Is it a story or a trailer? Plus, our warm and cozy hosts discuss their most bone-chilling moments, eating Jake Gyllenhaal, as well as the hardest video game Ryan's ever played. 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: ‘Heavy Weather: Tempestuous Tales of Stranger Climes.’ In this episode, our featured story is The Great Snow by Richard Jefferies.
Bar Talk (our recommendations):
Jessica is reading Jawbone by Mónica Ojeda; drinking Glenlivet 12 Year.
Damien is watching Pearl (2022; dir. Ti West); drinking a whole bunch of Mai Tais.
Ryan is reading Flowers for the Sea by Zin E. Rocklyn; drinking a brown sugar Old Fashioned.
If you liked this week’s story, play Frostpunk (2018 video game; 11 Bit Studios).
Up next: Summer Snow Storm by Adam Chase.
