Chuck Palahniuk is best known for his novel-turned-cult-classic-film Fight Club, but the prolific author has published a book nearly every year for the past two decades. His newest is called Shock Induction.  Chuck tells host Rachel Belle about the recipes fans have sent him from prison (and which he's made!), why he can hardly look at a peach, let alone eat one, and why his mouth waters at the mere thought of a crusty, stale Hostess snack cake.   Chuck's mom was not a great cook, but she was excellent at frosting cakes, specifically the Barbie cakes she made for her children in the 1960s and '70s. We explore the long history of decorated doll cakes with food scholar KC Hysmith.   And, an extreme culinary creature of habit, Chuck reveals the meal he's eaten three times a day for the past several years!

On Election Day in America, with the nation at the polls, Al spoke with a man uniquely placed to comment on the fractures underpinning the battle for the nation. Chuck Palahniuk, you see, is the author of 21 novels, but probably best known for his first - 1996's Fight Club, later adapted by David Fincher into one of the defining films of its era. Since then, the story has had this unexpected cultural half life, going on to become an unlikely part of the rhetoric of modern politics. The term "snowflake," popular with young men within the right-wing MAGA movement, is derived from Chuck's novel. But the connections don't end there between Chuck's work and an America ablaze with male rage, as cultural commentators frequently put it. Across his career since that culture-shifting story, the author's work has continued to contemplate the "real" America – not what the country wants to be, but the sometimes uncomfortable reality of what it could become. In books like his 2018 novel Adjustment Day – about a version of America splintered off into different enclaves sorted by political ideology – hints lie at perhaps how we got here. His latest novel, Shock Induction, released earlier this year, feels just as loaded with insights about our time.On this today's show – a conversation to mark the 20th anniversary of Fincher's Fight Club, with the man from whose imagination Tyler Durden first sprung. Chuck didn't write the movie adaptation of Fight Club – that honour fell to screenwriter Jim Uhls. Instead, Chuck was able to witness from afar the oddity of this story he'd written – about a white-collared insomniac who forms an underground bare knuckle fighting ring with an enigmatic soap salesman – becoming itself commodified and turned into merchandise, despite its warnings against consumerism. He got to witness the film intersect in a strange way with 9/11 and an immediate shift in the culture afterwards, away from subversion. And he was left with the question, what will Chuck Palahniuk do next? The answer was a bibliography full of more grime, dirt, depravity and yes, mayhem.This show is typically an interview series reserved for screenwriters, but when Al was reading Chuck's brilliant latest novel, Shock Induction, released earlier this year, he was overrun with questions for the Portland-based author. Questions like: what is it that's so necessary about the grotesquery of his stories, in an increasingly sanitised culture of storytelling? Where exactly did the anti-corporatism of his work come from? How did he devise that twist in Fight Club that continues to reverberate to this day? And of course, what's the latest on rumours of a Fight Club rock opera that he was once said to be devising with Fincher? Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

This past April was the podcast's 10-year anniversary, and the platform River helped listeners organize parties around the world in more than 180 cities! More than 4,000 people RSVP'd. I was able to join about 40 cities via Zoom for quick hellos and drinks (huge thanks to Rae and Ana for the quarterbacking), and I had a blast dropping in on the Paris meetup in person. Thanks to everyone who gathered for wine, celebration, and meeting like-minded people! After all the parties, and as a thank you for their hard work, I invited all of the hosts to a private Q&A. And that's what you're about to hear.This episode is brought to you by: Momentous high-quality supplements: https://livemomentous.com/tim (code TIM for 20% off)Shopify global commerce platform, providing tools to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business: https://shopify.com/tim (one-dollar-per-month trial period)LinkedIn Ads, the go-to tool for B2B marketers and advertisers who want to drive brand awareness and generate leads: LinkedIn.com/TFS ($100 LinkedIn ad credit) Timestamps:[00:00] Start [07:08] A focus on reinvention.[07:43] Optimization.[08:30] Recent joy.[09:22] A CØCKPUNCH update.[10:19] How the day's going so far.[10:55] Argentina affection.[11:51] Intriguing investments.[12:53] Top three snacks.[13:12] AI thoughts.[14:15] Modern dating.[16:32] Self-experimentation to come.[17:42] Analyzing the past decade's risks.[20:06] Outthinking a career bottleneck.[21:09] My current big project.[22:19] Peptides.[22:37] Be wary of high conviction.[23:06] Preparation for high-stakes presentations.[24:42] Kid stuff?[24:56] Getting the most out of a Tim Ferriss meetup.[26:13] In-person conferences planned?[26:18] IBS relief.[27:03] Personal heresies.[28:26] What makes conferences worthwhile for me?[29:00] Longevity and healthspan.[33:21] Tips for a father-and-son Kumano Kodo walk.[34:49] A barbell distribution approach to life.[35:31] Who would I resurrect for a podcast interview?[36:24] Do I consult any mentors regularly?[36:54] Ayahuasca and antidepressants.[38:16] Incentivizing potential mentors.[39:13] Adventures in babysitting.[40:04] GLP-1 for depression/anxiety.[40:37] Cheap but choice art.[41:05] Finding a book agent.[41:28] Making positive, in-person connections.[41:44] Unmentioned things I'd like to talk about.[43:39] Is there room for the irrational?[45:59] Blogging in the age of AI.[46:39] Binaural beats.[46:56] 4-Hour Dog Training?[47:00] Best $1,000 spent lately.[47:55] Javier Milei.[48:07] Best thing I spent an “assload” on.[48:34] Painting.[48:45] 10-20 minutes on the acupuncture mat.[49:15] Dating apps.[50:15] Favorite sci-fi movies.[51:21] Reflecting on the impact this show has had on others.[52:23] Why was I in Europe for six to eight weeks?[52:31] The mood-altering effects of Q&A.[52:48] Where do I see myself in 30 years?[53:08] Workout routines for older parents.[54:13] How I walk and talk for podcasts.[54:33] Would I consider becoming a single parent?[55:38] A $1 million coffee mug?[56:52] Brazil.[56:59] A small but mighty staff.[57:07] Attracting event attendance.[59:08] Visualization or affirmations?[1:00:20] Today I learned this about Hodinkee.[1:00:26] What would this look like if it were easy?[1:00:32] What I ask show listeners when I meet them.[1:00:50] Eschewing endorsement remorse.[1:01:19] Music I like.[1:01:52] State, story, strategy.[1:01:59] The (not-so) funny thing about interviewing comedians.[1:02:17] Parting thoughts.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
