Obscure with Michael Ian Black

著者: Misfit Toys
  • 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

  • S4 Episode 76 - Ok look...
    2025/02/18

    The sound is bad this week, and it's your host's fault. A further warning: the sound will be next week as well, but after that - SMOOTH SAILING!!! So I apologize for the annoyance and assume it will further erode my subscriber base. The only question remaining: which will last longer - the subscribers or the book? Hard to say, but the goal of Obscure has always been to remain obscure. And so we shall!

  • S4 Episode 75 - The Trek Toulouse
    2025/02/11

    Your host reports today from the fabulous French city of Toulouse, where the second leg of his grand Tour de France continues. Over in the decidedly less glamorous city of Lycurgus, Roberta breaks the bad news to Clyde. How will he react? What will do? Will these star-crossed lovers patch things up and make good? Not bloody likely.

  • S4 Episode 74 - The "Blues"
    2025/02/04

    The nascent jazz age is upon Roberta Alden and the "blues," as we commonly know it today, was probably a word just coming into the vernacular. Even so, Roberta is suffering from this new malady as Clyde continues to let her down. Speaking of jazz... you know who loves this unique American art form? The FRENCH! This episode recorded in Bordeaux, France with a quiet cameo by your host's dear wife.
