Episode description

We speak with Talking Heads' David Byrne about the Criterion Collection re-release of his 1986 film, True Stories and the first ever edition of that film's complete soundtrack. The film was Byrne's directorial debut and as it plaily puts it right at the start is "about a bunch of people in Virgil, Texas." It's part zany, slice of life comedy, part anthropological study - processed through the music of Talking Heads and projected through a loving, art house lens. Jon CoS' Cap Blackard as they speak with Byrne about how this remarkable portrait of 80s America came together. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
