Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! What is the collective noun for Wendigo? Pack? Herd? A Disturbance, perhaps? Welcome to part three of Algernon Blackwood's "The Wendigo". If you like the last couple weeks, this is tonally similar, although I'll tell you what, the tension is coming to a head! Or, at least a torso...

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! Is Wendigo the plural of Wendigo? Aaaah! It's part two of Algernon Blackwood's "The Wendigo". Still moody and atmospheric, but less with the accents this week. Though it's still that French Canadian so bad it isn't even offensive anymore.

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! This week begins a four part mini-series, so trap in, y'all. That's right, for the next month, you're getting Algernon Blackwood's "The Wendigo". It's moody, it's atmospheric, and it's full of accents! Well, really one nearly indecipherable accent that I think was an attempt at French Canadian but somehow sounds like Count Dracula doing an offensive cajun dialect.

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! Why do parents do weird things with their kids' names? This week, Ken is reading a story by long time podcast favorite and vampire we hope knows we support and would be happy to help ease back into society should he choose to return, Ambrose Bierce Heather makes a lot of G--- G---s, and if you want to know this weeks Euphemistic Alliteration you'll have to listen. Along the way your hosts discover a new term for self pleasure, workshop a new Musical Comedy, and apologize to any listeners who may have suffered PTSD at last week's mention of the 1993 film Boxing Helena. "My Favourite Murder" was published 1888. Email us at [email protected]. Remember to tell five friends to check out Campfire Classics. Like, subscribe, leave a review.

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! After three weeks away, Heather is back! Which means all of those euphemistic jokes (alliterative or otherwise) that you've been missing are back.  With a vengeance. Like, a big one... Ken picked the story for Heather to read. It's by previous a new author in the Campfire Classics catalogue name Flora Annie Steel. She's the daughter of a wealthy English family during the height of the British Empire, so  naturally we're all holding our breath just hoping she doesn't write anything socially problematic. Your hosts skate through pretty easily on their vocabulary, but discuss the under-the-bed dirty mag stash, reference the 1993 film Boxing Helena, and try to make up for all the missed innuendos of the last three weeks. "Dick Whittington and His Cat" was published 1918. Email us at [email protected]. Remember to tell five friends to check out Campfire Classics. Like, subscribe, leave a review.

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! Have you ever been halfway through an entertaining piece of media, whether a movie, or a story, or say...a podcast episode... and suddenly  found yourself thinking, "Gee, is this a little culturally insensitive?" Well, that's how I felt listening to Ken's accent work during this week's story. To be clear, there is nothing racist about the story. It's just, sometimes an accent is so bad it's offensive... Anyway, this week, Ken gets to read "The Monster Maker" by Ray Bradbury. It's a wild adventure story reminiscent of some TTRPGs a certain member of this show's production staff has played recently. "The Monster Maker" was published 1944 in Planet Stories. Extensive research has found no evidence of an active copyright. Email us at [email protected].
