Wolf Hall Pt1: World Class Basics - The Thomas Cromwell Story
Hello again old friend! Shark Liver Oil returns with a readthrough of Hilary Mantell's Wolf Hall. In Part 1 we meet our rags to riches hustler Thomas Cromwell as as he starts his ascent to become one of King Henry VIII's most trusted advisors. We're introduced to some of the main characters of the story including Cardinal "get me some cherries" Wolsey and Stephen "glass half empty" Gardiner. And we explore just how Cromwell has managed to rise to where he is. Probably something to do with Tudor-era World Class Basics.. If on'y he'd done a podcast about it.
This part covers Part 1 of Wolf Hall. We'll do the other 5 parts over the next few months. Read along with us and let us know what you think about the book or podcast by emailing sharkliveroilpodcast@gmail.com -

Halloween Spooky Special - The Tell-Tale Heart
The crypt door creaks, the bat flaps against the uncaring moon, and strange, uncanny things happen, such as Shark Liver Oil releasing another podcast episode!
WE'RE BACK and as always it's our favourite tradition, the Halloween Spooky Special, that's made us revenant once more. This time it's Edgar Allen Poe's classic tale of a tale told by a heart, which is actually told by a person, who is so sane that you wouldn't catch him doing any murder except if you wait for him to just yell it out loud at you.JOIN US as we discover how slowly you can open a door whilst remaining creepy, how horror and comedy are part of one another, and what exactly you need to do to get arrested in the Edgar Allen Poe cinematic universe.As always we want to hear your thoughts - email us at sharkliveroilpodcast@gmail.com, or tweet us @sharkliveroil.
