Filmmaker, archivist, podcaster and cinema connoisseur Nicholas McCarthy joins me to discuss his fabulous & moving 6-part docu-podcast, The Vanity Project. In it, we follow him along his decades-long quest to solve the mystery of Student Confidential, a film that was financed, written, directed, scored, edited by and starring the elusive Richard Horian. Who was he? Who is he? What was he like to work with? Where the hell IS he?  And does anyone know where the original film elements are?

We also get into the deep magic & influence of UHF channels in the 80s, cult films culture, Cop & 1/2 and much much more.
