Podcasts about unprintable

LitReactor, as we know it, is closing down. I'm reposting the episodes I hosted for Unprintable (their podcast) over here on The ARC Party, so that they don't go away when the site shuts down. This is the fifth of six episodes - a deep dive into grammar featuring LR's managing editor, and two LR columnists who both have written and/or taught classes on the topic of grammar. One more to go after this. I'm rounding out the series with my discussion with Rob Hart and Josh Chaplinsky - where they talk about how the site started, and some of the highlights of the first ten years. So keep an eye out for that, and also for my 2024 Horror Preview episode featuring Becky Spratford and Emily Hughes. It's not to be missed!

It's the third of six LitReactor Archive episodes. In this episode, Sadie Hartmann (Mother Horror), and Becky Spratford (The Horror Maven/RA For All) Joined my on LitReactor's Unprintable podcast to talk about the art of book reviews. If you were ever curious about what goes in to a book review, or what some of the dos and don'ts are, this is the episode for you! Hear a social media influencer talk about her take on reviews and how it's evolved over the years. Hear about a librarian who writes reviews for other librarians. And from me, who just did it on a podcast for a damn decade. I'll be posting three more of these! So keep your peepers peeled for episodes about Interviews, Grammar, and LitReactor's 10th anniversary. Thanks for supporting me, and I hope everyone has the best possible holiday season.

With the lights at LitReactor going dark for good in the coming weeks, I wanted to find a way to archive the handful of episodes that I recorded from them back in 2021. This is the first of six episodes, where I “re-air” the talks I hosted on their podcast, Unprintable. In this episode, Rob Hart joins me as a cohost to speak with Alma Katsu about her then-newly released book RED WIDOW, and also her then-upcoming book THE FERVOR. It's a great conversation, and I hope that if you haven't read Alma's work before, you're inspired to now. She writes great historical horror, as well as epsionage books! Coming soon, I'll be posting the other five episodes that I recorded with Unprintable, including an interview with SA Cosby, episodes on Grammar, Interviews, Reviews, and a 10th anniversary retrospective with Rob Hart and Josh Chaplinsky. Also, this week I'm recording an episode with Becky Spratford and Emily Hughes where we look ahead to our most anticipated books of the first half of 2024. As you can see, lots to come soon from Arc Party! I hope everyone has a great holiday season, enjoys some throwback episodes, and that you're all as excited as I am for what's coming in 2024!

This is the second of six ARC Party episodes, where I'm reposting my small run of episodes of their Unprintable podcast. As LitReactor is closing down, I wanted to give my episodes a place to live on, because they were great conversations that should not be lost to the ages. In this episode, Rob Hart joined to cohost an interview with SA Cosby, about his then-latest book RAZORBLADE TEARS. Rob was also on the cusp of the release of PARADOX HOTEL, so there was a good deal of discussion about that as well. This episode originally posted on Unprintable on 2/15/2022Coming soon:There are four more episodes of the LitReactor ARChives to come! Grammar, Interviews, Reviews, and the LR 10th Anniversary episode. Also, tomorrow I'm recording the ARC Party Look Ahead episode for the first half of 2024, with Becky Spratford and Emily Hughes. Very excited for this! Get full access to The ARC Party at www.thearcparty.com/subscribe

The narrative of Details Are Unprintable primarily unfolds over a seven-month period from October 1943 to April 1944—from the moment the body of twenty-two-year old Patricia Burton Lonergan is discovered in the bedroom of her New York City Beekman Hill apartment, to the arrest of her husband of two years, Wayne Lonergan, for her murder, and his subsequent trial and conviction. But this story goes back in time to the 1920s, when Wayne Lonergan grew up in Toronto and then forward to his post-prison life following his deportation to Canada. It is the chronicle of Lonergan in denial as a bisexual or gay man living in an intolerant and morally superior heterosexual world; and of Patricia, rich and entitled, a seeker of attention, who loved a night out on the town—all set against the fast pace of New York's ostentatious café society.Part True Crime and part a social history of New York City in the 1940s, this book transports readers to the New York World's Fair of 1939 when Patricia's father William Burton first encountered Lonergan; the Stork Club, 21 Club, and El Morocco to experience with Patricia a night of drinking champagne cocktails and dancing; and the muggy New York courtroom where Lonergan's fate was decided.What truly happened on that tragic night on October 24, 1943? Should we accept Lonergan's confession at face value as the jury did? Or was he indeed a victim of physical and mental abuse by the state prosecutors and the police, as he maintained for the rest of his life? This book considers these, and other, key questions. DETAILS ARE UNPRINTABLE-Wayne Lonergan and the Sensational Cafe Society Murder-Allan Levine

With a lens refocused Cafe Society and Wayne Lonergan, Laura and I discuss the case with photographer Melanie Pullen
