Episode 75: Sun Tzu
TW: Torture;
You ever have your boss ask you to make a manual of your process at work but really you know they're just trying to understand what the fuck it is you do? While we may not know the story behind the author to a great extent, we fully understand the purpose of his work. Unfortunately a little too well. Join us as we delve into "The Art of War", and its author, Sun Tzu! -
Episode 74: Nadia Anjuman
TW: Abuse;
While I wouldn't call this our happiest episode, the story of Nadia Anjuman needs to be told. Her work is criminally underrepresented in the West, and we can only hope that as her message is spread, so too are her poems. -
Episode 73: Percy Bysshe Shelley Pt. 2
TW: Dead kids, Suicide;
When a guy like Percy comes along, history seems to revolve around them. Not in like-- a way in which important events seem to crop up around them, but in the fact that we know every little detail about this douchebag's life. If you like kidnapped children, terrible fathers, and boating accidents, boy do we have the guy for you! Join us as we trudge through the remaining years in the short life of our King of Kings: Percy Bysshe Shelley! -
Episode 72: Percy Bysshe Shelley Pt. 1
It's been two years since we last talked about our Terrible Trio: Mary, Percy, and the good ol' Lord Byron. But today we continue the saga with "Mad Shelley", a poet who showed a penchant for explosives, electricity, and freaking out when it was most convenient. Join us as we delve into his earliest works, and the incredible knack he had for pissing off every single person he ever met!

Episode 71: Cormac McCarthy Pt. 2
