Hannah Brown and Chris McLeish are two creatives from the Gothic city, Glasgow. Their fascination with all things gothic began at a young age but now as twenty-somethings they want to share their thoughts and feelings.
From murder to literature, ghosts to architecture and maybe even the occasional film chat, they've got all your gothic interests covered.

A Hobby Job Biscuit (The Barras Wee Eddie & Charles Dawson's Missing Link)
Bonjour bonjour bonjour!
We are back, witches, with another episode!
Chris tells us about the death of one Wee Eddie who ran an interesting stall at the Glasgow Barras and Hannah talks about Charles Dawson and his attempted to fill in the missing link gaps of human evolution. -
Orr, Not Arr (Williamina Fleming and Angus Sinclair)
Look who's back, babaaaaay!
This week we shake things up a but with a slightly different format. You'll continue to get two stories per episode but the nonsense chat at the start will be briefer so we can focus on the Scottish gothic business. We have also introduced Red Break, an interval between stories where we give a recommendation each. We're talking books, TV, podcasts, places to visit. The works!
Hannah kicks things off with the story of bad-ass woman and amazing astrologist, Williamina Fleming.
Chris then talks us through his hometown murder committed by renowned killer, Angus Sinclair -

Practically Made of Carrots (Cotard Delusion and John Rae)

Customer Reviews
A Great Wee Gothic Show
Absolutely love listening to this podcast. The two presenters Hannah and Chris are the friends I would love to have. Each episode is like a catch up with kindred spirits, interesting, funny, spooky and educational. Looking for a new podcast? Do you love/interested in history, gothic, horror, theatre and the paranormal? I urge you to give this a listen.
Good fun
A podcast that is fun to listen to, informative and hilarious. You’ll learn so much about gothic history and ghosts and most things macabre. Highly recommend
Attend the tale of a Wee Bit Gothic
Perfect combination of informative, gruesome and silliness!! Hannah and Chris captivate your attention from the moment they greet each other!! The way they, so articulately, portray tales and legends has you laughing and gasping in awe at every turn! If you want to learn some of Britain’s (mainly Scotland’s) darker moments of history in a way that is suitable and fun for the whole family, dive on in! The water’s swell! 😊
