Dr Guy Mankowski On His Eye-Opening But Somewhat Controversial Biography of Former Hole Bassist Kristen Pfaff

EP43 → dr. guy mankowski, psychologist, senior lecturer in creative writing at the university of lincoln, author of several books including how i left the national grid, albion’s secret history, and former lead singer of the band alba nova. he joins me to discuss his eye-opening and at times controversial biography of former hole bassist kristen pfaff…and the remarkable woman behind the music.when he reached out and asked if i’d be interested in talking about his kristen pfaff project, i was immediately curious…but i also had questions.working with the private writings of someone who died so young is a huge responsibility. unlike reading the journals of someone from centuries ago, many of the people in kristen’s life are still here. they have families, their own memories, and their own experiences. before i even opened the manuscript, i genuinely found myself wondering what kind of story this was trying to tell.he kindly sent me an advance copy of the manuscript, and something unexpected happened.what completely hooked me wasn’t the tapes or the mythology that has surrounded the grunge scene for decades…it was the first half of the book, before seattle, where kristen comes to life through her own essays, journals, family memories, photographs, and the people who knew and loved her.once the story reaches seattle, it naturally enters a world that, at best, was experienced through foggy lenses. addiction, grief, youth, trauma, fame…everyone lived that period differently, and recollections naturally vary.because of that, i found myself far more interested in reading kristen in her own words…from her teenage years through university, watching her empathy, curiosity, and remarkable intelligence reveal themselves long before the world knew her as the bassist of hole.by the time i finished reading, i wasn’t thinking about headlines or controversy anymore. i finished it with a genuine sense of mourning for someone i finally felt i knew…not simply as the bassist of hole, but as a daughter, sister, student, activist, counselor, writer, and remarkably empathetic human being.that’s the conversation this book led me to have.

EP41 → Brian Holwerda, Blackout Party, Dark Winged Bird & The Weird Roads That Lead Us Back To Artthis week, i’m joined by singer-songwriter Brian Holwerda… former Blackout Party frontman, Montana wilderness dweller, fellow music obsessive, and one of the genuinely kind humans to come out of the San Diego music scene…we talk about the old Casbah days… hauling gear through alleyways… “bro-adies”… photographing bands before iphones existed… and that very specific era of San Diego music where everybody showed up for each other, even if there were only fifteen people in the room…we get into Brian’s early years growing up in the Bay Area, chasing music in Los Angeles during the eyeliner-and-demo-deal era, eventually landing in Nashville, and finally finding peace living out in Montana surrounded by rivers, bison, horses, dogs, snakes, and actual silence…a big part of this conversation centers around our friend TiLo / Tim Lowman… his creativity, warmth, humor, flute playing, Low Volts, motorcycles, community, and the enormous impact he had on so many people around him. we talk grief… memory… getting older… and the strange reality that sometimes you don’t realize how much a person mattered until they’re suddenly gone…we also spend a lot of time talking about art and authenticity in the age of algorithms… AI-generated music… social media… touring… virality… and why maybe having twenty real people in a room still means more than a million passive clicks online…there are also tangents involving Gene Wilder, giant african land snails, crocodiles escaping during Bangkok floods, pigeon hospitals, Montana ranch life, The Cure, Smashing Pumpkins, parenting, songwriting, and why both of us seem increasingly interested in disappearing into the woods to avoid excessive peopling…A conversation about music, memory, friendship, loss, and the weird roads that somehow still lead us back to art… Sayonara Cupcake is a community for music + art lovers.
