This was an incredible introduction to Lovecraft, the man. Exploring primary sources can be a slog, but the presentation is very good and the content delivers exactly what it promises.

Great Intro to Lovecraft

Although I caught on to this podcast rather late, I hope to hear some further material (or material of the like) in the near future, even if sporadic. Thanks for all of the work you have done and continue to do in the name of the old gentleman!
