I am on this! Talking MOONSTRUCK with some (@gutomako@everybody_cares@vic_alejandro_ ) of the folks at BWDR. Listen if you want to hear how I fit "up his own butt" into film criticism:
just want to be at a book event stuck in the crowd at the back, holding a plastic cup of the worst wine known to humanity, too hot in my coat, openly weeping at what's being read while strangers pretend not to notice
can you believe the new season of one of my favorite podcasts is hosted my one of my favorite writers and focuses on one of the best years in music and also i got to work on it?? go listen, every episode is just so good
Lost Notes: 1980 is out everywhere today. Here are some early reviews of what my voice sounds like from a group text of old friends. Also, a photo I love of Grace Jones, taken by David Corio in October, 1980. I'm proud of this & I hope you'll listen.

L.A. Taco stands in full support of @josie_huang, @kpcc, and @laist. We condemn the unjust violence against her by @lasdhq. We denounce the misinformation continuing to be spread by @LACoSheriff regarding the incident despite there being clear video footage showing otherwise.
not a totally unbiased recommendation but you should definitely check out the trailer for the new season of Lost Notes and then listen to all of it when it drops on the 24th, truly each story is such a great listen
Some News: I'm hosting the new season of Lost Notes, for @kcrw. It focuses on 1980. 7 audio essays/stories about the cultural, social, and musical conditions that impacted the opening of the decade. Everywhere on 9/24. Hope you'll listen.
