The Decade Project is an ongoing One Heat Minute Productions Patreon exclusive podcast looking back at the films released ten years ago to reflect on what continues to resonate and what's ripe for rediscovery. The second year being released on the main podcast feed is the films of 2014. To hear a fantastic chorus of guests and I unpack the films of 2015 in 2025, subscribe to our Patreon here for as little as $1 a month. In the latest episode, I catch up with Edgar-Award-winning author of She Rides Shotgun and Love and Other Wounds, and Everybody Knows - Jordan Harper - about the systemic "ick" of the media landscape depicted in NIGHTCRAWLER. ABOUT JORDAN HARPER:Jordan is the Edgar-Award-winning author of She Rides Shotgun and Love and Other Wounds. Born and educated in Missouri, he now lives in Los Angeles, where he works as a writer and producer for television.TWITTER: @JORDAN_HARPERNEWSLETTER: WELCOME TO THE HAMMER PARTYABOUT EVERYBODY KNOWSTruth may be stranger than fiction but sometimes fiction predicts the truth. Jordan Harper's new book EVERYBODY KNOWS is a combination of both. A propulsive LA crime thriller that James Patterson dubbed “the best mystery novel I've read in years,” is the story of Mae Pruett a "black-bag publicist" - she doesn't get the good news out, she keeps the bad news in – who works for “The Beast,” her name for the loose collection of lawyers, publicists and private security firms who protect and serve the wealthy and depraved of Los Angeles.Chris Tamburro is Mae's ex, a former cop fired for corruption and a fist on the Beast's arm, working as muscle for a shady lawyer. They must both confront the bad things they aid and abet when Mae's boss is gunned down in front of the Beverly Hills Hotel, dying with a secret Mae is determined to learn. Unraveling the mystery of her boss's death takes them through an electric, pulpy vision of Los Angeles, a world of homeless camp bombers, drug-addled celebrities, cop gangs who mark their kills with tattoos, a livestreamed murder, and powerful men with a secret so dark they will kill to keep it.Much of the novel is based Jordan's experiences and those of his friends and co-workers in the film and TV industry, and the whisper network of Los Angeles, “Nobody Talks but Everybody Whispers.” To be authentic Jordan wrote the opening scene about Mae having to visit a client at The Chateau Marmot, at the Chateau Marmot. Every celebrity sighting in the book is based on a real sighting he had had in the actual place he had it. Jordan also interviewed a crisis manager who represented one of the biggest villains of the MeToo era and sat down with a Hollywood actress to talk about the pressures of her life. There are literally dozens of scandals and real-life crimes that are fictionalized in the novel, from the publicist gunned down on Sunset Blvd. to the firebombing of homeless camps and many, many more.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/one-heat-minute-productions/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

I have a pretty busy week lined up so you're getting this new episode early! Returning to the podcast today, we have a fan favorite in the form of Mr. Jordan Harper. One of my dearest friends, this podcast's very first guest, and my Pandemic Movie Club, and Game Night crew buddy, Jordan is the Edgar award-winning author of She Rides Shotgun, Love & Other Wounds, The Last King of California, & Everybody Knows. Additionally, a screenwriter and producer of such shows as The Mentalist, Gotham, and Hightown, Jordan crafted one of the most beautiful pilots for L.A. Confidential, which CBS stupidly did not pick up, but was so acclaimed he screened and did a virtual panel on the show at the ATX TV Festival. A Missouri native - and yes, that will come up in today's conversation - Jordan currently lives in L.A. along with his talented screenwriter girlfriend Megan Mostyn-Brown, and adorable dog Ellroy. When Jordan & I planned this episode, we had no idea that we'd wind up recording on Day 100 of the WGA strike, which also happened to be National Book Lovers Day, or that it'd fall on a day when I could really use the distraction of laughing about movies with a good friend.A very funny, fast-paced, yet intensive blast from the past that celebrates & interrogates our childhood nostalgia, in this 85-minute conversation, we dig through what he's dubbed "a great stack of videos" from 1989. Kicking things off by sharing our thoughts on that bygone video store era (which has been revived in his Eagle Rock neighborhood, thanks to Vidiots), we open with a hilarious foray into two trashtastic films we enjoy throwing on as needed - Road House & Black Rain. Following up our discussion on those with something lighter in the form of Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, we conclude the episode with Jordan's thrilling insights into Gleaming the Cube, including a major appreciation of the filmography of actor Max Perlich & the ways in which the brilliant screenwriter Michael Tolkin uses a teen skateboard picture to dig into political issues of the time. Filled with laughter, this one is sure to be a new hit with listeners, & I know it'll brighten your day.Originally Posted on Patreon (8/13/23) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/87634121 Theme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music Archive Logo: KateGabrielle.com

And let's not forget that if you mention your love for Star Wars, Johnny will eagerly take credit for that, too, citing his proclamation of it being his favorite movie thirty years ago. On the other hand, if you had a terrible dining experience at a restaurant, it's Christopher's fault.In this episode, the boys give their Top 5 things they should do rather than be Laker and Jazz fans.

This week, I was the luckiest host because shortly after both Rob Belushi and Jordan Harper dropped into Phoenix separately this year, I was once again able to reunite on the pod with not one but two of my favorite guys. The closest you can get to know what it's like to hang out with Rob and Jordan in real life, I was honored to have them join me for a long, funny, vulnerable, surprisingly philosophical conversation about God, addiction, acting, and the highs and lows of gambling movies, including OWNING MAHOWNY, MISSISSIPPI GRIND, and ROUNDERS. So double down or split your aces and settle in because this is one of the richest and deepest season four episodes we've released so far. Bios: An actor, former host of the excellent Game Show Network series GET A CLUE, longtime improv teacher at Second City, plus a writer, producer, entrepreneur, and gifted impressionist, Rob Belushi is a loyal and caring friend, husband, father, son, and a man who wears many hats. In his last two appearances on Watch With Jen, Rob joined me to help cover the FX series MR. INBETWEEN and also went back in time to discuss a handful of Steven Soderbergh's best films from his late '90s, early aught heyday. And returning alongside Rob, we have Jordan Harper, who was the podcast's very first guest, the Edgar award-winning author of SHE RIDES SHOTGUN, LAST KING OF CALIFORNIA, and EVERYBODY KNOWS as well as the screenwriter and producer of such series as THE MENTALIST, GOTHAM, and HIGHTOWN. Although you've heard him on a wide variety of episodes so far including ones devoted to David Mamet, Preston Sturges, and others, most recently, we discussed the Hong Kong INFERNAL AFFAIRS series on the second to the last physical media episode in Season 3, and also the topic of Crime Families as well.

It's got it all, but most of all it's got deep insight. It's the book everybody's been waiting for.”—Michael Connelly"Just as Ellory mastered the atavistic heart of 1950's corruption, soJordan Harper has mastered articulating the Day-Glo Technicolor nightmare that is postmodern Los Angeles. EVERYBODY KNOWS is filled with ballsy movers and shakers, of course, but also plastic social media influencers, high-rent hoods, nihilistic cops, and the sorts of lost souls you'll never forget.EVERYBODY KNOWS is an absolute tour de force, a trip through an exclusive alluring Hell where everyone gets what they want and just what they deserve.”—SA Cosby, bestselling author of RAZORBLADE TEARS and BLACKTOP WASTELAND“What a ride! If it were possible for James Ellroy and James M. Cain to produce a bastard love child, it would be EVERYBODY KNOWSby Jordan Harper. Awash in substance abuse, sex and demented violence, this is the LA of a good drug trip turned very bad.”—Dennis Lehane, bestselling author of MYSTIC RIVER and SHUTTER ISLAND“With EVERYBODY KNOWS, Jordan Harper takes on the Beast—the monstrous, corrupt, insatiable mass of organs that eats the losers and feeds the winners in capitalist America, with Hollywood as its base of operations. Our guides to this world (our world) are two of its own dirty players, a celebrity publicist with killer instincts and an ex-cop goon for hire, looking for survival and money and maybe, if it's in the cards, a little bit of redemption.It's a juggernaut of a novel, fast and high-impact, with a sense of doomed humor and bright, sharp teeth.”—Steph Cha, LA Times Book Prize-winning author of YOUR HOUSE WILL PAY“Good lord, this book is fantastic. EVERYBODY KNOWSis one of the best LA noir novels I've ever read.The writing is astonishingly good. It's a wild, honest, sharp, and suspenseful ride, full of wry observations about the nature of power and the cost of being good in a bad, bad world." —Attica Locke, bestselling author of HEAVEN, MY HOME and BLUEBIRD, BLUEBIRD"Searing, timely, sprawling, EVERYBODY KNOWS pulls back Hollywood's velvet curtain, exposing the sordid machinations on which the industry runs and the seamy complicity which keeps it humming.This is L.A. noir at its most incendiary." —Megan Abbott, bestselling author of THE TURNOUT“Jordan Harper writers like he's L.A.'s avenging angel.EVERYBODY KNOWS is timely. It's timeless.It's a knockout punch.” —James Kestrel, author of the Edgar Award-winning FIVE DECEMBERS“EVERYBODY KNOWS is the best mystery novel I've read in years…Jordan Harper writes sentences, and in this case an entire book, that is both terrifying and exhilarating.” —James PattersonSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/one-heat-minute-productions/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Returning to the podcast today, we have a fan favorite and one of my besties - that's right it's our very first guest and my Pandemic Movie Club buddy - the Edgar award-winning author of "She Rides Shotgun" and "Love and Other Wounds," Jordan Harper. A screenwriter and producer of such shows as "The Mentalist" and "Gotham," who also crafted one of the most beautiful pilots for "L.A. Confidential," which CBS stupidly didn't pick up, currently, Jordan is back in the writers' room for the third season of the Starz series "Hightown." Additionally (and goddamned annoyingly, if you ask me), he finished not one but two novels during the pandemic and they're both excellent. The first book, called "The Last King of California" is a gritty work perfect for fans of "Shotgun" that will be published this year in the UK, and the second, the topical epic Tinseltown thriller "Everybody Knows" will hit shelves everywhere next year. I can't wait for you to read them both! Since we talk crime movies all the time, because - as Raymond Chandler might say - murder is his business, Jordan and I opted to put on on our fedoras and have some laughs this week at the genre's comedic side in this engagingly fast-paced eighty-eight-minute conversation. So join us for some friendly intrigue as we take a tour of the secret passageways of the movies "Deathtrap," "Clue," "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" and "So I Married An Axe Murder" and prove that (in the right hands) murder can be fun.Originally Posted on Patreon (3/15/22) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/63839960Logo: Kate Gabrielle (KateGabrielle.com)Theme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music Archive

Hello and welcome to Episode Thirty Nine of Page Turn: the Largo Public Library Podcast. I'm your host, Hannah! If you enjoy the podcast subscribe, tell a friend, or write us a review! The English Language Transcript can be found below But as always we start with Reader's Advisory! The Reader's Advisory for Episode Thirty Nine is Bastard by Max de Radigues. If you like Bastard you should also check out: She Rides Shotgun by Jordan Harper, Abbott by Saladin Ahmed, and Ghostman by Roger Hobbs. My personal favorite Goodreads list Light It Up is on is To Be Read 2020. Happy Reading Everyone Today's Library Tidbit comes to us from the Children's AND the Teen Departments and is on tea and The Tea Dragon series by K. O'Neill. Let's start with what is tea. Tea is a brewed drink made from the leaves of the camellia sinensis and camellia assamica shrubs. Tea is best when it is made from the youngest leaf buds but you can make tea from older leaves as well. Tea as we know it goes through several different processes to turn it from the fresh leaves to the dried product we know and that some of us love. I did plan on going through and describing the entire process of how tea goes from fresh leaves to dried tea waiting to be brewed, but it's really complicated and very dry and honestly it just doesn't make for great audio. There is a good flowchart on the wikipedia page for processing tea that I will attempt to add to the show notes and you can all check that out if you are interested. Tea Processing Flowchart! The short version is that depending on the type of tea you want as the end product you will subject your fresh tea leaves to various different processes. Remember, almost all tea comes from the same plant. Some of the processes that leaves go through to become the tea we recognize are: wilting, bruising, oxidation, fixation, shaping, drying, and curing. Not every tea goes through these processes and there are variations within the different processes that effect the outcome and create different teas. For instance, the type of bruising or level of oxidation that occurs. In addition to tea there are also tisanes which are most commonly now referred to as herbal teas. Herbal teas are made from herbs, flowers, spices, and other plant materials and brewed in a similar manner to tea. Because these are not made with tea most herbal teas do not naturally have caffeine in them making them a popular choice for people who cannot have caffeine due to health or religious reasons or preference. On July 13th the Children's Department and the Teen Department are doing crafts and programs centering around The Tea Dragon series by K. O'Neill. The Tea Dragon series is ostensibly children's graphic novels, but all ages have enjoyed them. Right now there are 3 books in the series with the third The Tea Dragon Tapestry just being released last month. K. O'Neill is an illustrator and graphic novelist from New Zealand. Their works include, Aquicorn Cove, the Tea Dragon series, and Princess Princess Ever After. Their writing and illustrations are gentle and soothing with a strong emphasis on environmentalism and community. While being heart-warming and cute their works do not shy away from heavier topics, such as parental death, climate destruction, and feelings of isolation and loss. While the plots of the Tea Dragon series are very good and the art is amazing and detailed, the big draw for most people is just how stinking adorable the dragons are! In the Tea Dragon series each type/variety of tea or tisane has a small “tea dragon” associated with the variety. Hibiscus is a fluffy pink dragon with wings, chamomile is a sleepy yellow, and jasmine is a sleek green, to describe a very few. Because the series is so popular with our patrons and our staff two different departments stepped up to create fun take home crafts. The children's crafts are available through registration only and are...

Returning to Watch With Jen today is one of the podcast's most popular and frequent guests - my good friend and Pandemic Movie Club buddy Jordan Harper.An Edgar award-winning crime writer of the remarkable novel She Rides Shotgun and the terrific book of short stories Love and Other Wounds, Jordan also works in Hollywood as a TV writer and producer and has been behind such series as The Mentalist, Gotham, and Hightown. He also created a stunning pilot for CBS of L.A. Confidential that was just celebrated at the ATX Festival as well.And since the most frequent feedback I receive whenever Jordan is on is compliments about our chemistry and banter (as evidenced in the David Mamet episode), it's only fitting that this time around, we ditched the crime genre in favor of screwball comedies.Breaking down the subversive wit, ingenuity, and downright horniness of four famous Preston Sturges movies, we discuss Barbara Stanwyck's powers of seduction as a con-woman in The Lady Eve, the lessons Hollywood can and has learned from Sullivan's Travels, the chaotic confidence of The Palm Beach Story, and the brilliance of Eddie Bracken yelling "Spots!" in The Miracle of Morgan's Creek.Theme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music ArchiveOriginally Posted on Patreon (7/1/21) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/53174633

This week's special guest is author and screenwriter Jordan Harper.  He's worked on The Mentalist, Gotham, and his debut novel - She Rides Shotgun - is one to watch out for. We talk movies, Stephen King, Samurai assassins and more.   In the wrap up, both crime writers discuss new releases and compliment Mark Billingham. Again.

The show examines the cross-section of political apparatuses, colonial superpower wrangling, and Mr Mann's riff on the "great American hero." The final episode - once again will feature Mr Mann to unpack his intentions with the film in the conception and orchestration of its grand ending.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/one-heat-minute-productions/donations

“There was a desert wind blowing that night. It was one of those hot dry Santa Anas that come down through the mountain passes and curl your hair and make your nerves jump and your skin itch. On nights like that every booze party ends in a fight. Meek little wives feel the edge of the carving knife and study their husbands' necks. Anything can happen. You can even get a full glass of beer at a cocktail lounge.”—Raymond Chandler, Red WindLos Angeles.The kind of city where anything that can happen, does happen. And everything that does happen, right and wrong, seems to belong here—it couldn’t happen anywhere else. There’s an air of beauty and shame here, a twisted knot of the city’s glory and its sins bound tight together—unlike the comparatively ancient New York, say, L.A.’s sins are still recent, the wounds still scabbed and unhealed across its golden-hued, suntanned skin. Missing neighborhoods, missing gangs, missing loves, missing lives. In this city, turn any corner, walk down any mean street, and you’ll find a mystery, cruel and enticing and magic and heartbreaking, waiting for you there.And that’s just one of the topics touched upon between our host and today’s guest, Jordan Harper, whose epic, feature-length conversation rumbles from such topic’s as L.A. crime, race-based prison gangs, the history of Los Angeles land use and abuse, noir’s unique relationship to L.A., James Ellroy, adapting difficult novels, Jordan’s wrestling with the PTA oeuvre, and much, much more (including where to find the best BBQ in Missouri). About the Guest - JORDAN HARPERJordan Harper is the Edgar Award-winning author of the incredible SHE RIDES SHOTGUN and LOVE AND OTHER WOUNDS. He is also a television writer and producer, and wrote/developed the late, great, and unreleased L.A CONFIDENTIAL TV series, which had a pilot so perfect that its demise is final, conclusive proof of God's absence.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/one-heat-minute-productions/donations
