Susan Seidelman has directed a number of seminal films including “Smithereens” and, even more notably, “Desperately Seeking Susan” among others. She has recently published a memoir called “Desperately Seeking Something” (St. Martin’s Press, 2024). I interviewed her recently for the Woodstock Film Festival’s Let’s Talk Film podcast and was given approval to re-purpose for Filmwax Radio. Susan is someone I’ve been pursuing since I began the podcast 13 years ago. Thrilled to have finally met the filmmaker.
Also, setting up an interview for the radio station I work at, I had a few minutes alone with the great singer songwriter and guitarist, Richard Thompson. He recently released his 18th studio album “Ship to Shore”. After seeing perform on five occasions, I was thrilled to have even a few minutes chatting with him about music distribution.
