My guest this week is New York journalist and author, Thomas Golianopoulos. We spoke about watching movies on cable, the virtues of the movie theater experience, a handful of moments from his career as a journalist for outlets like Complex, Pitchfork, and Grantland, all things John Singleton—from his films to his personal life and as much as we could fit into this conversation—and the creative process behind Golianopoulos’s debut book, The Life of Singleton: From Boyz N The Hood to Snowfall, out now via AndScape Books and Penguin House Publishing. Come fuck with us.
My first book, Reel Notes: Culture Writing on the Margins of Music and Movies, is available now, via 4 PM Publishing. Order a digital copy on Amazon.
