Just Start the Tape: An Interview With the Vampire Rewatch Podcast

• Desperately Alive and Desperately Fragile

  It’s the Season 1 finale, “The Thing Lay Still,” and it’s the end of the unholy family as we know it as Claudia and Louis carry out the plot against Lestat in New Orleans. In Dubai, the truth starts to unravel. We look back on what this rewatch experience has done for us personally and as a trio and look ahead to our next season after a brief hiatus. The end, the beginning.Links to Kelli’s recent interviews with Jacob, Sam & Delainey: https://www.tvinsider.com/show/interview-with-the-vampire/Join our coven on socials:IG: @juststartthetape | X, TikTok, BlueSky: @startthetapepodFollow your hosts:@hiimbobbi (X), ⁠@hiimbobbiii⁠ (IG), Culture Kitsch on YT@kellixboyle (X, IG, and BlueSky)@kamrynsfilm (X, IG, and TikTok) For business, please email: [email protected] Credits:Intro Music: Vibing Over Venus Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License

• Les-GET A FRIEND-stat

  Bobbi, Kelli, and Kam revisit Season 1 Episode 3, “Is My Very Nature That of the Devil?” We pick-up several years since our last episode as Louis and Lestat continue to navigate their immortal life together, and all the challenges that come with living for eternity. Discussions include Loustat’s lack of communication, Lestat’s need for a friend, Louis’ ongoing struggle of self-acceptance, and iconic moments and line deliveries the girls (and the internet) obsess over. The girls share their hot takes in “Start Your Take” and gush over how refreshing it is to see a show truly respects the medium of television.Join our coven by following the show on all socials:Instagram: ⁠⁠@juststartthetape⁠⁠X: ⁠⁠startthetapepod⁠⁠Bobbi:⁠@hiimbobbi⁠ on Twitter⁠@hiimbobbiii⁠ on Instagram⁠Culture Kitsch⁠ on YTKam:@kamrynsfilms on ⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠, ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠, and TikTokKelli:@kellixboyle on ⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠For business, please email: mailto:[email protected] out Martine Thompson’s article on Sinners and Interview With the Vampire for Elle:https://www.elle.com/culture/movies-tv/a64593151/sinners-black-vampire-stories-film-books/Episode Credits:Intro Music: Vibing Over Venus Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License⁠⁠http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
