This week, producer Emily Dzioba comes in for an episode with our host Talia Smith, talking all about Mary Shelley, the summer of 1816, and her most infamous creation still haunting us 200 years later: Frankenstein. Light a candle (or whatever mood lighting you prefer), curl up in your favorite cozy blanket, and dive with us into this discussion of gothic literature + the original goth queen herself.
