A perfect inroduction or companion to the work of Lovecraft
Suited in equal measure to veterans and newcomers to H P Lovecraft's weird tales, this podcast is regularly informative, entertaining and absorbing. The hosts are unwilling to gloss over the unsavoury or offensive aspects to Lovecraft's writing, and unafraid to call him out when his writing is below par. However they also have an obvious deep respect, love for, and connection to his work. Each episode can be treated as a kind of book club - read the story, then listen to the podcast to hear thoughts on the plot, pacing, history, where it fits in the mythos. The warm and genuine banter between the hosts means even the most dire stories are made to offer some entertainment.

Of all the podcasts covering genre literature that I've heard, this is the absolute best. Chris and Chad bring a lot of knowledge and humor into the show, and all went to make it atmospheric and spooky or breezy and funny. This is top-notch stuff -- required listening for HPL fans in...Read full review »
