    And Now We Drink Episode 469: With James Barthole Aug 20, 2026
    Show notes

    On this episode of And Now We Drink, Matt Slayer sits down with industry veteran, actor, producer, radio host, and horror filmmaker James Bartholet for a wild, tangent-filled conversation that moves from old-school talk radio to modern industry realities, award-show culture, and the glory of grindhouse cinema.

    James reflects on his decades in broadcasting, what he learned from the talk radio era, and why live caller interaction can be both a ratings boost and a minefield. He also dives into his current slate of projects, including Scissors Chapter Two, Murder Motel, horror convention appearances, and his long-running show Inside the Industry with James Bartholet. Along the way, he shares behind-the-scenes stories from low-budget horror sets, including a chocolate syrup blood gag that went very wrong

    Matt and James get candid about the changing economics of entertainment, from VHS box covers and fan conventions to tube sites, OF, performer expectations, parasocial relationships, and whether performers could ever realistically unionize. They also talk about the importance of respecting performers at conventions and supporting the work you enjoy.

    The conversation swerves into Hollywood memories, including Joan Rivers, Keanu Reeves, River Phoenix, Britney Murphy, the Viper Room, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame debates, disappearing Los Angeles landmarks, Red Lobster biscuits, dating dealbreakers, and why being present for real conversation still matters. It’s funny, nostalgic, blunt, and unmistakably And Now We Drink.

    And Now We Drink Episode 468: With Simon King pt 3 Aug 06, 2026
    Show notes

    Matt Slayer sits down with Canadian comedian Simon King for a fast, filthy, and surprisingly thoughtful ride through comedy, chaos, politics, and the weird machinery of modern life. What starts with jokes about OF, The Hub, comedy specials, AI-written eulogies, and s***ide hotline telethons quickly turns into a sharp, darkly funny conversation about what it means to be a working comic in a world run by algorithms, bots, and questionable incentives. Simon talks about touring in the U.S. as a Canadian, the strange instability of modern America, border anxiety, and why Canada’s relationship with the States has shifted from neighborly familiarity to genuine concern. He and Matt dig into the realities of comedy today: crowd work clips, viral fame, bought followers, club economics, content pressure, and why Simon prefers “artisan small batch” audiences who actually know what they came to see. Along the way, Matt and Simon riff on stolen art, Lenin’s body, mutton, corporate gigs, Saudi money, guns, masculinity, generational change, and whether humanity has any shot at making it another hundred years. It’s an episode full of grim punchlines, honest self-reflection, and the kind of unruly tangents that make And Now We Drink feel less like an interview and more like eavesdropping on two funny people trying to make sense of a burning world.

    And Now We Drink Episode 467: With Christy Love pt 3 Jul 30, 2026
    Show notes

    On this episode of And Now We Drink, Matt Slayer sits down with Christy Love for a wide-ranging, unpredictable conversation that moves from bourbon and Bible study to corn, prison ministry, podcasting, and the meaning of forgiveness. Christy opens up about growing up with an alcoholic father who later became a pastor, her Korean mother’s deep faith, and the Pentecostal experience that shaped her own spiritual life.

    Matt and Christy dig into theology from very different perspectives, with Matt bringing atheist curiosity and Christy offering candid, non-preachy reflections on sin, salvation, science, and why she believes relationships matter more than judgment. Christy also speaks openly about her husband’s incarceration, the crime from his youth, her decision to choose forgiveness, and the prison church and Bible studies he has helped build behind bars.

    The conversation also explores Christy’s work in the industry, her new podcast In Bed with Christy Love, her upcoming memoir and why she sees podcasting as both therapy and a way to reclaim her own story. Along the way, Matt breaks down the brutal realities of podcasting, fame, OnlyFans, camming during the pandemic, and surviving trolls with humor.

    From LA restaurants and Michelin stars to Japan, Cuba, Oktoberfest, dating norms, toxic relationships, and whether someone would sleep with a clone, this episode is funny, thoughtful, explicit, and surprisingly philosophical—exactly the kind of chaotic honesty And Now We Drink does best.

    And Now We Drink Episode 466: With Derek Kage pt 3 Jul 23, 2026
    Show notes

    Matt Slayer welcomes award-winning performer Derek Kage back for a rare third appearance on And Now We Drink, and the result is exactly the kind of unfiltered, hilarious, and unexpectedly thoughtful chaos listeners come for. Over dirty martinis, Matt and Derek bounce from Amazon’s ever-expanding empire and digital surge pricing to the strange convenience of modern isolation, grocery delivery, and why self-checkout can feel like a moral dilemma. Derek opens up about an intensely busy year in the industry, working across gay, straight, and trans scenes, winning major awards, and navigating the physical realities of performing while dealing with illness, prostatitis, antibiotics, and the realities of testing. He also offers a candid PSA about the importance of informed consent on set. The conversation gets wildly graphic and funny as Derek recounts scene disasters, “horse market” parties, and the surreal experience of being a gay performer in straight gangb**g scenes with performers he admires. Along the way, Matt and Derek trade stories about vasectomies, aging bodies, metal bands, 9/11 memories, dry counties, school rebellion, and much more. Equal parts filthy, funny, reflective, and politically charged, this episode is a deep dive into Derek Kage’s world—and a reminder that no topic is off-limits once the drinks start flowing.
