David Rysdahl & Lily Sullivan on Soulm8te, AI Addiction, and Constructed Femininity
David Rysdahl and Lily Sullivan join Kyle Meredith to dig into Soulm8te, talking about how the M3GAN universe uses horror to explore grief, addiction, and the ways technology fills emotional voids.

Jay Chandrasekhar on Super Troopers 3, Bringing Back R-Rated Comedy, and Brown Supremacist
Jay Chandrasekhar wants Super Troopers 3 to help bring loud, R-rated comedy back to theaters, and he’s not interested in turning it into another political shouting match. Talking with Kyle Meredith, the Broken Lizard filmmaker explains why the new sequel plays like Meet the Parents meets Super Troopers, how Farva’s Indian wedding opened the door for some seriously edgy jokes, and why one gag still went too far to survive. He also gets into the Dukes of Hazzard-style car jump, Mac getting frozen in maple syrup, the future of Beerfest, and finally putting his decades of standup on camera for Brown Supremacist. Nine films in, Broken Lizard is still chasing the big laugh and leaving just enough bait for the studio to order another round.Listen to Jay Chandrasekhar chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Rewind: Guster and Phoenix on Reinvention, Escaping Nostalgia, and the Strange Side of Pop
This Rewind episode brings together two conversations about bands refusing to let a familiar sound become a comfortable trap. Guster’s Ryan Miller, speaking with Kyle Meredith in 2016, digs into Evermotion, moving beyond ’90s nostalgia, and reinventing the band through new instruments and studio experimentation, while Phoenix’s Thomas Mars looks back from 2017 on how Italian pop, cryptic English, Bowie, Prince, and getting bored with his own voice shaped Ti Amo. Both arrive at a similar place, making pop music that sounds joyful on the surface while something much stranger moves underneath.Show your support for Kyle Meredith With by making sure to like, review, and subscribe to KMW wherever you get your podcasts, and keep up to date with all our series by following the Consequence Podcast Network.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Rupert Grint, Seidi Haarla, & Hanna Bergholm on Nightborn, Parenthood Horror, and Finnish Folklore
Rupert Grint, Seidi Haarla, and director Hanna Bergholm join Kyle Meredith to unpack the unsettling heart of Nightborn, where the real horror starts with the emotional chaos of new parenthood before Finnish folklore creeps in. Bergholm talks about channeling the forbidden emotions of early motherhood into the story, Haarla discusses exploring the shadows that come with becoming a parent, and Grint reveals he was expecting his own second child while filming, making the film’s anxieties hit even closer to home. They also get into building the couple’s intimacy through dance rehearsals, using animatronics to keep the baby mysterious, and why sometimes what’s scariest is everything no one warns you about after bringing a child home.Listen to Rupert Grint, Seidi Haarla, and Hanna Bergholm chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Octavia Spencer, Hannah Waddingham, Tessa Coates, and Matt Miller on Ride or Die and Rewriting the Action-Comedy Rules
Ride or Die starts with the best kind of best-friend problem: one of them is an international assassin and that’s not even the whole mess. Octavia Spencer, Hannah Waddingham, Tessa Coates, and Matt Miller talk with Kyle Meredith about the Prime Video series, from Waddingham finally getting to go full action star and Spencer digging into the friendship at the center of it, to Coates building a female action story that sends the assassin back for her best friend instead of the typical husband or kid. Miller gets into making eight episodes feel like one big globe-trotting movie, even if most of Europe was secretly Prague, while everyone circles the bigger win here of “women of a certain age” getting to be funny, complicated, dangerous, and completely in charge of the ride.Listen to Octavia Spencer, Hannah Waddingham, Tessa Coates, and Matt Miller chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Rewind: Kurt Vile and Kevin Morby on City Songs, Strange Fame, and Writing Your Way Out
Kurt Vile and Kevin Morby both know how to make city songs feel lonely, funny, half-haunted, and still totally wide open. Vile talks with Kyle Meredith about 2016’s B'lieve I’m Goin Down, being cartooned into a stoner squirrel on HBO’s Animals, fame arriving one weird step at a time, and writing songs that leave room for everyone else to move in. Morby then discusses 2017’s City Music, turning New York isolation into fiction from out in Los Angeles, building “1234” out of the Ramones and Jim Carroll, and leaving bands behind so he could try on every suit that fit. Two songwriters chasing loose ends, street noise, and the next version of themselves.Show your support for Kyle Meredith With by making sure to like, review, and subscribe to KMW wherever you get your podcasts, and keep up to date with all our series by following the Consequence Podcast Network.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Tori Amos on In Times of Dragons, Democracy, and Finding the Fire Inside Silent All These Years
Tori Amos talks with Kyle Meredith about In Times of Dragons, the concept record she built out of democracy cracking in real time, dangerous men behind the curtain, Celtic gods, witches, daughters, and the younger self who wrote "Silent All These Years." She also gets into writing fast, bringing Matt Chamberlain and John Evans back into the room, how her daughter Tash helped unlock the daughter’s role in the story, and why older records like Strange Little Girls can sneak back into the cupboard when the songs need the right ingredients. Heavy stuff, sure, but Tori still makes the dragon fight sound like a spell you can hum.Listen to Tori Amos chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Jane Kaczmarek on Malcolm in the Middle, The Boroughs, and Finding Her Next Act
Jane Kaczmarek talks with Kyle Meredith about returning to Malcolm in the Middle for Life’s Still Unfair, reuniting with Bryan Cranston, and why Erik Per Sullivan deciding not to come back as Dewey might be the most quietly heroic thing of all. She also digs into The Boroughs, playing Alfred Molina’s wife for the fifth time, getting to die to "Thunder Road," and why this latest chapter has her thinking about love, theater, artichokes, Led Zeppelin, and the very real power of knowing when to say, “I’m good.”Listen to Jane Kaczmarek chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.
