This week on Talking to Ghosts we welcome back our biggest supporters and friends, Alex Kennedy and Bruce Lord from I Die: You Die (and We Have A Technical podcast)!
This is the final episode of the Talking to Ghosts podcast. Thank you so much for listening and supporting us over the years. It meant a lot to us to be able to share our interviews and reviews with so many people.
We are off on a new adventure together, which you can find out more about at berm.world!
This week on the podcast we talk to author, journalist, and DJ Emilly Prado. We chat about her new book, "Funeral For Flaca," which is out now from Future Tense Books.

As a reminder, the next episode will be our last episode of the podcast. We're starting a contemporary arts magazine called Berm in 2022. To find out more about Berm, and to get updates on it's release, check out the Berm website.
This week on the Talking to Ghosts podcast, we have Venezuelan-American artist Lala Drona. Through painting, video, and performance art, Lala's work addresses digital spaces and the female gaze. We talked about her video The Box, how women's bodies are used as currency on the internet, and how to be patient with yourself.
There is a CONTENT WARNING for this episode - from 44:45-45:15 there is discussion of incest and rape in a conversation about feminism in France. It is brief and does not carry on through the rest of the conversation.
The best place to check out Lala's work is on her official website.

This week on the Talking to Ghosts podcast we have doom metal duo (debateably a 9-piece, actually) Vile Creature! We were excited to talk to them after the recent release of their Kitty "Paperdoll" cover for The Flenser Nu Metal compilation, which is available now for digital purchase or as part of The Flenser's Series 3 subscription.
Vile Creature is a great band with great folks. Michael was made to watch The Pagemaster film, we performed a focus group regarding the Juicy Mosh Shorts, and talked a lot about how to make time for creativity while also running a business.
For more information about Vile Creature, check out thier official website. Their newest full length, "Glory, Glory! Apathy Took Helm!" is available via their Bandcamp.

We had a great time talking about transitioning to teaching virtually and how the PSU staff had to come together pretty quickly to adapt to the pandemic shutdown. We also talked about the design-world changes in Portland, Sonic Ocean Breeze, and how zines have become accessible ways for people to get their work out there!

This week on the show we have Jaamil Olawale Kosoko, who is a multi-spirited Nigerian-American poet, curator, and performance artist whose work is rooted in embodied ritual practice, poetics, Black critical studies, and queer theory. We spoke to Jaamil about using the pandemic as a time to slow down, turning from the investigation of Black Suffering to Black Joy, and their upcoming projects: Syllabus For Black Love and Black Body Amnesia.
Jaamil's work is best found on their website or, for more frequent updates, his Instagram.

This week on Talking to Ghosts we are knocking out a bunch of the reviews we wish we had time to write. 2021 has been a banger of a year for content so far, so we'd thought we'd spend some time going through some of our favorites.

This week on Talking to Ghosts we are re-running our 2019 interview with Vancouver techno-EBM friends Sigsaly! Since we spoke with them, they have released a single and new record both called Lasting Effects, which you can pick up on their bandcamp. We talked with Sigsaly about performing as Koban and the switch to a more minimal techno/ebm vibe, playing the community center in high school, and finding a new and exciting audience.
