ANDREW McBRIDE INTERVIEWED BY PAUL BISHOP ON THE SIX GUN JUSTICE PODCAST

 I was honoured to be the guest on the much-praised SIX GUN JUSTICE PODCAST.

 Two acclaimed western novelists, PAUL BISHOP and RICHARD PROSCH, have been running the SIX GUN JUSTICE podcast for a while, where the co-hosts look at most things western: western history and fiction, TV, film, radio and books (including interviews with authors, publishers etc.) So far they’ve freewheeled through a wide range of topics from how icons like Buffalo Bill and Custer have been depicted on screen and in books, to TV western shows well-known and obscure (‘Rawhide’ ‘Lancer’) western-themed comics and memorabilia, western songs (‘Ghost Riders in the Sky’) to ‘shooting the breeze’ with authors both new and established, from JAMES REASONER to WAYNE D. DUNDEE.

I was interviewed for 25 minutes by PAUL BISHOP for the SIX GUN JUSTICE PODCAST episode 210, broadcast on November 14^th 2022, titled THE WORLDWIDE WEST TOUR: ENGLAND – PART 2

Paul was a police detective with the Los Angeles Police Department for 35 years and was twice selected as LAPD's Detective of the Year. This served him well in his police procedural and mystery novels, including his series about female detective Fey Croaker. He’s also written screenplays.

 I’ve done AUTHOR FAVOURITES BLOGS for two of Paul’s novels:

LIE CATCHERS:

 Some reviews of LIE CATCHERS:

‘"Lie Catchers" is something else. This is a book which goes way beyond the typical police story. … into psychological aspects rarely used in a "cop" book… Rarely will you find the kind of insight that Bishop demonstrates in this truly 5-star book.’

 ‘Wonderfully well-crafted police procedural with two main characters who leap off the page… unique, suspenseful, surprising, insightful, psychologically complex and wonderfully written.’

and HOT PURSUIT

Reviews for HOT PURSUIT:

 ‘Could hardly be better.’

 ‘The most exciting caper you're likely to find in print this year.’

 ‘A masterpiece.’

 ‘A spellbinding story.’

I had great fun chatting with Paul. He was able to make me less nervous than I usually am doing these things. We talked about my critically-acclaimed new western novel CIMARRÓN,

THE HIGH CHAPARRAL,

The ground-breaking western novel BLOOD BROTHER by ELLIOTT ARNOLD

English western writer MATT CHISHOLM, (real name PETER WATTS) author of the highly successful McALLISTER series among others

Another best-selling western author born in England, J.T. EDSON,

LOUIS L’AMOUR,

my writing process,

whether gunfights ever happened as Hollywood depicts them

and British attempts to ‘do’ westerns on film and TV, including the episode ‘Living in Harmony’ of the cult British TV series ‘THE PRISONER.’

 I also name-check two fine English authors, PHILIP CAVENEY (author of thrillers and children’s books) and western writer DEREK RUTHERFORD.

PETER BRANDVOLD, acclaimed, award-winning and best-selling western author on THE SIX GUN JUSTICE PODCAST:

‘…Simply the best western podcast going. Paul and Rich know their stuff, and the deep dives into the genre along with conversations with today’s top-of-the-line western professionals make the show a weekly must-listen.’
