Kyle Meredith With...

Paul Bettany says he believes in genius “the same way I believe in libraries,” and that pretty much sets the tone as he and Will Sharpe talk Amadeus with Kyle Meredith, digging into why this story still hits and what a longer series lets them explore beyond the film. Bettany leans into Salieri’s perspective but says this version finally gives Mozart equal weight, especially the toll genius takes at home and not just in the spotlight. Sharpe, meanwhile, talks about using Mozart’s music as a way into the character, chasing the mix of playfulness, ego, and eventual darkness that builds across the series. And somewhere in there, you get a reminder that genius might be real, even if no one quite understands it.

Jena Malone catches up with Kyle Meredith to talk about her first album under her own name, Flowers for Men, which pulls together a decade of voice memos, poems, and late-night recordings into something she calls “sci-fi folk.” She gets into how becoming a parent reshaped her creativity, why she’s more interested in building new myths about love and the future than following traditional songwriting rules, and how tracks like “You’ve Been on My Mind” and “F*** Boys” came from flipping perspective and owning projection. There’s also talk of her new Netflix series The Boroughs, the Duffer Brothers’ follow-up to Stranger Things, which trades kid heroes for older characters facing aliens and mortality.

Shawn Colvin tells Kyle Meredith how A Few Small Repairs accidentally became her breakthrough, powered by "Sunny Came Home" and that unforgettable Grammy moment, but also the pressure that hit right after when success finally showed up on album four. She talks about letting go of chasing hits, the weird reality of being labeled a “divorce record,” and how that freedom is exactly what made it connect. Then the conversation shifts into her later work with The Starlighter, pulling from a childhood book of lullabies that stuck with her for decades, which turns into this full-circle moment between her early musical life and raising her daughter. It’s about instinct, timing, and the strange way the songs you don’t aim at radio sometimes end up everywhere.

Peter Capaldi and Cush Jumbo catch up with Kyle Meredith to talk about stepping back into the world of Criminal Record for its second season, digging into the evolving dynamic between their characters while the story tackles timely themes like extremism, morality, and power. Capaldi discusses the challenge of playing things closer to the chest this time around, dialing back his usual expressive instincts to keep his character more guarded, while Jumbo leans into June’s growing confidence and the cost of sticking to her moral compass as the stakes rise. They also get into how much of the story they actually want to know ahead of time, the spontaneity that comes from minimal rehearsal, and how the show manages to pull off big, cinematic moments on a tight budget, including that explosive opening riot scene.

The cast of The Audacity, including Billy Magnuson, Jonathan Glatzer, Paul Adelstein, Simon Helberg, Rob Corddry, Meaghan Rath, Everett Blunck, Thailey Roberge, and Ava Marie Telek, all sit down with Kyle Meredith to unpack a Silicon Valley satire that feels a little too close to reality, from ego-driven CEOs and “wild god” founder worship to the quieter damage done behind the scenes. Across the conversations, they dig into characters who think they’re doing good while chasing power and influence, the irony of building technology meant to connect people while becoming more isolated, and how money and ambition tend to expose rather than create corruption. Adelstein talks about playing emotional disconnection, Helberg leans into the contradiction of a man obsessed with connection who can’t achieve it, and Corddry admits to borrowing from great performances like Succession, while Rath points out that even the most well-meaning players are still playing the same game. Meanwhile, the younger cast frames the show’s real question: whether the next generation can break the cycle or is doomed to repeat it, offering a bit of hope in a world where the adults are mostly lost, all wrapped in a series that balances unsettling truths with absurd moments like karaoke curveballs and perfectly aimed truffles.
