S1E110 - "William Wilson" by E.A. Poe (part one)

October 29, 2021 14:00 - 1 hour - 59.1 MB

This is part one (of two) of the final Halloween episodes for 2021. In this episode, I read a short story by Edgar Allan Poe entitled "William Wilson". I'd never read this story before, so what you get here is my very first crack at it. Much like the rest of this year, it didn't turn out quite as I'd expected it to, but it is what it is. At least I have a pleasant reading voice. Access weekly bonus episodes: https://www.patreon.com/ThatThingWithJames Social: @jamesjasher Reddit: r/ThatThi...

S1E107 - Biblically Accurate Angels Are Weird AF

October 01, 2021 14:00 - 49 minutes - 43 MB

Angels have been on the mind lately. Evidently, "the good book" describes them as quite bizarre, terrifying entities. Plus, they've been the subject of the two shows I've been consuming this past week: Neon Genesis Evangelion, and the depressingly disappointing Midnight Mass. Let's talk about it.

September 17, 2021 14:00 - 57 minutes - 48.5 MB

I am so, so, so happy with this episode. It's completely deranged, amoral, and funny as hell. Yes, it's more erotic fanfiction — this time starring Nic Cage, Shrek, and Sonic the Hedgehog.
