What would a Russian fairytale as dark as rancid tree sap be without an old shaman woman conjuring the ghosts of dead prisoners and laying them to rest on the Road of Bones?? Right, and yet we forgot to talk about her. OOPS. Pairing up with this, we explore New Riff once more.

"What We Forgot About The Hollow Places" - Oopsisode

Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast ·

2022/09/23

With it being such a master class in fast paced cosmic horror fiction, it might be better to call it what we wished we could forget. Some of those images are never coming out of our brains, but we loved it. In the epsiode we will be drinking to it!

Khan once said that it is very cold in space, but he'd never been on the Road of Bones in Siberia! In this novel by Christopher Golden, we will explore the bleakness of the coldest inhabited place on Earth, and the folklore that resides there with the people in this fast paced, hard hitting, unapologetically terrifying book! To keep our spirits warm, we will be sampling Barrel Armida Bourbon once again. We tried this over a year ago, and we're going to see if we taste something different this

"What We Forgot About Bag of Bones" - Oopsisode

Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast ·

2022/08/19

What could we possibly forget about Bag of Bones? Well, since it's a Stephen King book and we can't manage to even get through half of it in the main episode? Yeah, it feels better to just say, pretty much most of it. But in this oopsisode, we focus on just one thing (out of the 500) that we didn't get to discuss.

Once again, Stephen and Mark return to the universe of Stephen King in this massively surprising and haunting tale of ghosts, racism, and the sins of the father.

Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast ·

2022/07/29

Stephen and Mark take a romp through time and space, through relationships lost and found, through paradoxes and moral dilemmas. Cosmic anamolies and personal inevitabilities abound in the wonderfully haunting and lyrical story by Emily St. John Mandel. "Sea of Tranquility" is anything but, and we'll need the help of none other than Scottie Pippen of the Chicago Bulls (or at least his bourbon) to get us through it all.

It's like Alma Katsu Month in the House of Stephen and Mark! Because we have enjoyed it so much (and it's fun to go back to episode 4). Keep in mind that we did this episode in November of 2020, in the midst of lockdown time in Illinois. Take a re-listen with the beauty of hindsight.
