  • #122 Pt 1 – Who Is H.P. Lovecraft?: His Bigotry, Writing Style & The Cthulu Mythos With Scott Weatherly

    This week Mike is joined by returning guest Scott Weatherly of the 20th Century Geek podcast and the Stories Out Of Time & Space podcast, to talk about one of the most influential fantasy/horror writers who you may have never heard of; H.P. Lovecraft!

    Part 1 of Mike & Scott’s chat starts with Lovecraft’s life including his bigotry, relationships & death, before talking about Lovecraft’s writing style, the realm of Lovecraftian horror that he created including ancient beings like Cthulu, what happened to his works after he died and more!

    Parts 1&2 are available now on Patreon in one unsplit episode, but on this standard feed, part 2 of their discussion will be released next week! In part 2, their chat on Lovecraft continues, starting with Alan Moore’s Lovecraftian comic, surviving in Lovecraft’s world, Scott then reads out a short passage from a Lovecraft story, why it’s hard to adapt Lovecraftian stories onto screen, how Scott first got into Lovecraft and many other aspects, so either tune in next week, or support GCC on Patreon!

     

    Some recommendations for starting Lovecraft are; Dagon, From Beyond, The Hound, Rats In The Walls, Horror At Red Hook, Herbert West: Reanimator & The Tomb – Scott recommended picking up the Wordsworth collection called Haunter Of The Dark as a starting point.

    S.T. Joshi’s Lovecraft biographies are ones to pick up if you want to know even more about Lovecraft!

  • #116 Pt 2 – Breaking Down Abstract Ideas: The Causation Of Consciousness & The Fountain Of Existence With Jack Thomas

     

    Jack of the Just Conversations podcast returns for part 2 of the deep dive into the concept of good & evil, consciousness, “the fountain of existence”, identity & more – continuing the very abstract discussion!

     

    So for this week’s part, the conversation on consciousness continues but please be advised on a trigger warning, as rape is mentioned as an example during the discussion. For clarity, the rest of their conversation tackles abtract ideas, the equalisation of the universe, how the universe may have started, the causation of consciousness, the “fountain of existence”, free will & determinism, one’s self and more!

     

    In case you missed it, part 1 of their chat started with the “passive apocalypse” and the polarising political system in America before delving into the main conversation topic; the concept of “good & evil”. Mike & Jack discuss whether “good” or “evil” even exist, as well as the historical retelling of events that alter perception, whether or not intent can affect the “goodness” of an action, religion’s impact of the perception of evil, heaven & hell and consciousness!
