GET LIT E400 with SHASHI BHAT

Get Lit ·

2024/07/18

FOUR HUNDRED, PEOPLE That’s wild. As I mentioned on the show last week, I’m looking at winding the show down. The book-a-week reading pace has really interrupted my writing time. Then again, when I say “winding down” I mean…maybe episode 500? Which is about 100 books away? I imagine after I do that, I’ll start up a new pod, likely about writing, but not likely on a weekly basis. In the meantime to celebrate 400 we have Shashi Bhat, here to talk about her excellent collection of stories, Death by A

Get Lit ·

2024/06/20

Hey folks! Seems every time I read a Canadian horror book, I’m floored. Last time it was Andrew F. Sullivan‘s The Marigold. Now it’s A.G.A. Wilmot‘s Withered. Big ups to ECW Press, I guess!

Choi, then introduce Elamin Abdelmahmoud and Peter Mansbridge. Friday/Sat/Sun were twice as busy with events, a few too many concerts (Cadence Weapon and Raven? I'm weird) and a birthday party to cap it all off (congrats Liz Worth!) Now I get to...breathe. This week we speak with Greg Rhyno. His newest, Who By Fire, is the first in the
