Just as you can't read a Gene Wolfe story, only re-read it, so we hope it goes with podcasts.

Our next entry for Ani-May-tion Month is 2021's The Spine of Night. Psychedelic, gritty, weird - and once again for Podside, a special flower becomes very important to the plot.

Ani-May-tion Month continues as we delve into 2003's Animatrix, and the vast potential of The Matrix as a frame for many stories.

To celebrate Gene Wolfe's birthday, we've decided to unlock our second episode of our read-along of The Shadow of the Torturer a day early!
