Kyle Meredith With...

Kate Siegel knew the trick to making Carrie’s first house party terrifying was letting her have a great time. Talking with Kyle Meredith about directing episode three of Mike Flanagan’s Stephen King adaptation, she connects her own experiences with bullying and teenage freedom to a night inspired by Can’t Hardly Wait and 10 Things I Hate About You. Then we get properly nerdy about the needle drops, searching through roughly 400 songs for one scene, and making a car float with a decidedly unglamorous jack. Siegel also shares where her feature directorial debut Method stands, her plans for feminist filmmaking through Legitimate Pictures, and a dream of casting Olivia Rodrigo, so somebody get that message to Olivia.Listen to Kate Siegel chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Deborah Ann Woll had one nonnegotiable for The Cycle’s horror effects, and it was making sure they actually existed in the room. She and Jeffrey Donovan talk with Kyle Meredith about the film’s practical creatures, keeping its big reveal under wraps, and starting their work together with a decomposing body on a morgue table. Woll gets into the forensic research that shaped her performance, while Donovan explains how the set’s attention to detail put the pressure on him to deliver. Add Oregon’s coastal fog, a supposedly haunted Victorian rental, and David Soul’s “Silver Lady,” and even the soundtrack starts looking suspicious.Listen to Deborah Ann Woll and Jeffrey Donovan chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Stephen Wilson Jr. calls singing Chris Cornell’s part of “Hunger Strike” alongside Eddie Vedder at Ohana Festival one of the greatest moments of his life, and he tells Kyle Meredith how a cover he recorded just for himself led to sharing the stage with one of his heroes. The two also get into his recent run of singles, including how a last-minute writing session with Miranda Lambert turned into “Hardwired,” why interpolating the Pixies’ “Where Is My Mind?” gives both songs an entirely different meaning, and how his music keeps finding connections he never planned. Wilson also opens up about “Cornerman,” which he sees as a sequel to “Father's Son,” and the realization that moving forward after Son of Dad might mean finally letting go of his father, even as he continues to show up in the songs. Plus, the former scientist and boxer talks about turning the Ryman Auditorium into a boxing ring, his dad’s love of Muhammad Ali, and why making music sometimes feels like having a friend and an opponent in the same corner.Listen to Stephen Wilson Jr. chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Ariel Winter says playing a sarcastic, cynical character like Sabrina Grimm comes pretty naturally, mostly because she recognizes a little of herself in the role. The Modern Family star talks with Kyle Meredith about Season 2 of The Sisters Grimm, why the show’s themes of family and foster children matter just as much as its fairy-tale adventures, and how she found Sabrina’s voice by channeling a younger version of herself. Winter also looks at returning to Sofia the First, discovering that fans are following her from one magical world to another, and the strange experience of voicing animated characters who never have to grow up, even as she does.Listen to Ariel Winter chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.

Getting older just means getting louder for Danny Elfman and Filter’s Richard Patrick. Both catch up with Kyle Meredith backstage at Louder Than Life 2026, where Elfman reveals how Tool’s Fear Inoculum got him through hours of tattooing, why he never expected to return to the stage, and how his next album comes with a David Lynch-inspired movie featuring Slash, Thundercat, and Caleb Landry Jones. Meanwhile, Patrick says he’s making the heaviest music of his career with A Place to Kill, talks about Ministry’s massive influence on Filter, and previews the upcoming album The Antidote, which picks up where The Algorithm left off. They also get into their work scoring films, the freedom of jumping between musical worlds, and why neither one seems particularly interested in mellowing out.Listen to Danny Elfman and Richard Patrick chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube.
