Obscure with Michael Ian Black

  • サマリー

  • It's a book club, but funny!

    Comedian Michael Ian Black is tackling a great work of literature: Wuthering Heights.

    Join Michael's weekly book club as he reads aloud from a classic and asks people like Jen Kirkman, Mike Birbiglia, Michael Showalter, and even his teenage kids to weigh in with their perspectives.

    Season 1: Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure. The book is bleak, but Michael does a lot of accent work.

    Season 2: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. It's alive, and it's just a big buddy. Also, more accent work.

    Season 3: Wuthering Heights. It's a love story? Who knows

    Season 4: American Tragedy. Also a potential title of this podcast

    Well, Michael and his wife are in a tiff for reasons that are ENTIRELY HIS FAULT. Even so, that doesn't mean he is in the wrong! (He is in the wrong.) Plus, all kinds of angst regarding the weather, dinner, and the misery of his life. Meanwhile, a love triangle is developing there in Lycurgus, NY like a goddamned hurricane - one of which is brewing at the time of this recording.

    2024/10/15

    Roberta and Clyde have given themselves over to their most lascivious desires. While Dreiser does not spell out the exact nature of these desires, it's safe to assume they are of the most disgusting, immoral, and degrading activities imaginable. Meanwhile, your humble host indulges in his own disgusting, immoral, and degrading activities up in the wilds of Connecticut. A debased chapter of "An American Tragedy" on today's Obscure.

    It seems like sin is in the wind as Clyde and Roberta have commenced their intimacies. Both parties find themselves conflicted over this new turn of events. The kids are doing the nasty at night and brooding over it during the day. Is it paradise... or HELL?!?
