00:00Watch The Vampire Lestat After Dark on AMC Plus or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:11Previously on the show formally titled Interview with the Vampire.
00:15So, Mr. Dulac, how long have you been dead?
00:18The year was 1910.
00:20Louis, let me introduce you to Mr. Lestat de Leoncore.
00:23What exactly is the nature of your relationship with my brother, Monsieur Leoncore?
00:27I can swap this life of shame.
00:29Swap it out for a dark gift.
00:31Be my companion for all eternity.
00:34He had a way about him.
00:35Preternaturally charming, occasionally thoughtful.
00:37He was my murderer, my mentor, my lover and my maker.
00:40All of those things at once.
00:42Claudia was everything.
00:44The life of a vampire has its challenges.
00:50Can an immortal meet mortality?
00:54Theoretically, it can be done.
00:55But could it be done by us to him?
00:58Paris was an awakening.
01:00Louis?
01:00Paris was many things in those days.
01:05Bonjour, mon amour.
01:06Are you schizophrenic, Louis?
01:08I could feel the movement of air with his movement.
01:11His breath on the back of my neck.
01:13We were on trial for murder.
01:15Love has always been difficult for me.
01:17My first paramour, Nicolas Delafonte, a violinist.
01:20Guardes you to see garçons come in the memory.
01:24I am Armand.
01:26I am the chef of your clan.
01:28You led him there so he could destroy it.
01:31Yes.
01:31You saved Louis.
01:33Banishment.
01:34Go for it!
01:35But not her.
01:37Who made you?
01:38His name was Magnus.
01:41He took me from my room in Paris as I kicked and screamed.
01:44The light's going out of your blue eye.
01:47I've come to kill you.
01:48I have the blood of Akasha in me.
01:51He didn't save you.
01:53Lestat did.
01:55I'm guessing you haven't heard from my maker.
01:57I shouldn't have left you alone with him.
01:58Make it up to me.
01:59We'll do a follow-up book.
02:01I'm companion enough for myself now.
02:02I'm sorry I don't have much time.
02:04I'm in the middle of rehearsing.
02:05I'm going on tour.
02:06I just need about 50 more years of practice.
02:22I'm in the middle of rehearsing.
02:51Baby, baby, baby, baby.
02:54I fall down, burn the ground.
03:02I fall down, burn the ground.
03:09Baby, baby, baby, baby.
03:16Hmm, c'est cool.
03:49Good evening.
03:50Hello.
03:51The House wishes to extend its gratitude to the gathering for your compliance with the unorthodox
03:57prerequisites of tonight's event.
04:00Furthermore, we wish to reiterate that the anonymity that you have granted us will be given
04:06to you individually as well as to any institutions that you are representing.
04:11Stating the obvious, we are not here and neither are you.
04:18Lot 1 of 2, the master recordings of the complete works of the Vampire Lestat de Leoncore, which
04:25includes his 2025 self-titled album, The Vampire Lestat, additional session tracks that were discarded
04:32in the final assemblage of the final assemblage of the album, original handwritten scores, and private recordings by the Vampire
04:38Lestat himself, which include a song cycle in the classical vein set to the poetry of Baudelaire.
04:47Before we begin the bidding, I perform the following action.
05:03We will begin the bidding at 1 yuan.
05:11E yuan?
05:12E yuan.
05:13So.
05:14To the gentlewoman, third row, good spirit.
05:19Lot number 2.
05:20A music box curated by the Vampire Lestat himself, a 1978 Fernando Marciani Corinto sideboard inside a Rosner & Zonn
05:33Mott turntable with Bialab 90 speakers.
05:38Two temperature-controlled wine cabinets, one holding a bottle of Niport 1863 port wine, the other with a magnum of
05:47blood from the curator himself.
05:49The upper level, a singular vinyl pressing of the complete works of the Vampire Lestat de Leoncore, previously delineated, along
06:00with 111 albums of audio best described as an omniscient history of the events of the 2025 album in supporting
06:09tour and the consequential global catastrophes that sprung from said album and tour as narrated by the Vampire Lestat himself.
06:18The collection has been named The Failures. We will begin the bidding at 50 million yen.
06:29If you are hearing this now, you must be a very privileged individual. You could have fed a small nation
06:36for years while they paved over the rubble. You bought my box instead. I like you already.
06:44So let's begin in the middle. For I could and should have ended it there, my tour, my hedonistic pursuit
06:51of extremity. All of it. And had I done so, the regretful dead and the traumatized still alive would be
07:00somewhere other than they are today.
07:03And I am not saying that the attempted extinction of the Y chromosome across the continents was all my fault.
07:08Now that would suggest a level of self-importance even I'm not comfortable with.
07:12But upon reflection, I made a contribution. It was the spring of 2025. A good nation was making itself great
07:23again. Again.
07:27And every vampire, those converting and those enduring, well, they were doing exactly as they pleased.
07:36The Blues
07:38The Blues
07:39The Blues
08:06Oh, oh, oh, oh.
08:15Oh, oh, oh, oh.
08:21Well, I've got a long face.
08:23Not before the baby.
08:25I've got long face.
08:27Come up reason.
08:29You're my lost days.
08:31That doesn't faze me.
08:36I'm an actor in my mixture.
08:41I get fat to her when we break her.
08:44What doesn't matter who I take her?
08:50Naturally, I made the band after myself.
08:53And the four that backed me played their parts as instructed.
08:56There was Larry, the front man made side man, choking his guitar neck nightly, wishing it was mine.
09:03Brother Alex, the more talented seedling, straight-edged in half the fun.
09:09Salamander, bassist, dumb, shockingly dumb.
09:14And TC, the abandoned bride of a dozen should have died in art school bands, keeping us all in the
09:20dirty pocket.
09:21We dropped songs on the streams and booked intimate venues to induce what Jen's snooze called FOMO.
09:28They came for cosplay, left converted, and I baptized them, the beautiful unwell.
09:33And yet, here we were, in the inn of the stooges and the stripes, thirty performances notched and already resting
09:41on the alps of adequacy.
09:42Unacceptable.
09:45I'm piano!
09:47I'm piano!
09:49You're l'allegro!
09:51I'm a dante!
09:53We're belero!
09:55Prostitué!
09:57We're belero!
09:58Oh!
10:01Oh!
10:04Oh!
10:08Hello.
10:10Welcome to Detroit!
10:12Lovely city!
10:13Your song sucks.
10:14Thank you for your feedback.
10:16Pick up the pace, back up the gear, give me some face, a souvenir!
10:20Here come the case, here come the fear!
10:23I'll never fail!
10:27Flipping
10:31Flipping
10:33Flipping
10:34Flipping
10:40Out of time
10:44Flipping
10:45Oh, you're coming
10:49You're coming
10:51You're coming
10:52Oh yeah!
10:55Oh yeah, we're coming!
10:57Yeah, yeah, we're coming!
10:59Oh yeah, I'm coming!
11:02Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh!
11:14Well, that was boring.
11:15What do you think will like it?
11:16Harmonies on Plastic Fiends were trash.
11:19He's right.
11:19And the front head on your kick is shimmering.
11:21Tune it up a step.
11:22Singer's right.
11:23You left your tambourine in his stand, Larry.
11:25Yeah, I was feeling the guitar.
11:27No one is coming to you, yucky, darling.
11:29No, they come for the Aussie shit.
11:30Do rage call the Harmony Room?
11:32Larry Slater shredding it tonight and no one ever.
11:35You sign the checks there.
11:36I do, I do sign the checks.
11:38Sign this.
11:38The tambourine tomorrow is rehearsed and perfected.
11:42What am I saying?
11:43You're back in court.
11:43Paulus.
11:44Brian, the wife, early retirement, and her lawyer, Lake Boat.
11:47Use the pen.
11:47But it's funny because it's blood and I'm a liar.
11:51Notaries in Oregon, notarizing red ink.
11:54There's the band and there's the shell that protects the band from the world's envy.
11:59Our band shell was Christine Clare.
12:02She hired, fired, dictated, and castrated with extreme prejudice.
12:09Try your best not to be you tonight.
12:09We want the car.
12:11Now.
12:11We'll be good.
12:12Carvales.
12:14What do you think?
12:17Yay.
12:19All right, Slats, I have to go.
12:21I'm going into my vampire dressing room now.
12:25A little draining both ways.
12:26You'll have to guess who gets the fangs and who gets the vodka bottle.
12:30And yes, it's a vodka bottle.
12:34He did it again.
12:36Fucking asshole.
12:37Did I mention that I was filming a documentary at the time?
12:40A bootless errand helmed by a first-time director.
12:43I've seen a rough cut.
12:45Truthful and daring, with less war and pity.
12:47Anyone see Yorda?
12:49Yorda.
12:50Sky blue waters.
12:55Missing a contact again.
12:56Oh.
12:58How many drinks have you had?
13:00One and a half.
13:01Drive to the Burbs, sit by yourself in a booth at Applebee's, order the usual.
13:04Big tip, meet us back in the city.
13:07Now you'd think a 54 city rock tour would be a wonderful cover for a blood drinker.
13:11Hide your keel up on the bus, wave to the morgue reports in the view of your mirror, that kind
13:16of thing.
13:16But niche celebrity is a hunter's handicap, and a sloppy night in Corvallis made urgent the need for a body
13:23double.
13:24His name was Yarda Klapek, and the Albanian gangsters Christine hired to find my doppelganger found him working construction in
13:31the Czech Republic.
13:32Three inches shorter than your velvet mouth, narrator.
13:35We fit him for lifts, blue eye contacts, and a wig.
13:39And otherwise, let him be Neanderthal me.
13:42I hunted this way, and we sent him that way.
13:44And every sad photograph uploaded to Reddito discord of Yarda eating up tuna melt by himself only confirmed for most
13:53what they already believed.
13:55Let's go!
13:55That I, the Vampire Lestat, was Daniel Malloy's fictitious creation.
14:01And the Vampire Lestat, the band, was fronted by a bricklaying karaoke phonetic from Ostrova.
14:06Nothing but a desperate cash grab at the end of a chuggy vampire fad.
14:10And I've only myself to blame for the timing, having locked us in an attic for a year plus perfecting
14:15our sound.
14:16The sound I hope would counter Mr. Dulac's portrayal of me as a mayonnaise villain with sociopathic tendencies.
14:24I'll beside the point, because the point was, the point forever is...
14:28I know you're real!
14:29Most of humanity moved on from vampires. And rather quickly.
14:34Congratulations. Now go make friends.
14:38They lifted their heads from their algorithmic handmasters, uttered a collective, huh, and swipe left.
14:45I am the Vampire Lestat. I am a god. Gods are not swiped.
14:54The Contessa. The useful idiot. Great show.
15:00You left before we started. Yeah, I figured. Spotify some T-Rex and drag a little oneg from Dr. Fareed.
15:06Good here. Same, Jeff.
15:08I am not here. Can we mic you? TC punch the boom again.
15:12Yeah. Okay.
15:19So, uh, you and Louis talking again? He doesn't return my texts. Or my telepathy. I hear he's back in
15:29the States. We good? We're good. It's late.
15:37Okay.
15:40You've been alive and undead for 265 years. You witnessed the French Revolution firsthand, the electric light, penicillin, two world
15:49wars, the atomic bomb, the moon landing, the Berlin Wall...
15:53Joey Chestnut.
15:54What?
15:55He eats hot dogs for a living. He's extraordinary. I hope to meet him one day. Was there a question?
16:00Having accumulated profound wisdom and experience through the dark gift of immortality, why have you chosen to waste at singing
16:07music no one wants to hear in pants no one should ever squeeze into?
16:11You ask this question every night.
16:13And I get a different answer every night.
16:14If you get me to repeat myself soon enough, I am sure once you confront your transformational trauma.
16:19I don't have transformational trauma.
16:21Mmm, that's why these movie producers hired you, Danny Malloy, vampire slayer.
16:26They said you requested me.
16:28Absurd.
16:29Oh, as absurd as a documentary about a rock band posing as vampires, fronted by an actual vampire.
16:36Directed by a vampire passing as a human.
16:39You tell him for me.
16:41Is it true you were a stutterer as a child?
16:44Louis said you were.
16:51Was he there in 18th century Auvers?
16:53He said you told him that.
16:54Did I threaten Claudia with rape on a train?
16:57Was I in the room when Donizetti wrote Don Pasquale?
17:01No, no, and impossible because I had buried myself underground for the vast majority of the 1800s.
17:08I wrote what he told me.
17:09I don't have trauma.
17:11I love being a vampire.
17:13And can you drop the fledgling speak and spell?
17:22The dark, dreary, industrial world has finally submitted to automation.
17:31Laborers stand in their doorways hitting their pipes as their children have pipe in their drained empty swimming pools.
17:40Drugstores locked up baby formula and shaving cream while Saks ate Barneys and someone told everyone that Lululemon was sexy.
17:50Facts are irrelevant.
17:55Facts are irrelevant.
17:56Facts are irrelevant.
17:58And the value of human life, it has never been more arbitrary.
18:04David, Freddy, Prince Rogers, they're all gone.
18:09And the lights on Tete's ears had dimmed.
18:13Fire coming down the hill.
18:16Water moving in on Nantucket.
18:20No more safe spaces.
18:24It's my era.
18:26Now.
18:30Host Malone and Jelly Roll playing there tonight.
18:33$60,000 for a face tattoo.
18:35Palooza.
18:36You played an 800 seat venue.
18:38How is it your era?
18:41Hmm.
18:43I'm vain and shallow and pure an empty seat.
18:45Ask me an easy one.
18:48Is it true your band was formed on Halloween?
18:57You are listening to The Failures.
19:01Album 2, Side B.
19:26What do you think?
19:28It's nice.
19:30Nice?
19:31Yeah.
19:31It's nice.
19:32I don't see Beyonce covering it.
19:34But it's nice.
19:37Nice is nothing.
19:39It's nice.
19:40Nice is a balloon.
19:41It's your back writing music.
19:42A flower box is nice.
19:43It's nice.
19:43You got yourself a nice place.
19:45It's a nice word.
19:47And it says everything I wanted to express.
19:49Don't be a bitch about it.
19:50Hm.
19:52You should come visit.
19:54Hm.
19:54I have a space above the bed in one of the guest rooms.
19:57I can't find a painting for her.
19:59Oh, a guest room?
20:01You want me to come and see your guest room?
20:03It's an affluent neighborhood.
20:05Old money, young professionals.
20:08A smattering of Christ the Trust from Bebe.
20:10Oh, good eating.
20:14Same potholes, but no hurricanes.
20:18No witches.
20:20Everyone mangles French just like you do.
20:23Come to me.
20:25Montreal.
20:26I am he, and he is me.
20:30That's baggage here.
20:31I get it.
20:32I get it.
20:34Besides, there's an Olmstead Park nearby if I get homesick.
20:38And there's a garage band rehearsing across the street who call themselves, of all things, Satan.
20:47They call themselves, of all things, Satan?
20:50Satan's night out.
20:52Satan's night out?
20:54Out.
20:54Satan's night out.
20:56Okay.
20:56Makes sense.
20:57Louie, do you know someone called Daniel Malloy?
21:03Uh...
21:03I burned his laptop!
21:04I didn't know he had it saved in the cloud.
21:06I only found out it was coming out a month ago.
21:08You've known for a month, and you talk about me and it to a mortal?
21:11Well, yeah.
21:12Uh, yeah.
21:13Gonna...
21:14You know?
21:14No, I don't know, Louie.
21:16Please, explain yourself.
21:18It's gonna be here and gone in a minute.
21:20No one reads anymore.
21:21No stat, he's like, whatever.
21:24100%.
21:25But Armand...
21:26He's like, mysterious.
21:28Yeah.
21:28There's layers.
21:29You have to do that toile at the Louvre.
21:31Hey, toots!
21:32The boomers!
21:33They were going to go see the other farm with his resting buttress.
21:37Yeah, I skipped that and I would help you to see my beta boy in the corner of the room.
21:41Hmm.
21:43I would do it.
21:44You have to do it.
21:47I would kill it.
21:48I would kill it.
21:49I would kill it.
21:49I would kill it.
21:55I would kill it.
21:56I would kill it.
21:57I would kill it.
21:58I would kill it.
21:58I would kill it.
21:59I would kill it.
21:59I would kill it.
22:00100%.
22:01How much wildsleeve?
22:02Huh?
22:04Do you want to become a member?
22:05There's 10% of it.
22:06No, thank you!
22:11Huh.
22:14Huh.
22:15I know what infinitesimal means.
22:18It was raining.
22:20No!

23:05Well, allergies are delusional.

31:50Her blood.
31:53Ecstasy.
31:55LSD.
31:56What the hell happened up there?
31:59What the hell happened up there?
32:01What the hell were you doing?
32:04I should have quit right there and then.
32:06It would have been a lovely footnote to my life, the band.
32:10But the muses were just beginning.
32:14You done this to me?
32:16What are you doing?
32:19I lost myself on stage for a moment.
32:23Seems you still lost.
32:26This song's gonna kill you. You know that, don't you?
32:29I can't die.
32:30Everything dies.
32:32You die, I die.
32:35She dies.
32:36She dies.
32:38Though he dies bad.
32:42I'm a mortal.
32:43Yeah, you kill some wolves and fall in love.
32:46Get the gift.
32:47Fall in love.
32:48Go to ground.
32:49Get dug up and fall in love.
32:51You like some wet clothes and a coin-op dryer.
32:54Just 265 years round and round.
32:58Why are you so sad?
33:01Thousands of fans loving you.
33:02I want millions.
33:04And that'll top off that heart of yours.
33:09Billions.
33:11Then why you always gotta make it so hard for someone to give it to you?
33:15Huh?
33:17Who told you that?
33:19Don't worry.
33:20They coming.
33:22Who's coming?
33:27Great show, don't you?
33:28Who's coming?
33:29Who?
33:34You are listening to The Failures.
33:37Album 5, Side B.
33:39If you take nothing else away from your exorbitant purchase, heed this advice.
33:45Never play two nights in Detroit.
33:49You'll wind up in Windsor with a broken orbital bone listening to transactional sex through the adjoining walls.
33:56How I came to this squalid real estate is the premise of Side B album 5.
34:01So...
34:04Come.
34:06Now the boutique hotel we were staying at was having a grandish opening that night and the band was asked
34:11to lend its celebrity status to the event.
34:13Don't tell me to pose.
34:15Fuck you!
34:16There was a red carpet, a pap line, and a vampire DJ of some renown seducing corporate employees, provincial influencers,
34:24and party crashing beautifully unwell.
34:26Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Look faster. Thank you. Thank you.
34:27I was having sex in an elevator with Dee and the girl I had just overindulged myself with early in
34:33the night.
34:34Actually, that happens later.
34:38A lot of things happened that night.
34:40Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.
34:45The band is inside with Dan and a VIP perch.
34:49I'm giving the paps my pussycat with no idea that I would be in a fang fight less than an
34:55hour later.
34:56No, no, no, no. I'm getting ahead of myself again.
34:59I arrived fashionably late, of course.
35:02State your name for the camera.
35:04Baby Jinx.
35:05Okay, baby. Tell me. Why do you like the vampire Lestat?
35:09Like I'm gonna be in the movie?
35:11Oh, you're in it now.
35:13I am feeling good.
35:16Surfing the sublime candy-flipped wave of the girl's blood.
35:19Hear him. Hear that voice.
35:22The girl is feeling good.
35:23Wow.
35:24Riding the wonders of Dr. Fareed's blood transfusion quick pick-me-up cocktail.
35:29Who is this guy? Cause like, rock and roll, it's dying.
35:32I sat there, soaking up her praise, along with the band, still somehow blind to the vampiric mysteries of their
35:39front man.
35:40So what if the dead and buried past was now a fresh and eager groupie?
35:45It's rock and roll, you know?
35:47Have a nervous breakdown on stage, chat it up with the floating girl on the ceiling you almost killed.
35:51Have sex with their in the elevator.
35:53Ah, I'm still not there yet.
35:56MDMA and LST.
35:58The Torval and Dean of hallucinogenics.
36:01And so then everybody's like, is rock and roll actually dying?
36:04Were you a stutterer as a child?
36:06They walk into the ER, they are like, the doctor.
36:10Unless that's the scalpel.
36:12I'm the scalpel printed t-shirts.
36:15And so he, the scalpel, cuts into rock and roll's heart.
36:20Like he cut into mine tonight.
36:23And he has the heart in his mouth.
36:25He's like, do you wanna fuck?
36:29And rock and roll is like, yes bitch!
36:32I excuse myself to the men's room.
36:35Didn't read about vampire physiology in Mr. Dulac's memoir, did you?
36:39No mention of the scars on my chest either.
36:42Hair stopping way above my shoulders.
36:45And just for the record, no ticket pocket of mine ever had his initials inscribed onto them.
36:50I mean, these are the editorial wags of an insane person.
36:55Note to self-edit that out in the final version.
36:58Starting again.
36:59Vampires pee.
37:01We don't do it as often as you do, assuming you're not one of us.
37:04And we generally avoid eco-friendly urinals.
37:11I see.
37:18It will stay.
37:20I don't know.
37:20Let's try this.
37:20Hey, how are you guys?
37:20We don't have any given any more time to play, but I can play this.
37:23Let's see.
37:24Let's see.
37:24Let's go play.
37:25Let's see.
37:25Let's see.
37:25I know.
37:29Let's see.
37:31Let's see.
37:31Let's see.
37:35Let's see.
37:36Name's Tim. She's Russ.
37:39Bear. Russ.
37:42Pronouns.
37:44And yet it's respectful, like silence at a urinal.
37:50He's got a bit crossed.
37:52We were minding each other the other night.
37:55Russ here has a hot mouth.
37:58And a strong pelvic floor.
38:00I admire your aim.
38:03Hmm. Longface sucks.
38:05Russ wanted to apologize.
38:09What? Black licorice?
38:11Why do I have to feel?
38:15I like those ones.
38:17Franklin, Mr. Shankly almost ruined the Queen's death.
38:20I apologize, you accept it.
38:23We have a coven out here in Detroit.
38:26Do you?
38:27The Fang Gang.
38:29You want to see a real vampire bar? Come with us.
38:32We have a huge house out past Brightmoor.
38:34Our own farm under the floorboards.
38:36I'm not sure. What about tomorrow night?
38:40You're on the road tomorrow night.
38:42Yes, it was me being polite.
38:46No, that was you lying.
38:48Hmm.
38:49Eco-friendly urinals.
38:51Good for the planet, so we're told.
38:53Good for vampires.
38:56We Chardonnay them.
39:02And then there's regional vampires.
39:06Always trying to make a name for themselves.
39:10I Chardonnay them, too.
39:12Obligations, I'm afraid.
39:13But please do send my most sincere bonjour to your Brightmoorish color.
39:36I have a blind spot when it comes to blood poisoning.
39:40I don't think a vampire of my stature would know better.
39:43But then there's that old singing.
39:45You fool me once, shame on me.
39:47You fool me twice.
39:48MDMA and LSD are excellent drugs.
39:51Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.
39:54Twirl, twirl.
39:56Overshare, I saw your soul.
39:59I saw yours, too.
40:04Still feeling good.
40:07I went looking for my band, looking for sex, looking for anything
40:10that radiated the fun that I sang about in my song, Long Face.
40:16And then... Regionals.
40:20Wait, did you say that Long Face sucked?
40:23Long Face sucks.
40:24Does it suck?
40:25I wondered.
40:27Did you have a point?
40:29And then I thought, ooh, they want a little scrap with a scalpel.
40:34No worries.
40:35I thought I have the queen's blood in me.
40:37I could take 20 Regionals at once with the queen's blood.
40:41Where's the band, damn?
40:44They called corporate bullshit.
40:48Went to party upstairs.
40:51So I'm scoring dick pills in Mogadishu for a UN peacekeeper.
40:56When in walks Stuart Copeland wearing a kufi and a mouthful of ammo.
41:01So I thought about having sex with Christine.
41:03And then I thought, that's all the way upstairs.
41:06And then I thought, I'm the scalpel.
41:09What does the scalpel do between here and upstairs?
41:14Mr. Delac's memoir tiptoed around vampire sex, didn't it?
41:20He and Dan made it out to be this tortured act or obligational foreplay before blood drinking.
41:26That is not the case at all.
41:28It's not the capstone of vampiric desires.
41:30That would be the taking of life.
41:32And next would be a good draining, leaving your victim near death and paralyzed for an unhurried escape.
41:38And after that, there's the petticoot, the little drink, the sip.
41:42And after those three, it's sex.
41:45So now you know, the fourth best thing a vampire can do to avoid thinking about the past is to
41:51have sex.
41:52Sex, sex, sex.
41:54And I have had a lot of sex over the years.
41:56It's not all pain and toxicity.
41:58I have an immortal life and I carry with it an immortal erection and I am not ashamed of it.
42:04Sex is fun.
42:05Like the fun I sing about in Longface, which looking back on it now does suck.
42:12I still have residuals coming in, actually.
42:15Carnal pleasure is essential to a vampire's survival.
42:19If only to keep time's baggage from burying you.
42:24Sex with the bellman and Dee and honey trapping baby Jenks.
42:29Probably should have gotten off the seventh floor when I had gotten off.
42:35But I didn't.
42:39I'm getting married in a week.
42:42I'll never forget you.
42:50Law 4.
42:52No vampire shall ever reveal his or her true nature to a mortal.
42:57And let the mortal live.
42:58You do know it's 2025.
43:03Trace the wall, my dear. You'll not want to see this.
43:09The Tooth Team.
43:11The Fang Gang.
43:16I killed a pack of wolves when I was immortal.
43:20I'll most likely tell you about that later as I let it define me for a time.
43:24A normally confining architecture and a thrift store coven galvanized by medieval dogma winners faze me in the least.
43:31I'm building a career that supports my well-being.
43:34But the drug blood in my sex legs and the distracting past my music had unleashed on me put me
43:40at a momentary disadvantage.
43:43I'm in charge of my work-life balance.
43:45Law 4.
43:46As if the Dulac Malloy memoir hadn't outed us all two years ago.
43:50The Dulac.
43:50As if my entire stage show wasn't a bawdy burlesque of is he or isn't he.
43:56As if half the vampire population outside the ruined pool of Detroit wasn't waving the dog gift like red cups
44:02in a piss bar.
44:03Collecting fledglings like they were la bubadoors.
44:06I mean I haven't even told my band I was an actual vampire.
44:10I was just singing my songs and fucking my food and defending myself from the vibrant life choices
44:15I had made on my way from the Auvergne countryside to the eighth floor of this why bother hotel.
44:20And this is how it was all going to end for me.
44:23We are the fang gang.
44:25We are the children of the darkness reborn.
44:30Jesus fucking God.
44:34Armand told the truth if you met him.
44:37What the fuck does that even mean?
44:38I heard there was an after party on the asshole floor.
44:43I like to think I was owed the reinforcements.
44:46Dan and the oddly familiar DJ.
44:49But that's me looking back on it now.
44:51Anything I had done to deserve their timely rescue hadn't happened yet.
44:55I'd be dead I think without Dan.
44:58But then maybe more of the world would still be alive had Dan not rallied his army downstairs.
45:06Consider this sliding door of Dan.
45:08As you decant my blood and devour my words.
45:24It's hard hiding you're a god.
45:27You're for real?
45:29CCTV, eco flush toilets.
45:31IMF freezing your accounts because you have the blood of a patricidal queen inside you.
45:36Hello again.
45:38We have to live off here.
45:40Telemasker dragged me into that.
45:42And once you reveal yourself you have to be on all the time.
45:46And remember every face you've ever met.
45:48And everywhere you go everyone remembers the thing they said to you in the room that you shared.
45:55Were you a stutterer as a child?
45:59This is why gods prefer hiding in the clouds.
46:02There's nothing there.
46:06But water waiting to fall.
46:15So many opportunities to call it a night that night.
46:20After the song unleashed the muses.
46:23After I saw my first soul.
46:26After I was nearly decapitated in a boutique hotel hallway.
46:32After my vampire nature was revealed to the band and my vampire gift winged me away north of the rivers
46:39off of the country.
46:43But I was saved from such rational thought.
46:47Love will do that to you.
46:50love will do that!
47:10love will wipe the pain
47:19I got myself into something I can't get out of.
47:25Music's opened up to that show, but I'm not sure if I can close it again.
47:35I'm not really at my best, but...
47:42It's very nice to see you again.
47:49I like what you've done with your hair, Mike.
47:53Mike.
47:58Mike.
48:01Mike.
48:03Gabriel.
48:07It's not much of a reveal, I guess.
48:10I know it's common gossip now.
48:12The first thing one thinks about when my name comes up.
48:16I assume a privileged individual such as yourself enjoys a little dirt in their sandwich.
48:24So I serve it to you now.
48:27How it felt, Ben.
48:32Fledgling.
48:34Lover.
48:37Mother.
48:40Listen to tracks from the Vampire List ad wherever you stream music.
48:46If you're still listening after the last hour, welcome back.
48:50So bring on the music.
48:52Give me a million more screams.
48:55Do you kill people?
48:57Give me a million more screams.
49:01Let's talk about your mother.
49:04I've been a bad woman.
49:05You've done it in my heart.
49:06My maker called for his mama, and I can't.
49:10Give me a million more screams.
49:15You are caught in great danger with this doctor.
49:19You stole my personal position.
49:21You hired my biographer.
49:38You are listening to The Failures.
49:49Album 8, side A.
49:57At the top of our first episode, we show a scene that is probably happening in real time after a
50:06bunch of catastrophic events have happened.
50:13If you are hearing this now, you must be a very privileged individual.
50:24What makes this season special is that it's still the same characters that you love and know from the previous
50:29seasons.
50:30We're just putting them in an entirely new world.
50:32And as they do in the books and as we do in this show, like the world continues to crack
50:36open larger and larger.
50:38Ooh, just like the plot changes, the whole attitude of the show changes, and we move into this completely crazy
50:49rock and roll world.
50:54He did it again.
50:55A lot of the beauty and elegance that you would usually see him surrounded by is gone.
51:01It feels really grungy and really rough and really raw, and so it was a very fun environment to be
51:07putting him in.
51:13Come to me.
51:13I'm from Montreal.
51:15I am he.
51:17And he is me.
51:18Louis and Lysada FaceTiming, you're probably going to get the sense that Louis is going to come over pretty soon.
51:22They'll probably get back together and work it out.
51:25Nice.
51:25Yeah.
51:26It's nice.
51:27One of the first conversations I had with Roland and Hannah and the writers was that I think Louis has
51:33watched just a ton of YouTube in his time off.
51:37You know, like cat videos, probably Hungryly.
51:45Louis, do you know someone called Daniel Malloy?
51:47Well, the staff finds out about the book, and then that completely throws all those plans out of the window.
51:52One of my favorite things about the second season of Interview with the Vampire is that I burned his laptop.
51:58I didn't know he had it saved in the cloud.
52:00Louis sets fire to a laptop to try and erase the book, but no one told him about the cloud.
52:08I only found out it was coming out a month ago.
52:10You've known for a month, and you talk about me and it to a mortal?
52:13Well, yeah.
52:14Uh, yeah.
52:15Gonna, but, you know?
52:16No, I don't know, Louis.
52:19Please explain yourself.
52:20Both Louis and Lestat are not necessarily happy with the way that either of them were portrayed in the book.
52:25It's like a mix of guilt and probably a sense of vengeance about it.
52:30Lestat sees that book come out.
52:33Lestat sees what he perceives are lies and distortions, mistruths, and he's like, you know what?
52:39I'm gonna set the record straight.
52:41Was he there in 18th century Auvers?
52:43He said you told him that.
52:44Did I threaten Claudia with rape on a train?
52:46No, and impossible.
52:49Daniel Malloy is an investigative journalist of the absolute top shelf.
52:53Who better to refute the book than the man who wrote the book?
52:57He has an incorrigible need to find out what the truth is.
53:02Why do you like the vampire Lestat?
53:04Si el llega a tu pueblo, matale.
53:07I thought there was an after party on the asshole floor.
53:10This isn't just sex, drugs, and rock and roll.
53:13It's sex, drugs, rock and roll, and sucking blood out of people's necks.
53:19You're for real?
53:20What?
53:36I mean, Black and the Quilla was just a great song.
53:39It's about the first kill Lestat made after he reconciled with Louis in New Orleans.
53:45Didn't blink, didn't try to run, I got a real life one.
53:52Particularly in episode one, you do see that he's pushing and pushing to get this sort of
53:57moment of grace, to be completely engulfed in the music.
54:02But just as I was about to bridge the bridge with murder and mayhem, something quite surprising
54:09happened. And that's what he gets from Black Licorice. He does have his first breakdown.
54:15Of many. Muses appeared in my mind and in the now around me.
54:20He realizes that he was the one that was holding them back.
54:24So then all of a sudden it cracks open and the real thing starts to appear.
54:28And that sound I had been grinding them for was finally unleashed.
54:34He started it to be, I'm going to go and tell my story. I'm going to do a rewrite.
54:39This is my version of events. And it's evolved into something different. He's tapped into his past.
54:55I wish one of you so did before.
54:57I'm sorry.
55:27I'm sorry.
