  • Edgar Allan Poe's Death Anniversary
    Oct 7 2021
    Yes I am bringing this podcast back from the dead especially for the Halloween season to discuss in more detail his mysterious death to honor him on the actual date he sadly passed away in more detail. I did an episode about this before but it was very brief and it was missing quite a few details so I'm doing a better episode to discuss his very mysterious death.

  • Edgar Allan Pwned
    Jun 26 2020
    In this episode I talk about an argument between Poe and a certain editor named Griswold. I'm calling it The Gentleman's Feud. I explain the rift between the two literary scholars and why Griswold wrote such a nasty obituary which actually did the opposite effect that made Poe infamous. I'm reading an original flash fiction short story called "For Elise" and the two poems I'm reading by Poe are "Lenore" and "The Sleeper". Happy listening!!
