Jess thinks this one is Flubber, Damien thinks it's Dracula's origin story, Ryan thinks it's element #5. See why they're all correct. Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird Series! This season, we're exploring our second book in the series ‘Crawling Horror: Creeping Tales of the Insect Weird.’ In this episode, our featured tale is: 'The Blue Beetle: A Confession" by A. G. Gray, Jun.

Jessica is reading The Nice House on the Lake, Vol. 1 by James Tynion IV, Álvaro Martínez Bueno & Jordie Bellaire; drinking Meier's Creek Honey Kölsch.
Damien is reading Severance by Ling Ma; drinking The Glenlivet Nadurra.
Ryan is watching Hellbender (2021, dir. Adams/Adams/Poser); drinking Glenmorangie, 10 yr.
