I'm Niala Boodhoo, 3 00:00:08,050 --> 00:00:09,301 and my guest is Jacob Malco. 4 00:00:09,384 --> 00:00:11,220 He's the creator of three graphic novels. 5 00:00:11,303 --> 00:00:14,223 His newest, Obscurity, is just out. 6 00:00:14,306 --> 00:00:17,726 Jacob, when you look at what happened between your first book, Conjugality, 7 00:00:17,809 --> 00:00:20,312 being such a success, being made into a movie, 8 00:00:20,395 --> 00:00:22,439 following that up with Infidelity, 9 00:00:22,522 --> 00:00:25,776 and the actual infidelity that happened in your life, 10 00:00:25,859 --> 00:00:29,238 I wonder how you feel like that affected your work. 11 00:00:29,321 --> 00:00:33,242 Yeah, the love story of Conjugality was... was compelling and sweet, 12 00:00:33,325 --> 00:00:35,369 and it... and it was real. It was a real thing. 13 00:00:35,452 --> 00:00:38,705 And meeting somebody else... 14 00:00:38,789 --> 00:00:41,917 I don't know how that happens, but it happens to a lot of people, 15 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,337 I'm not unusual in that, and the infidelity was what it was, 16 00:00:45,420 --> 00:00:47,506 but I did honor that love. 17 00:00:47,589 --> 00:00:51,093 Yeah, I left my first wife, and I went with somebody else, 18 00:00:51,176 --> 00:00:52,803 but that's, you know, that happens, you know, so... 19 00:00:52,886 --> 00:00:55,973 Well, I think it happens. I think most people don't write about it, 20 00:00:56,056 --> 00:00:59,393 so I wonder... And you're talking about how it affected people. 21 00:00:59,476 --> 00:01:02,437 Do you talk to your first wife or how did she feel about it? 22 00:01:02,563 --> 00:01:04,439 - I don't talk to either of them. - So... 23 00:01:04,523 --> 00:01:05,649 I don't... you know, I don't have kids, 24 00:01:05,732 --> 00:01:08,402 so I think that makes it easier not to talk to them. 25 00:01:08,485 --> 00:01:11,947 It's not really my choice. Yeah, obviously, you know, the, uh... 26 00:01:12,030 --> 00:01:14,241 the first wife don't want to have anything to do with me, 27 00:01:14,324 --> 00:01:16,368 and, uh, the second one, I don't know, you know. 28 00:01:16,451 --> 00:01:20,539 So no feedback on how they've been portrayed in your works? 29 00:01:20,622 --> 00:01:22,124 Yeah, there's been feedback. 30 00:01:22,207 --> 00:01:26,128 Uh... it's a price you pay, you know, I mean... 31 00:01:26,211 --> 00:01:28,463 I write about myself. I don't know, really, how else to do it. 32 00:01:28,547 --> 00:01:31,174 My life is really the... where... the source of my... 33 00:01:31,258 --> 00:01:33,969 my creativity and what happens in my life, so... 34 00:01:34,052 --> 00:01:38,015 it's had effect on people in my life, it does, 35 00:01:38,098 --> 00:01:41,810 and, uh, I mean, I can take responsibility to a certain degree, 36 00:01:41,893 --> 00:01:45,314 but, uh, I... I guess they, you know... 37 00:01:45,397 --> 00:01:48,108 Well, they certainly know goin' in now... 38 00:01:48,191 --> 00:01:50,819 whoever might... might choose to do that. 39 00:01:50,902 --> 00:01:53,530 Well, and that's what, Jacob, I mean, that brings us to Obscurity and... 40 00:01:53,614 --> 00:01:56,533 I mean, you have to ask... I have to ask about the title. 41 00:01:56,617 --> 00:01:59,536 I mean, is that, you think, a reflection of where you're at right now? 42 00:02:00,829 --> 00:02:02,873 Well, you know, you... 43 00:02:02,956 --> 00:02:06,960 At some point when you're an artist of any kind, you know, 44 00:02:07,044 --> 00:02:10,881 you want to be relevant, so when you feel that slipping away... 45 00:02:10,964 --> 00:02:15,886 it's a little... sad. 46 00:02:15,969 --> 00:02:18,430 and it's a little... frustrating, 47 00:02:18,513 --> 00:02:19,931 and also scary, you know. 48 00:02:20,015 --> 00:02:22,267 So... so, I don't know... 49 00:02:24,645 --> 00:02:26,355 You know, I don't... 50 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:27,814 What was the question again? 51 00:02:34,321 --> 00:02:35,322 Hi. 52 00:02:35,405 --> 00:02:37,074 - Hey, Angie, what's happenin'? - Hi, Jacob. 53 00:02:37,157 --> 00:02:39,618 - You look pretty. - Thank you. 54 00:02:39,701 --> 00:02:41,620 Have you ever, uh, been to this place before? 55 00:02:41,703 --> 00:02:43,914 Nope.

I'll answer questions, I'll talk. 155 00:07:08,845 --> 00:07:10,847 I just... The lack of irony 156 00:07:10,931 --> 00:07:13,183 between this event and the title of my new book is just 157 00:07:13,266 --> 00:07:14,935 too much for me to handle right now. 158 00:07:15,018 --> 00:07:17,437 Right. So, uh, can we do that? 159 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,690 More importantly, is, um... 160 00:07:20,774 --> 00:07:23,068 can we just do that, 'cause it's like... 161 00:07:23,151 --> 00:07:25,779 Two questions. If we do that, can I still get paid, 162 00:07:25,862 --> 00:07:27,739 and can we just do that? 163 00:07:27,822 --> 00:07:31,910 Dave? Can we just go to a... It would be fun, right? 164 00:07:31,993 --> 00:07:35,830 And I guess we could open this up to, uh, after the bottles are done, 165 00:07:35,914 --> 00:07:37,832 we could open it to question and answer. 166 00:07:37,916 --> 00:07:39,584 Really? Are we really gonna do like the... 167 00:07:39,668 --> 00:07:41,586 - Have to do a little something. - All right, I have a question. 168 00:07:41,670 --> 00:07:43,797 Yes, young lady up front. 169 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,216 - What's...
