    #137 Morning Glory Milking Farm - CM Nascosta w/ Leigh Cuen

    Morning Glory Milking Farm (2022) is an extremely successful self-published work of 'monster-bait' romantasy. In short, it details the budding relationship between Violet, a human female, and Rourke, a minotaur male, who met at Morning Glory Milking Farm, where Violet is working as a minotaur milking technician. There's a point at which a euphemism becomes more descriptive than that which it seeks to soften. The verb 'to milk' has comfortably reached such a point. Given that I have no experience at all with romantasy or monster-bait, Leigh Cuen joined me to navigate the intricacies of c**t-lit.

    #136 Sacred Heart of the Purple Dawn - William Vanstone w/ Emshen

    Emshen joins me this episode to talk about Sacred Heart of the Purple Dawn, a bizarre choose-your-own-adventure novel (kind of) written by a man Emshen once got a Tarot reading from. Starring lesbian vampires, 90s action film comic relief black men, and (most horrifyingly) the Québécois, it was both a much more exhausting and much funnier experience than I was expecting.

    The Moon Is Gay w/ Phil Rot

    Phil Rot is back! After winning the Nobel Prize in Physics for his micronovel The Raft, Phil is gearing up for another Nobel with his newly-released The Moon Is Gay. Besides having maybe the best book title of all time, it is also a brave, timely, elegiac, lyrical, epochal, and moving account of camgirl diplomacy in a fast-paced, competitive, ultra-convenient, AI-enabled Amazon future. It also features gay moon werewolves. Phil and I got to talk about mole people, tunnels, Phil's writing process, why the poor can't produce great art, Phil's real name (Philip Roth), and a whole lot more.Buy The Moon Is Gay: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G6Y2L3WK/Phil Rot on Substack: https://philrot.substack.com/VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION Contact: jack.bcfh@gmail.com Jack has published a novel called Tower!

    #135 Vaught's Practical Character Reader - L.A. Vaught w/ Capitalisimo

    I tend to think of phrenology as a 19th-century phenomenon. In 1902, LA Vaught, late to the party, published 'Vaught's Practical Character Reader', a work seeking to (re)popularise phrenology. Mostly charming drawings and advertisements for phrenology ('it's plain to see!' is a commonly used phrase), it's a fun read, albeit one that is so chaotically set out that it's kinda hard to follow. Capitalisimo joined me for this episode, helping me to phrenologically and physiognomically analyse various world leaders and luminaries. NB: This episode is probably best watched as a video, as we examine Vaught's illustrations and carry out phrenological case studies using Google image search.

    The Earthen Dark w/ Brad Kelly

    Brad Kelly, of the Method and Madness podcast, returns to talk about his new book, The Earthen Dark. It's a work of weird fiction set in a sewer. Turns out, this is the perfect place to set such a tale. We talked about why subterranean places are so spooky, the near and far alien of weird fiction, the Glass Bead Game and LLMs, the effect of having children on one's writing, the provenance of imagination, Brad's writing process, and a whole lot more.

    Utter Goodness w/ Audrey Lee

    Utter Goodness is an upcoming short story collection written by Audrey Lee and published by Farthest Heaven. Its thirteen stories are lovely character studies, various faces of that peculiarly American form of cultural maximalism, and each rendered in very lithe prose. There's a kinda extemporising quality to the writing here, if one could extemporise in full paragraphs with foreshadowing and multiple layers of meaning, etc, etc, ect. It's good! We spent a lot of time talking about how Audrey comes up with these characters, and how her return to faith influenced the writing of Utter Goodness, both consciously and unconsciously. This will be the last episode this year. We'll start releasing things again early 2026.

    #134 - The Decline of the West (Vol. II - Chapters VII-IX) - Oswald Spengler w/ Gabe 'Skyrim Pseudomorphosis' Sinclair

    Chapters VIII, VIII and IX, titled 'Problems of the Arabian Culture', are some of the most fun in all of Spengler's work. In order to properly illuminate Spenglerian concepts like pseudomorphosis, the Pagan Church, the second religiousness, Islam as Magian Civilisation, and more, Gabe and I did what we do best: talk about gaming in Spenglerian terms. Turns out, Croteam's Serious Sam franchise is the perfect artefact of the coming Slavic soul, the endless flat plane, the erased z-axis of aiming, Siberian Mayhem...

    Crowbar w/ Andrew Edwards

    Andrew Edwards is the author of the novels King of Dogs (2019) and Crowbar (2025), both of which are well worth reading. King of Dogs is a tense action novel, while Crowbar feels like reading Programmed to Kill and watching thirty conspiracy thrillers at the same time during a speed comedown. It's a lot. For this episode, I softballed Andy with simple questions like 'What is the supernatural?' and 'What is your conception of the soul?' He's a real trooper and actually answered these, as well as a whole lot more.
