    Great interview with Julie C. Day, and terrific readings from the Weird Dream Society. Will have to get this volume - thanks for airing the program.

  • When y’all coming back?

    I respect your personal life and space, and take your time if you need it. I just wanted to say this is my favorite podcast, and the last few weeks haven’t been sufficiently weird enough. Happy new weird!

    The Outer Dark is a brilliantly progressive and inspiring podcast. I love it. I don't know how I lived in the shadows without it.

  • Brilliant podcast on the Weird genre. Great presenting.

    What a brilliant podcast. Nicolay has great knowledge of the Weird genre and his discussions with his guests are always full of great content and are very informative. And he has a great presenting style, engaging each guest like a friend, conducting each interview as though it is just a conversation between two fans of the genre. I also love the blend of old episodes and new, where he catches up with former guests.

  • In-depth conversations on Weird Tales

    This is one of my favorite podcasts about weird fiction with intelligent connversation. One thing the quality of the audio and the host's voice fading in an out as if he's not speaking properly into the microphone. It may be the way he speaks too. Not certain which.
