Podsothoth: A Lovecraft Book Club
Podsothoth is a horror and comedy podcast dedicated to the works (and foibles) of H.P. Lovecraft, hosted by recovering goth and internet D-lister celebrity, Tod Beardsley. Every Lovecraft story will be covered over two episodes each. First, Tod will read the story with minimal production, and ideal for people who just want to hear Lovecraft's words. This is the horror part. Following each story is a discussion of, about, and around that story, and have plenty of jokes and giggles. This is the comedy part.

30: The Hound (Discussion)
In which Tod and Claire discuss The Hound, by HP Lovecraft, which was first published in the February, 1924 issue of Weird Tales. This episode is a little swearier than most, so kids, don't say these words in school. The other, usual content warnings apply, including subjects of drug use, suicide, and assorted gothery.
You can read about the real-life unnamable museum in the The Washington Post, or head over to Boadgamegeek to check out Cthulhu: Death May Die.
But most importantly, you can head over to https://bit.ly/podsothoth-tickets to get your tickets to our upcoming London show on Februray 15, 2023! It's a couple clicks from there, but they're only £12, which is not even 15 dollars in real money. Also, we expect it to be a pretty Covid-safe event -- judging by ticket sales so far, I'm pretty certain you can keep a 2 meter distance from other audience members.
You can read up on the festival and other things going on that week at https://londonlovecraft.com, and I urge you to do so -- especially Reanimator: The Bloody Musical on February 14th, which we'll be at as well!
