Embark on a journey into the chilling depths of Michael Shea's weird fiction with the insightful Danny Anderson as our guide. As we unravel Shea's unique spin on cosmic horror, you'll discover how this master of the macabre carved out a space that's both hauntingly familiar and alarmingly otherworldly. Together, we illuminate the dark corners of class struggle and revolution woven into the fabric of Shea's narratives, and celebrate the unorthodox heroes that populate his tales. This episode promises to draw you into a discussion that's as profound as it is unsettling, showcasing the enduring power and relevance of Shea's stories in today's weird fiction landscape.Danny and I navigate through Shea's metafictional world, where the barrier between the real and the imagined thins to a mere wisp, and the monstrous entities of Lovecraftian lore take on an almost palpable presence. We delve into the craft of Shea's storytelling, reflecting on his portrayal of characters shaped by raw experience rather than literary convention, and how this lends a gripping authenticity to his work. Through our conversation, you'll appreciate the finesse with which Shea balances gritty social commentary with the ineffable horror of the unknown, challenging you to reconsider the very nature of horror narrative.As we cap off our exploration, we pay homage to Shea's intricate narrative voice and the haunting themes that stitch his work together. Delving into the power of witnessing, the complexities of class dynamics, and the subversion of Lovecraft's cosmic indifference, we uncover the layers that make Shea's fiction resonate so deeply. And as we acknowledge the impact of authors like T.E.D. Klein and Caitlín R. Kiernan, we also tip our hats to Mark Fisher's critical insight, offering a fresh perspective on the weird and the eerie a decade after his influential essay. Prepare to be captivated by a conversation that not only celebrates a literary maestro's legacy but also plunges into the philosophical undercurrents of horror and humanity.

The 2022 Christian Humanist Halloween crossover is here! This year, Nathan Gilmour and Carter Smith-Stepper join Danny Anderson for a discussion of John Carpenter's under-rated classic Prince of Darkness. The film presents an alternative theological universe in which Satan has spent millenia as the prisoner of a secret sect of the Catholic Church. As he begins to stir, a group of academics, along with a priest, join together to try and stop him from bringing his father, an ancient dark god, back to Earth. The film has heavy Lovecraftian themes and Carter, Nathan, and Danny have a spirited (and largely unresolved) theological debate about cosmic horror.
