Summary

Castle Rat is a self-described "medieval fantasy metal band" led by our guest, Riley Pinkerton. In her stage persona as "The Rat Queen," Pinkerton is a sword-wielding heroine on a mission to expand and defend 'The Realm' from those who seek to destroy it. Off stage, she's a friendly, glue-gun wielding creative arts kid, firmly grounded in the real world. She's here to talk about the band's most recent concept album, The Bestiary, why she feels that the body positive fantasy art of Frank Frazetta was actually empowering to women, and how she and her band all get a good laugh out of watchingl the film, This Is Spinal Tap.
