It's Halloween again, and you know what that means: we're covering a horror story. Specifically, a cosmic horror story. And what better author to feature than Providence, Rhode Island's own H.P. Lovecraft and his seminal short story, "The Call of Cthulhu"? Search through our proverbial great-uncle's research notes with us as we uncover the hallmarks of Lovecraftian horror, debate the pronunciation of the titular character, and throw shade on the narrator for his literary snobbery. Hear us attempt to describe the indescribable in everyone's favourite tentacle-faced monstrosity, Big C. After listening, prepare for vivid nightmares where the geometry is "loathsomely redolent of spheres and dimensions apart from ours".
And remember, with strange aeons even podcasts may die.
