Episode Details

J. Timothy Hunt, a screenwriter, novelist, journalist, and performer whose creative life has been anything but linear—and whose latest book opens the door to a deeply personal and compelling conversation your Unplugged & Uncut audience would appreciate.Timothy has worked behind the scenes and on set in film and television, crossing paths with industry icons like Viola Davis and Martin Sheen, while also building a successful writing career across journalism, fiction, screenwriting, and children’s literature. But alongside the professional milestones is a much more raw story—one shaped by childhood trauma, bullying, and an eating disorder that followed him into adulthood.Those lived experiences inform his new psychological thriller, The Museum of Lies, a novel centered on memory, how it fractures, how it protects us, and how it sometimes betrays us. The book follows a man whose memories of his childhood and mother are challenged by a therapist with questionable motives, forcing him and the reader to confront an uncomfortable question: what if the story we tell ourselves isn’t true, but it’s the only one that keeps us standing?
