HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH FLIPS THE SCRIPT ON BRET EASTON ELLIS IN BOMBSHELL NEW LIVE EPISODE

In an enthralling new episode of HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH – the podcast renowned for its deep dives into esoteric cultural topics, news, and events with an unmistakable edge – your host Poolhouse and special guest co-host Q from the influential Thots & Prayers podcast, have joined forces with to cast a new light on the iconic author, Bret Easton Ellis.

The episode explores the author's work not just as literary talent but as a cultural phenomenon, framing Ellis as an avatar–and possibly architectural magus–for the disaffected, Chtonic zeitgeist of the information age.

From his kabalistic prose to the esoteric and darkly energetic themes that permeate his narratives, the hosts dissect Ellis’s ability to reflect the dead-eyed dark energy of the abyss, mirroring the culturally Satanic nuances of the MTV generation and beyond. Ellis's work is also analyzed for its profound literary impact, and the mysterious aura that surrounds his time at Bennington College.

Further delving into Ellis's personal life, the episode touches upon his complicated relationship with a millennial ex-boyfriend, navigating through the complexities and allegations that have on occasion made headlines–but more often, seem to have evaded the spotlight.

With lively discussions and insights from previous Backklash guests, the podcast pushes the edge of discursive boundaries while it maintains a balanced viewpoint, ensuring a respectful, yet critical examination of Ellis's influence and legacy–unlike anything else you are likely to hear.

Poolhouse and Q offer listeners a unique perspective on Bret Easton Ellis, encouraging a reevaluation of the narratives about his life and his works that we’ve come to accept. Tune in to join the conversation and explore the murky depths of the dark and creative mind of a literary genius.

Forget HBO….it’s Showtime (at the Apollo)(thanks to Poolhouse )
