  • The Westerns of Clint Eastwood - with 'Clint' Biographer Shawn Levy
    2025/07/01

    A towering figure in the history of the Western, Clint Eastwood redefined the image of the lone hero with his portrayal of the flint-eyed, morally ambiguous gunslinger in Sergio Leone's influential “Dollars Trilogy.” Later, as a director, he fused the stylized detachment of the Italian subgenre with the classic structure of the Hollywood Western — and created a series of unforgettable films that deconstructed the myths of the Old West and earned critical acclaim, including the Academy Award for Best Picture. On this very special episode, bestselling author Shawn Levy joins us to discuss his brand new biography, Clint: The Man and the Movies.

    And stick around for a bonus interview with returning guest Mark Swan, who shares his thoughts about Eastwood’s Westerns and offers a behind-the-scenes look at his new album, All the Gold in the West!
