Episode Summary

Season Three kicks off with a bang! I mean, a squish. Two squishes, actually. A very big squish and a very small squish. Also, a cat-fly. Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird Series! This season, we're dissecting our third book in the series ‘Promethean Horrors: Classic Tales of Mad Science.’ In this episode, our featured story is: 'The Fly' by George Langelaan.
