NIGHT MATERIALS

There are things worth talking about long after the rest of the world has gone to bed.

Hosted by writer and artist Wolf Johnson, NIGHT MATERIALS is a wandering conversation through the peculiar business of being alive. Art, literature, love, loss, madness, memory, and the beautiful indignities of the human condition. Sometimes there are guests. Sometimes there's a story that ought never to have been told. Occasionally, we arrive somewhere resembling wisdom, though usually by accident and with a few drinks spilled along the way.

Part confession, part conversation, part love letter to the gloriously imperfect, NIGHT MATERIALS welcomes artists, outsiders, romantics, reprobates, and anybody who's ever felt themselves a stranger in broad daylight.

The podcast is an extension of Night Materials, an independent literary and artistic world with its own peculiar inhabitants, late-night correspondence, and a gathering of souls known as the Night Shift.

Come as you are. There's room at the table.

  • 007 — Don't Go Chasing Waterfalls
    2026/10/30

    I've been thinking about propaganda, about art and the extraordinary power of symbols, and how we've come to surrender so much of our imagination to the people who manufacture the things we consume. A corporation can survive the loss of its executives, its factories, even great fortunes, but what becomes of it when the symbol itself is made worthless? There's something in that worth considering. The artist has a peculiar advantage in these matters, being permitted to speak in a language that can mean a hundred different things to a hundred different people, and I wonder whether we've made sufficient use of that privilege.

    Anyway, I'm lying on this goddamn cot again, Halloween is approaching, and the accumulated deprivation of sleep is beginning to interfere with the ordinary arrangement of things. There's a great deal on my mind, although I seem to be losing my ability to keep any of it in one place.

    Don't go chasing waterfalls.

  • 006 — Parking Privileges
    2026/10/29

    A warning has been left on my windshield, informing me that my parking privileges are in jeopardy. Parking privileges. Christ almighty. As though there were some great honour in leaving a Ford Escape overnight in an industrial parking lot in Etobicoke.

    So here I sit, waiting for the gentleman responsible to come wandering out of his security office and explain himself. I have a few questions, and increasingly fewer hours of sleep with which to exercise the patience ordinarily required to ask them politely.

    It's a beautiful autumn evening, at least. The planes are passing overhead, the debt is nearly paid, and there's still some life to be found among the lunatics and dreamers.

  • 005 — Switch
    2026/10/28

    Eleven fourteen on a Tuesday night and I'm back on this goddamn cot, a miserable arrangement of canvas and metal that has been slowly conspiring against my spine for the better part of a month. I don't suppose I've slept more than a few hours at a time in weeks, and whatever faculties I've managed to preserve are beginning to behave in ways I don't entirely recognize. But there have been some good people looking after me, some unexpected graces amid the wreckage of recent days, and I find myself profoundly grateful for them, even as the rest of me seems determined to come apart.

    So I lie here watching the ceiling fan turn and letting my mind go where it will, back through the years and into the company of old bastards, strange grievances, and memories that have no particular business visiting me at this hour. Somewhere along the way, I begin to feel that familiar switch, when the warmth goes out of things and the machinery in my head starts operating according to some other domain. I don't know. Maybe it's the exhaustion. Maybe I've just been awake too damn long.
