Hobo Radio Interview – Top Chef’s Stephanie Cmar

For Top Chef: All-Stars LA, the popular cooking competition brought back 15 chefs from previous seasons. With the season finale airing this Thursday, only three of them remain to compete for the top prize.

One of those three chefs is Stephanie Cmar, a New England native who was eliminated in the qualifying round of Season 10 (which her dear friend Kristen Kish won), then came back and finished seventh in Season 11. We interviewed Stephanie about her previous runs on the show, her decision to come back for All-Stars, her friendship with Kish and what the future holds.

Hobo Radio Interview – Remembering Dennis O’Neil

Subscribe:

Comic book legend Dennis O’Neil passed away at the age of 81. O’Neil was a writer for both Marvel and DC Comics from the 1960s through the 1990s. He created Ra’s and Talia al Ghul and, as DC’s Batman editor, oversaw the Knightfall storyline that introduced the world to Bane.

In 2012, Joel Murphy interviewed O’Neil for an article about Bane to introduce causal fans to the character before the release of Christopher Nolan’s film The Dark Knight Rises. Most of the interview, unfortunately, ended up on the cutting room floor and has never been heard before. But today, to honor the man and his amazing legacy, Murphy is releasing the full, unedited 40-minute interview for the first time.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • Interstitial – “Glass Android” by Lee Rosevere

After going dark last week in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter protests around the country, Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle are back with a new episode.

They talk a bit about the protests and this moment in history we are all living through. They also discuss Hollywood’s depiction of police officers in films and television and how police procedural shows like Law and Order inform how Americans feel about real-life cops. And finally, Joel and Lars learn that Charlton Heston’s ghost spits fire and hates police.
