An episode in which Kaisha and Kelsey discuss crazy short stories, obvious conceits, and divine redemption. Come along as we chat about the author who inspired a genre of horror stories without supernatural elements. Kaisha talks about the author who first coined the word android in the 1800s. Take away for writers: an excellent author does not always write excellent stories.

This episode is hilarious. You both made me laugh so many times.
I should clarify. I was laughing in the opening segment about the French short story. The episode got darker immediately after that but was fascinating.
