48. Ralph Steadman
Ralph Steadman is a UK satirist, artist, cartoonist, illustrator, and writer whose work is synonymous with the counterculture of the 1970s. Renowned for his collaborations with iconic American writer Hunter S. Thompson, he formed an unlikely duo that created "Gonzo" journalism. This lifelong collaboration included the now-legendary Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, originally published in Rolling Stone magazine, which has since become a cult classic. The subject of numerous books and documentaries, at 84 he still turns his keen and critical eye to politicians and popular culture.
He and I discuss nude models, the British tradition of cartooning, his first meeting with Hunter S. Thompson, American Presidential politics, suicide, pre-planning memorials, the Gonzo fist, fax machines, Travis Scott, dirty water drawings, animals, passing over and God, Sigmund Freud, Leonardo da Vinci, Johnny Depp, learning to draw, and cremation. A bonus of this podcast is not only hearing him recite texts he has written, but also describing some of his iconic friends in their accents!
