR, he moved to Hollywood with plans to write romantic comedies, but as he worked on his craft, he found his stories drifting toward more sinister themes--and aren’t we all so grateful he found his home in horror! Join us as we discuss the hardcover release of INTERCEPTS, going from self-publishing to traditional publishing, TV and movie writing, and relationships as the heart of horror stories.
