Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a brand-new podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird Series! First up, the first book in the series ‘From the Depths and Other Strange Tales of the Sea’ and we’re starting with the story ‘From the Depths’ by F Britten Austin.
Bar Talk (our recommendations):
Ryan is reading ‘There Is No Death, There Are No Dead: Tales of Spiritualism Horror’ edited by Aaron J. French and Jess Landry; drinking The Bowmore 12 Yr Old.
Jessica is reading ‘I Hold a Wolf by the Ears’ by Laura Van Den Berg; drinking Far North Spirits rye whiskey.
Damien is watching Malignant (2021, dir. James Wan); drinking Kaiyo Whisky aged in Mizunara oak.
