Hurricanes are weather... but are they weird? Damien sells us on picklebacks, Ryan sells us on Tarpon Springs Distillers, and Jess sells us on never leaving the house. Oh, and the reviews for this one are all over the fist, er, scale! Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird series! This season, we're dissecting ‘Heavy Weather: Tempestuous Tales of Stranger Climes.’ In this episode, our featured story is Through The Vortex of a Cyclone by William Hope Hodgson.
Bar Talk (our recommendations):
Jessica is reading Concerning Those Who Have Fallen Asleep by Adam Soto; drinking a Maple Cardamom Old Fashioned with last week's Yellowstone Bourbon.
Damien is reading Devil House by John Darnielle; drinking a pickleback! Jameson Irish whiskey + Grillo's spicy dill pickle brine.
Ryan is reading The Witch of Lime Street by David Jaher; drinking Gramling Woods Rye Malt Whiskey.
If you liked this week’s story, watch The Perfect Storm (2000; dir. Wolfgang Petersen).
Up next: The Boy Who Predicted Earthquakes by Margaret St. Clair.
