Channel your inner C&C Music Factory and get ready for some good vibrations! The trio talks Lovecraftian fishing games, animals sidekicks in media, green-imbuing superpowers, and string theory. Oh, and Ryan is pretty litty y'all. Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird series! This season, we're dissecting our fifth book in the collection, ‘The Ghost Slayers: Thrilling Tales of Occult Detection.’ In this episode, our featured story is: A Psychical Invasion by Algernon Blackwood.
Bar Talk (our recommendations):
Jessica is reading Where I End by Sophie White; drinking Meier's Creek Morning Sun.
Damien is reading The Beast You Are: Stories by Paul Tremblay; drinking Glenlivet Nadurra.
Ryan is playing Dredge (2023 video game); drinking Angel's Envy Port Wine aged whiskey.
If you liked this week’s story, watch Reefer Madness (1936; dir. Louis J. Gasnier).
Up next: The Death Hound by Dion Fortune.
Special thank you to Dr Blake Brandes for our Whiskey and the Weird music!
