Author Interview: Jack Anderson of Left Right Game

oh my god he's British

If anyone cares here is a video about the Bristol accent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzYo9LB79JQ

Hunter being a strong interviewer. To bad when Isaiah did speak half of the names and lore he got wrong

Very much enjoyed Hunters dialog but unfortunately couldn’t understand a word from jack not sure what language he speaks but he needs to fix it

I’m pretty late on this, but isn’t Isaiah saying he imagined Alice as Tessa Thompson in the story reading one of the craziest bear traps ever? As she actually did the recording with Jack Anderson

I’ve wanted to hear interviews with these authors since I heard the stories thank you guys

When a Brit accidentally follows a beautiful tradition of cars and driving in Southern American lit. Props

LR Game is my favorite episode on the channel. I finally got on patreon. Just watched this and time for LR Game listen number 3 I think! Great interview boys

Alice: *Furiously writing a dissertation on why Rob chose the call sign 'Ferryman' and its parallels to the River Styx and potential foreshadowing* Rob: Boat.

I hope, if a physical copy is made, that Wendigoon and papa meat are the ones to do the audio book

Amazing interview! I would love a physical copy - this story was my first intro to creepcast as well so great memories all around. Side note: did anyone else feel like Jubilation was the hellscape version of the little town in the woods from Big Fish? That pastel, picturesque, white, painted smile town vibe from both was haunting. I still think about it, the radio segment with the torture sounds was terrifying…

Dude the whole part about Jubilation WAS INSANE!!!

i need this in a physical book copy 😭 it’s one of my favorite stories of all time.

The left right game is one of my favorite pieces of horror literature, maybe even my favorite pieces of media full stop. I never listen to interviews but I had to for this one. I was damn near crying while listening when he got to the symbolism of the gun being useless until the very very end. I don’t know why, I’m not usually emotional like this, but this story hasn’t left my mind and getting to hear about the process has been inspiring me to try to finally get around to writing my own stories that have been rattling around. God damn.

jack knowing isttvg made me so happy

I’ve always said blue jay was a Reddit atheist lol. I always viewed it as atheism not being an evidence issue, but a heart issue. Similar to how St. Thomas Aquinas said “For those with faith, no evidence is necessary; for those without it, no evidence will suffice”

It would be awesome if there was a story set in the LRG where someone accidentally comes across it for whatever reason. They could be just fucking around while taking a drive or smth but idk if it would work with how committed you'd have to be to actually reach the weird shit. there's probably someway that isn't stupid

Please come out with a fiscal coping of LRG 🙏🙏

Oml jubilation being based on celebration makes so much sense

The Roadtrip: Greatest Hits is so funny for this story 😭

1:00:00 there’s adaptations coming?

Literally didn’t know Isaiah was there before he was mentioned. Like bro was silent for almost ten minutes

You guys should interview Rebecca Klingel next!

Banger

This solidifies why this story is so powerful, it's so perfect, it ties itself together from the very beginning all the way to the end and this guy is brilliant. I can't wait for more to come out from him, Woody Harrelson would be perfect for the role of Rob in a film adaptation. If there is one I hope it stays more true to the story than the podcast adaptation did.

One of my favorite “online” stories.

Love this. Gonna listen to LR game again from you guys now 🫂🫂

Listening to this driving through Tennessee after driving for two full days from South Florida to Chicago is very funny

remake this so he’s not british

So happy I’m finally getting to watch this!! I love these author interviews

interview david king next pls and thanks

Ominous

Signed up JUST to watch this interview. Worth it.

TROLLHUNTER MENTIONED🗣️🇳🇴🇳🇴🫎. I never knew it was famous outside of norway. I’m so excited for the second one that comes out this year

This was great!

All the bitches complaining about lack of extra content on the patron have to STFU now. Great work, boys. Keep it up.

Wonderful interview boys! Seemed like a real treat to have this conversation

Y’all’s dynamic translates really really well to interviews. I hope CK Walkers game for one at some point

The more and more I listen to these interviews it definitely gets me riled up to cook something of my own!!

I love these interviews!!! As a writer, I find it inspiring hearing about these talented authors and their processes. I hope these continue!

I personally love hearing how these talented people cook these stories up, and also I think Iseiah and especially Hunter are fantastic interviewers and bounce off the author's responses really well and enthusiastically. It really sounds like the authors love to talk about their work too, I personally think this is great bonus content for LITERALLY $5 A MONTH. Keep it up fellas

Shocked at the amount of people whining in the comments lmao you pay monthly less than people spend on gum. Patience and building this patreon from our input is their intention. Just think of where this pod was in the first 6 months to where it is now! These guys are and have always been committed to making it worth our while.

When Jack kept saying lovecraftian over and over our boy Hunter was about to bust.

Great interview. Jack's very concise and in depth on so much of the creative process and it's very entertaining to see how the sauce is made as they say.

Their Patron is becoming Cream Crew levels of not worth it. I tried to be optimistic, but honestly these interviews are a slog, good extra content is far and few between. I’d rather save 5$ and watch it on YouTube.

loved this interview !!! extra patreon content gets me thru my 10 hour work days ❤️🩷❤️

I hope the next author yall get is c k walker!

After reading through some of these comments, I figured I’d say that I really enjoy these interviews. I personally subscribed to this Patreon because I really enjoy Hunter and Isaiah’s personalities and their dynamic together. I didn’t only subscribe to get some bonus stories. So seeing some of the hate is quite odd to me.

This was really cool to listen to at work

Loveeeeed this interview!! I am DEAD at the way hunter said my last name tho 😅

i love his perspective on what horror is and can be as a genre, it’s something i have spent a lot of time thinking about lately

Interview with an author and fucks his audio. Unacceptable and embarrassing. Hunter is out doing you smh.

if yall ever interview CK Walker i need to know her opinion on the “kyle from borrasca” character type you guys created 😭

Please do interviews! It's so cool to hear from the authors please continue!

Gotta check out the grief doctor!

awesome

Hunter mispronounced my last name. I demand an animated apology and 50 trillion dollars in compensation

Love the author interviews!

Should've asked him why he is British

Listening to this from Bristol and found the explanation very funny

Oh man. Cowboy Left Right game where they have horses instead of cars

Great interview 👍🏾

isaiah,,, what’s up with your mic king

Really enjoyed the interview. Sorry the comments are whining so much, might not be a bad idea to address the patrons

I love hearing authors talk about their projects, you can just hear the passion in this disscussion and it find it so interesting to hear how even the most niche things in life can spiral into such intricate and thoughtful stories. Just that aspect, the ambiguous ending, the feeling of things playing out how they were always meant to.. I think that's why left/right game has always been a favorite for me and something that really inspired me to lean into psycological horror in my own writing.

Trollhunter mentioned!!!🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🗣️🗣️

I loved this interview so much! So cool to know it came from just a short little horror story. I want to start writing myself but keep finding road blocks maybe I just need to send it idk.

Why is there 3 Isaiahs talking at the same time lmao

I got connections. Gone in a heart beat i tell you

okay but for real guys... wheres ad free?

I love how you can see Hunter getting creatively excited when talking to him. Great interview guys.

New ep?

If you guys don't redo stairs in the woods I am going to room 733 myself

one time i saw big blue bir d otside of my window

I loved this interview, you can tell he's a really smart and creative dude and learning about his process was really interesting.

Hunter is so incredibly thoughtful. I think he’d be a great artist/creative writing mentor

So where's the ad free version of today's episode?

New episode's been up on YT for 2 hours btw :')

Damn, I sure hope Isaiah will make it for the next interview

Dude where the fuck is the ad free version of today's episode? Now that you jam 4 ads per video and the merch annoying ass plug it's unwatchable, I pay you on the patreon and you can't be bothered to publish the ad free version here first? How hard could it be? I'm really disappointed in the greedy ass goblins you're turning into sponsoring garbage like factor, I'm unsubscribing. You need to do better to make your fanbase trust you as human beings, but no, you're turning into a money making machine that prioritized money over giving your fans a good experience, and I'm sick of all the youtubers I love doing this, what happened to legit passion, man?

Please read the rest of “ Accounts From a Lonely Broadcast Station”!

Don't listen to the people complaining about these interviews. Lots of your listeners and followers are writers themselves. Listening to the insight of successful authors can be so helpful and put things into perspective.

love that wendi just casually has a gun in back ground haha

The Left Right Game is my all time favorite story

As an audio listener this Patreon is completely useless, videos won’t play for more than 30s before buffering for 5 when I’m listening on the move, which is most of the time I’m listening

LETS FUCKING GOOO

I'm really glad you guys are doing these interviews, it adds so much to the stories and it's so cool to actually get some insight into the ideas behind it and explore the more general ideas in horror aswell. Having an author from something like Jeff the killer for example could be really fun aswell if they're a good sport about the quality ofcourse

Dude I'm so excited for this interview the left right game is my absolute favorite

Wait he’s actually British? 💔

I was really hoping he would comment on hunter’s British accent, other than that great stuff guys. Very interesting and informative insight from a great author

loved this! also just a suggestion would you guys like Isaiah, Hunter,Nick and Harry ever write your own stories for a one off episode? even if their short ones i think that would be interesting to see what you all come up with

I really want an extremely long interview like 2 plus hours to just binge

A TellTale style game based on Left Right Game would be fucking awesome

The way neither of them can remember "wintery bay" and have been calling it "weather bee/bay" or "winter bee" since the first read thru sends me

Man these interviews always feel so short but they pack so much in here. Sad they didn’t ask my one piece question but a lot of interesting ones were asked so fair trade I’d say. I hope they interview Oda next.

Great job! The only thing I wonder about putting the interviews on patreon is would they be better on the free platforms? ONLY wondering bc then they would get more publicity and potentially more ppl seeing and buying their work. Genuinely wondering, no hate. Love to see the ppl behind the work.

"Just constantly getting more and more sleep deprived" while posting on r/nosleep.... I see what you did there... XD

This is amazing. I love the interviews. You guys should try to get the author of “Ted the Caver” to interview! That would be awesome and also C.K Walker

Eh, I'd prefer more stories over the interviews tbh

I don't know about anyone else but I didn't subscribe for 5 bucks monthly to get stupid fucking author interviews, I subscribed for the promised 2 bonus stories a month, I've been subbed for two now and so far I count three stories total. Either start uploading actual bonus stories like you promised or I'm cancelling my fucking subscription this is bullshit and against the tos. Tbh I kinda feel ripped off.

I really love these interview videos!!❤️ I can't wait for more!

Such an amazing story, 2nd only to borrasca and though I hated the direction the story took after bluejay went crazy it was still very well written.

I really like these interviews. I just wish they were longer 😂

we need a vid of the guys doing the left right game

The LRG is such a wonderful story. I dont think they'll ever top it and Penpal

You guys should play the left right game for the patreon

I was so excited when I heard yall were interviewing him

PEAK

Aboutley amazing I'm so excited I'm really hoping we can get that tv adaptation

Isaiah was so quiet in the beginning I thought he wasn’t included in this episode

Norway mentioned 🤝

I always thought it was so tragic that Bristol chose to continue on the Left Right Game.

I love this style of content, Please keep it coming!

Accurate depiction of Celebration, Florida. ☺️

This was such a good interview and so deep 😭made me wanna rewatch left right game.

I’m so glad you guys are being so intentional with these interviews and it’s obvious you are reviewing the stories again before doing these. You’re also keeping it fully Creepcast too with good riffing. Keep it up!

Gold

he should do the up down game next in a plane

So cool, I absolutely love these author interviews. Hearing the authors perspective on Jubilation/winterbay and characters like blue Jay and the ending with Bristol, love it.

Jack talking about Stephen King and the heartbreaking loss of characters makes me wonder if the long walk played a heavy hand in the inspiration of the left right game.

A left right game anime adaptation would go so hard.

This is one of my all time favorite stories. It’s so well written and the character development is amazing. I am so grateful that you guys interviewed him. This is top tier content. Cheers.

I love that BlueJay was inspired by r/atheism 😂

They weren't twins I thought? Anyway good interview 👍

I love that Isaiah's mic is still glitching 😂

Absolutely legendary story!! To me this one is where creep cast solidified itself as my fav podcast

fun interview :) i should've sent a question but i foolishly postponed it and now hunter and isaiah will hate me forever

I was wondering why Isaiah wasn’t talking a lot then I remembered the author is British.

low k love the interveiws

Not gonna lie. Halfway through I doubted that Isaiah was even there 😅 I seriously doubted my memories of the first half

Originally I was quite pleased for my two favourite simians to interview the author of such an enthralling tale.. However there's something about the way he talks that brings me a great anger. Perhaps it's time Earth met it's end.

Not even 20 minutes in LOVECRAFTIAN MENTIONED

I would love future stories of people playing the game in other places to access different aspects of this world

Thank you for breaking the Vince Gilligan philosophy to speak to writers as to how one can create an ambiguous but yet explainable ending❤️

epic trollhunter reference, will always hold a special place in my heart

Left Right Game is my favorite story by far.

Well....there goes my question (que fart noise)

I hate to be negative but I'm not liking the interviews. I like the streams and the stories but these interviews have almost no entertainment value.

Will definitely be my fav story yall have read, really enjoyed this interview

Isaiah is suspiciously quiet. Is he uncomfortable with British people?

Easily my favorite creepypasta story, really looking forward to the grief doctor

So cool that Hunter was able to interview Jack Anderson, too bad Isaiah couldn't be here too

So far the interviews have been with the authors of my top 2 favorite stories you guys have covered. It's incredible to hear from the authors of such amazing and inspiring works. I literally can't stop smiling this is so dope!

Would love to see a Christian Wallis interview

well now we need a Ck Walker interview

I’m 5 minutes in and my first thought was SO SHE WAS BRITISH!

I really like both the "people" of jubilee and the baby monster in the woods. The idea that the things in jubilee just being for show without real understanding of how real people act in a town gave me chills. The baby in the woods just being quite literally just a baby that is scared (probably) just is a great narrative piece. Like it doesn't want to be there and just happens to be large enough to cause real damage if provoked. Going to start my rewatch now lol

Really enjoyed this. As Hunter said in the end - it's inspiring, makes you want to create stuff. I'm working on my weird new twist for The Shaman's camp right now...

He seems so genuine and sweet. I’ll have to give his published works a read!! Thank you guys for these interview episodes, so cool to hear from the authors!

Loved this one boys. The interviews are always a good time

Hunter was locked tf in this episode 😭

Isaiah speaking 3 words total this entire episode is a twist i certainly did not expect but it was SO fun seeing how passionate and engaged Hunter was

at 53:40, when Jack said Rob was based off a character from Trollhunter, i thought he was talking about the animated Netflix show😭😭

Beef

As I crazy or did you say another story episode was supposed to be out soon?

sad to see Isaiah moved to tears in the last frame over the fact that the author is indeed br*tish this was sick, loving the interviews !!

One thing I really loved about Left Right Game is that the world they're exploring seems to be a parallel to our world. I could be wrong about this but I always had this theory that when Rob saw Alice’s “shadow” in Japan, the reason that she appeared there was because their journey going left and right was always directionally diagonal. Basically my thought was that they drove to where Japan is located in the real world, starting in Arizona, and that they were just on another plane of existence so there wasn't a Pacific Ocean.

I had no idea he was a British “person”

I need the merch code!

I’m still watching I hope he makes a hard copy

Le epic video guys updoot for you guys

CK Walker has to be next

LOVECRAFTIAN 😍

He said “lovecraftian” and it activated me like a sleeper agent

I know Hunter was excited when Jack mentioned Lovecraft lmao

So pumped. Left Right Game is my favorite story so far, so creative and so intriguing. My fav to re watch/listen to.

Hot and Ready

Really looked forward to having this interview possibly happen. Awesome.

Winter what now Isaiah

Perfect for my hour long drive from work

Thank you for answering my questions about Phoenix!

You can see the pure disgust of a pure American at speaking to a British "person"

I wish the Gas Station writer wasn't such a dork bc I would've loved to see him with the guys

You guys should definitely interview Tony lunedi for spire in the woods next

Thanks for this guys, woke up this morning and discovered my little pupper Theo had passed sleeping next to me lastnight, so this helps soften that blow atleast some

LETSGOOOOO

🚨lovecraft mentioned by someone other than Hunter🚨

Oh naur

You guys should interview the writers of the worst stories and shit on them the entire time.

Cream

First time I've here's a British person say naruto

Can’t believe this interview wasn’t 8+ smh 🙄🙄🤣🤣

Left right game reminds me of the long walk

i rewatched the episodes just so its fresh in my mind! Great story, one of my all time favorite

The moment the guy mentioned anime you can see Isaiah’s face twist lol, just typing to meatcanyon “ok get this DWEEB OUT IF HERE” like the high school bully lol

Awesome!
