Fang: The Movie

My guest didn't let Asperger's get in the way of writing and directing his own horror movie.

Listen on your favorite podcasting platform here.

Duration: 23 minutes.

Richard Burgin is the writer and director of the upcoming horror movie, Fang.  He and I talk about some of the obstacles he encountered while putting together his first movie.  From problems on the set to adjusting to working with the cast, he managed to film this movie in just 23 days.

I ask him about what it was like to overcome the social awkwardness normally associated with Asperger's.  We chat about how he landed a cult icon in horror movies as one of the actors for the film.  He also gives a sneak peek at a future film that it's in the works.

It's a great discussion with a man who had a plan and executed it.  Enjoy my Q-on-1 discussion with Richard and please feel free to share this as to inspire others.

Movie summary: It's winter in Chicago and Billy Cochran (Dylan LaRay) can't stop alienating the people around him. His mother Gina (Lynn Lowry) is in and out of the hospital and her mind is breaking down, caught between her glory days as a Southern belle and her current state of decay. 

One night, Billy gets an unexpected visitor: a rat that springs out of his bathroom and bites him. At first, everything seems okay. Billy comes home, drowsy from the tetanus shot, and bonds with Gina's lovely new caregiver Myra (Jess Paul). Then the rat fur appears. It grows out of Billy's skin, then goes away like it was never there. The more Billy looks in the mirror and scratches, the more he's forced to face the unthinkable: he might be turning into a rat. 

Billy is plunged into a waking nightmare where he slowly discovers the truth about himself as he unleashes the ferocious depths of the human and rodent soul.

I was thrilled to be a guest on the Audaciously Me Podcast, hosted by the always energetic, Ashley D!

Listen on your favorite podcasting platform here.

COVID-19 has put a huge clamp on some of the holiday traditions in this country. Halloween is the day where it's cool to be a little fearful of things. You watch a scary movie, visit a haunted house or something of that nature. 

But what about the things that are scary in real life (IRL)? 

• What will happen after the presidential election? 
• Will there be a race war and/or rioting? 
• How afraid of you of being laid off in this volatile economy? 
• What is it like for a black person when someone calls the cops on them? 

Real life horrors will be the topic of discussion on this week's live call-in Talk 2 Q Radio Show! "No experts. Just opinions."

What Is "Breadcrumbing"?

Fellas, how many times have you seen thirst trap posts on Facebook from women?  Ladies, how many times has that one dude sporadically sent you a DM just to stay in your conscious?  

Listen on your favorite podcasting platform here.

Duration: 71 minutes.

These are baiting and dating tactics or what some people call "breadcrumbing".  

It's done primarily on social media and breadcrumbing is a tactic that people use to string you along until they can decide if and when they will ever actually ask you out.  It's basically leading someone on by sending them sporadic messages and/or commenting on social media posts in a way to keep you interested in them.  However, it's always vague and non-committal.  

Tonight, we'll discuss how to recognize breadcrumbing examples and not fall into that trap.

Also on the show, Trump is back in the White House after a few days in the hospital.  However, so many people connected to him have tested positive for COVID including his press secretary.  There are a ton of theories on this and I know that my Show Legends will not have a shotage of opinons of their own as we discuss Trump in the news once again.

Q-on-1 w/Author, Tracee Hanna

I have a chat with the author of erotica fiction and more!

Duration: 25 minutes.

Tracee Hanna is a captivating author who is just as entertaining as her books.  She has written many books, but really hit the map when her first publication was published in an anthology by legendary erotica fiction author, Zane.  And you have to be an awesome writer to be featured by another awesome writer!

We talk about how tragedy, out of all things, led to her being writer of erotica fiction.  I ask her if she has to be in a sexy mood to write sexy material.  She gives a ton of background of the inspirations that led to many of the stories she's written in her adult life.

We discuss these things and more as her and I have a lot of fun on this Q-on-1 edition of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show!
