Gothic & Sci-Fi

An ambitious young scientist decides to play God and successfully creates life. But the creature he assembles is horrifying, and he abandons it in terror. In this episode, we dissect Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein"—the book that invented science fiction. We'll discuss the irresponsible creator, the creature who just wanted to be loved, and the timeless question: who is the *real* monster?

Before "Twilight" or "True Blood," there was "Dracula." In this episode, we explore Bram Stoker's iconic novel that defined the vampire myth. It's a thrilling story of ancient evil, forbidden desire, and the battle between superstition and modern science in Victorian England.

A Victorian scientist invents a device that sends him 800,000 years into the future, only to find humanity has split into two species: the beautiful, passive Eloi and the brutal, subterranean Morlocks. In this episode, we unpack H.G. Wells's foundational sci-fi story and its dark commentary on social class.
