   MR James - Eldritch Kazoo from the Nameless Beyond

   It's Halloween so it's time for A SPOOOOOOOKY STORY!This time we've got a new author to us, a giant of the ghost story genre, a man so good at writing creepy stuff he can make it funny as well - MR James (Monty to his mates). Join us as we encounter some VERY silly decisionmaking, some questionable archaeological practice and a classic terrifying ending. Can we have a cuddle? As always email us at sharkliveroilpodcast@gmail.com with anything you'd like to say about the story.

   Wolf Hall Pt2: An Occult History Of Britain

   Whew! It's been a long time coming and it's a hell of a long episode. We navigate our way through what turns out to be a huge chunk of the book in Part 2. It's mostly a history lesson, filling us in on Thomas and Wolsey: The Early Years. There are highs, lows, a few laughs and some absolutely and devastating and beautiful writing. It's no Goosebumps, put it that way. Thoughts? sharkliveroilpodcast@gmail.com is the place to send them.
