The West Passage And Occulted Knowledge

DEATH // SENTENCE ·

2024/09/17

On this episode, Langdon and Eden are forced to tackle the so-called "Hegelian E-girl Council" and explain why they suck. While they tackle them. To the ground. Then, they talk about the tantalizing, subtle, and down-right inimitable The West Passage. Weird fantasy, even weirder honey, and the weirdest eldritch beings in the form of Ladies, plus all the occulted, esoteric lore you could crave. Music played: Oh Hiroshima - Swans In A Field

DEATH // SENTENCE ·

2024/09/03

In this solo episode, Eden talks about the Arthurian myth and its weird potentialities by covering Lev Grossman's The Bright Sword. Gender-bending, political disorder, and why weird fantasy matters and, of course, sick ass swords and cool mage duels!Eden's essay on the political uses of science fiction: https://www.notthesky.com/posts/essays/the-men-who-sold-the-moon/ Eden's essay on The Green Knight: https://www.notthesky.com/posts/essays/the-knight-is-always-greener/ Music played: Meer - This

2024/08/17

In this episode, Langdon and Eden discuss the merits, oddities, and uses of mediocrity before covering a mediocre, but fun, book from an excellent author, Roger Zelazny.

Michael Swanwick - Stations of the Tide

DEATH // SENTENCE ·

2024/08/15

We definitely didn't record this three months ago and only remembered to post this now! Langdon's computer definitely didn't die at the end! Stations of the Tide is DEFINITELY an excellent and weird book and Spring is definitely NOT the best season (that last part is true, actually)! Music played - BIG | BRAVE - I felt a funeral https://bigbrave.bandcamp.com/track/i-felt-a-funeral And So I Watch You From Afar - North Coast Megafauna https://asiwyfa.bandcamp.com/track/north-coast-megafauna

Lydia Kiesling - Mobility

DEATH // SENTENCE ·

2024/08/13

In Mobility, Lydia Kiesling really bildungs the heck out of a Roman. Bunny is a foreign-service brat who wants a conventional life and, spoilers, she gets one - but it's a conventional life while the oil industry and American imperialism kills the planet. Music by Orgone.

Jon Greenaway - Capitalism: A Horror Story

DEATH // SENTENCE ·

2024/07/10

What if the real horror story didn't involve skeletons and boggarts and whatnot... what if the real horror was your boss? There is probably more to returning guest Jon Greenaway's book Capitalism: A Horror Story than that, but we mostly talk about how sick the Saw films were.Music by Valerian Swing

Woodworm, Resentment, and the Viciousness of Discourse

DEATH // SENTENCE ·

2024/06/25

Langdon and Eden cover the weird, gothic, Catholic-horror, and unsettling Woodworm by Layla Martinez. But first, they do the unthinkable and wade into the discourse around Litvrgy. There, they discuss theosophy, the limitations and pitfalls of Litvrgy's ideas, but also the vicious instinct of the dogpile and the vociferous cycle of discourse.Music played: Vojdi - Godspeed https://vojdi.bandcamp.com/track/godspeed REZN - Indigo https://rezzzn.bandcamp.com/track/indigo

DEATH // SENTENCE ·

2024/05/22

Spencer Sunshine joins us to talk about a book that is as cheery as his name suggests: it has Nazis, Industrial Music, Child P*rnography, Charles Manson, Neo-folk, Black Metal, At*mwaffen. It appears that the edgy Feral House guys of the 80s and 90s weren't ironic Nazis - they were Nazi Nazis, and Spencer has the receipts.
