In this episode, we sit down with S.T. Joshi. S.T. is an American literary critic whose work has largely focused on weird and fantastic fiction, especially the life and work of H. P. Lovecraft.

We listen to “Death of a Damned Good Man,” originally published in Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine (January 1991), and an excerpt of Avram Davidson on H.P. Lovecraft from his book review column in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction (January 1963).

To be honest, the story had a much greater impact when read alongside the narration. I also suspect that, although it was published in 1991, it may have been written earlier.

In this episode we sit down with Scott Bradfield.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Bradfield

We listen to “The Hills Behind Hollywood High” and discuss the story. Originally published in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, April 1983. It was written by Grania Davis and Avram Davidson.

Scott has a new "audio book" being read on Substack. It was written in 1994 and concerned a world where all the political parties agreed on treating animals as badly as human beings and vice versa. And a stupid celebrity thug who takes over the world (about the same time he's bought out by corporate villains.)
