Jeffrey Halls aka Dr El Suavo goes right back to virtually the beginning of the Archives timeline. 
Jeff and his partner Julie were the team behind one of the most maverick independent touring companies “Intense Touring”. 
The first person to bring Mr Bungle and Mike Patton to Australia, Nirvana (before anyone knew who they were), The Damned, Impaled Nazarene, Mark Of Cain, Neil Hamburger, Canned Hamm, Faxed Head, Phantom Surfers, Secret Chiefs, Blowfly, Crispin Glover and so many more. 
Jeff and Julie went beyond what promotors usually do, taking bands into their own home, creating intense personal relationships and sharing the experience with their friends and fellow performers. 
Why that is how the Mu Mesons got to support Mike Patton. 
Remaining vehemently outside of the system and with no support from funding bodies. 
Intense Touring brought some of the most unusual, cutting edge and profound acts to Australian shores. 
They say inside every promotor is a stilted performer, well over the course of time that repression lifted and manifested as one of the worlds most frightening parlour magicians. 
Jeff became Dr El Suavo. 
He has toured internationally and extensively within Australia as the support act to Neil Hamburger. 
He has a tendency to polarise audiences with his most unique blend of standup comedy and parlour magic, you can either take him or leave him but my god he has also released two albums under that moniker. 
I cannot count how many times I have stood on stage, wiped my brow in exasperation and said “Ladies and Gentleman I now present: Dr El Suavo”

Time serves as the ultimate judgment upon the impact and power of ones art.

Now nearly 60 years later people are beginning to realise the philosophical

and poetic depth within the writings of Joseph Stefano. Stefano was the man

who adapted Robert Bloch's `novel into the screen play that became Alfred Hitchcock's

"Psycho". More importantly he was the unsung genius behind the bulk of the episodes of

the small screens first season of the science fiction anthology series "Outer Limits".

Never before had the human condition been explored so profoundly than this imaginative

foray into science fiction and fantasy and gothic horror. (I will argue that Rod Serling came

close but Stefano took it to a whole new level)

Radical in his approach, constantly outwitting the censors Joseph elevated the intellect

of his audiences by serving allegories that danced macabre and pinched the nerve of our

psychic disorders. All these decades later historians and critics are singing his praises.

Dan Rash not only has sung his praises but has taken it one step further by doing an

immaculate job of editing and curating some of Stefano's most astounding shooting scripts

for Outer Limits including quite a few that never made it to air.

We were honoured to have the opportunity to speak to Dan about the passionate drive that

led to his forth coming book that celebrates Stefano's writings. Dan is not just a fan but has

now concreted his role as a film historian in the construction of the book "From The Inner Mind

to the Outer Limits Volume One". If the first print run of 500 sells out then a second volume will

become a reality, lets make sure this happens. Link below.

In 2006 he won the Walkley Award for Broadcast Interviewing for a series of three interviews - Petrol Sniffing, Pilltesting and The Cost of War while he was also commended in the same category of the Walkleys in 2005.

He currently presents The Drum on ABC News 24 and is a reporter at Lateline.

No jazz cigarettes for these two. Dave Graney & Clare Moore are an exemplary couple.

Two of Australias most profound/extraordinary musicians & performers that have travelled and traversed many bands and many lands.

The Moodists, the White Buffaloes, the Coral Snakes & the Dave Graney show are just a few of the incantations you will at least find Dave appearing in.

Today, going under the title of The Lurid Yellow Mist inspired directly from the Jack Arnold film “The Incredible Shrinking Man”

Dave & Clare form an unstoppable duo that takes music and its lyricism and arrangements to the levels thought unachievable.

Like Serge Gainsbourg, Lee Hazlewood & Roy Orbison with the satirical sting of possibly Kim Fowley at his best moments, they make pop music sound like an opera.

There love for each other is evident in their creativity, and you will find them at some of the most obscure locations this country can offer to perform.

Literally standing head and shoulders above the rest and erring on the side of humility, they remain the perfect example of magical creativity can be.

Always supportive of the underdog and we guess that is why they have ended up on the Naked World podcast.

Having performed with some of the greatest names in the musical arena internationally as well as local, they still find time for Jay Katz & Miss Death.

Dave is not a just a raconteur, performer and screen star but also an incredibly incisive author, who has bared his soul in print.

Their humour and generosity is evident in all they do, and with over 40 albums between the two of them in the bag, their output is relentless

We hope you enjoy this candid casual conversation as much as we did and possibly pick up a few tips on how to survive a pandemic with masterful ease.

Even though their retro tv viewing is questionable, their hearts are not.

A big warm thank you to Dave & Clare for your constant inspiration and laughs

Much Love

Katz & Death
