The Collier Landry Show

Don't Touch My Radio

I’m Collier Landry. I survived a childhood shaped by trauma—and spent my adult life learning how to build a real life beyond it. This show isn’t about reliving the past. It’s about what comes after survival. Here, I explore the ongoing work of building a grounded, meaningful life through creativity, discipline, and honest conversation. I talk about mental health, identity, relationships, art, and the practical realities of rebuilding after adversity—without quick fixes or performative vulnerability. My story has been told publicly, but this space is focused on the life I built beyond it. I share what I’ve learned not because I have all the answers, but because I know what it means to feel fractured—and what it takes to keep going. You’re not broken. You’re not alone. And you’re not done yet.

    My Father Died in Prison: Grief, Relief & Ending the Trauma Cycle

    My father died in prison. In this episode of The Collier Landry Show, I talk about the complicated reality of what that means for me: the grief, the relief, the confusion, the old wounds, and the strange finality of losing the man who murdered my mother and shaped so much of my life through trauma. This isn’t a simple story, and it isn’t a simple loss. I share what happened when I got the call, how I navigated conversations with prison staff and family, what it brought up emotionally, and why this moment feels like both an ending and the beginning of something else. I also talk about guilt, unresolved grief, generational trauma, and the ritual I may create with my father’s ashes as a way to finally put part of this story to rest. If you’ve ever had to grieve someone who also caused deep harm, this conversation is for you. Welcome to The Collier Landry Show, where we explore healing, creativity, and the real work of building a meaningful life after trauma.

    Movie Talk: Inside Casting, Tax Incentives & Netflix vs. Warners

    What Casting Directors Really Do + Tax Incentives Explained (California, Mexico, Illinois) + Netflix/Warner Bros Debate On Episode 4 of the Movie Talk podcast, John and Collier discuss his in-progress documentary about C++ (and Boost), its widespread use in modern technology, and related security concerns and data breaches, including Microsoft’s stated plan to move away from C++ by 2030. They then shift to the newly recognized Oscars casting category and break down what casting directors do, with practical advice for actors on virtual auditions—arguing that slate placement and small “rules” matter far less than authenticity—and share audition stories involving Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Cedric the Entertainer, and a film example about winning a role by bringing genuine personality. The episode also explains film/TV tax incentives (refundable, transferable, and non-refundable credits) and reviews new incentives in Mexico, California’s expanded program, and Illinois’s update, before briefly debating a potential Netflix-Paramount-Warner Bros consolidation and its implications for theatrical releases.
