Ethan and special guests Risha and Erin of the Vampires and Mermaids podcast, and also Michael, discuss ‘Salem’s Lot, by Stephen King, while drinking Auchentoshan 12.

In this episode:

Special guests! Who have a show! That involves vampires and mermaids OR mermaids and vampires!

The introduction of what proves to be possibly the most chaotic rule in the history of the podcast

Followed by THE FASTEST LOSS(ES) IN PODCAST HISTORY

Like, so much of this episode is not about the book OR the scotch, sorry

THIS IS A FAMILY PODCAST

Some stuff about Stephen King’s psychology, which is at least LIKE discussing the book

MOMMY ISSUES

Sisterly traps

The/a comfort creep(s) (but get consent first)

Erin brings the “science nerd” heat, an unusual treat for this normally humanities-pilled podcast

You can intentionally titillate (a perfectly PG-rated word), or you can be punched in the face by a clown walking down the midway

Ethan’s punishment
