Predicting the future of technology, films with a high body count, the surveillance state, and the world's smallest water decanter (aka a glass, Ryan; stop playing) - it's all in this week's ep covering a Christopher Nolan wannabe! Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird series! This season, we're transmitting our sixth book in the collection, ‘The Night Wire: And Other Tales of Weird Media,’ edited by Aaron Worth. In this episode, our featured story is: The Eidoloscope by Robert Duncan Milne.
Bar Talk (our recommendations):
Jessica is reading A Guest in the House by Emily Caroll; drinking Peerless Kentucky Straight Bourbon.
Damien is reading The Boatman's Daughter by Andy Davidson; drinking Glenfiddich 12.
Ryan is watching the original John Wick; drinking the Bowmore 12.
