Episode 6: We Appreciate Power, with Tamsin Davis-Langley

3 days ago

This episode, I'm joined by queersoteric hero Tamsin Davis-Langley to talk about one of the Great Questions of our era. Grimes or Poppy?  That's where we start, anyway. But it gives us an inroad to talking about billionaire Singularity enthusiasts, whether consciousness is an emergent phenomenon, the shocking history of sideburns and sandwiches, and how you get a banging pop tune inspired by the sort of people who want us dead.  Stick around for the discourse, and then go and find Tamsin's book (writing as Misha Magdalene) Outside the Charmed Circle.

Episode 3: Bodies in Space, with Gwendolyn Kiste

Monday Jul 18, 2022

It's episode 3! I'm super honoured to have with me multiple award winning author and official Nicest Person in Horror Gwendolyn Kiste. I talk with Gwendolyn – writer of The Rust Maidens, Boneset and Feathers, And Her Smile Will Untether the Universe and others – about the modern Gothic, the relationship of the human body to its environment and some other stuff, because we like digressions, like what an ambry is. You should totally go and look at gwendolynkiste.com: her new novel, Reluctant Immortals, has just come out and is well worth your time.

Episode 2: The Good For Her Cinematic Universe, with Eve Elizabeth Moriarty

Monday Jul 11, 2022

In this week's episode, I'm joined in a flurry of tripartite author names by my pal Eve Elizabeth Moriarty, to talk about the Good For Her Cinematic Universe: the "girl bossification" of horror, bad takes about The Witch (2015), Midsommar (2019) and Promising Young Woman (2020), and how all these things reflect more than just dodgy critique.  Eve's take on Midsommar can be found here.
