Patron-Only AMA Questions April 2026

I'm curious when it comes to politics and books as someone who covers tramsgressive fiction which is inherently political. How do you feel about politics and art me personally I think their always entwined even if a lot of people's attempts to reduce art to a singular allegory is annoying.

Do you have any desire to read the diaries of Harry Crosby? ("Shadows of the Sun")

Are there any books from the earlier days of the channel you'd like to revisit specifically through a Paglia lens?

Have you ever read a book that you may have enjoyed while reading but ended up regretting having ever read because it had a lasting negative effect on your own psyche/life?

Hi Cliff! What music albums would you recommend while reading 2666 by Roberto Bolano?

What is your opinion about modern masculinity? Can you share some things you learned about marriage?

If you're not a Capricorn Rising and a Virgo/Scorpio Moon, I might write off astrology altogether. Also, I'll soon be travelling around Japan for a couple weeks. Any recs - literary or otherwise?

Are there any lines or passages from books you think about often?

You said in the last AMA that life can be very gray and nuanced. Is there an author that comes to mind that you think nailed the grayness of the human experience? For me Graham Greene captured it in his own special way.
