Today I welcome Neil McRobert from the beloved horror podcast, Talking Scared. I wanted to discuss Gothic, what it is and why it matters that we understand the difference between Gothic and other genres. I’ve become concerned about the rise of anti-intellectualism combined with a consumer culture that seems to miss the point of reading, and I wanted to speak with someone with an academic background in Gothic that is also engaging, so Neil was the perfect fit. I hope you enjoy our chat, and please follow Talking Scared if you haven’t already. It’s a treasure of a podcast. For show notes, but visit my website at https://www.sheworeblackpodcast.com/
