Are you ready to step into the shadows and explore the mysterious world of film noir with our guest, Eddie Muller, host of TCM's Noir Alley? Savor the intrigue as we discuss his involvement in film preservation, his enlightening books, and his thoughts on the future of TCM. We also delve into the rise of interest in noir and the timeless appeal of classic cinema.

Brace yourself for a twist as we mix classic films with modern mixology. Muller, a trained bartender, shares his passion for film noir through his cocktail creations inspired by noir classics, detailed in his book "NOIR BAR."

Then we discuss a refreshing perspective on introducing young minds to the world of noir through Muller's new "Kids Noir" book, "KITTY FERAL AND THE CASE OF THE MARSHMELLOW MONKEY." We tackle the art of writing for children without condescending to them and the importance of introducing them to black and white storytelling.

We round off the discussion by navigating the future of TCM in light of its recent acquisition by Discovery. So, buckle up for a thrilling journey filled with insightful conversations, nostalgia, and a dash of noir.
