Podsothoth is a horror and comedy podcast dedicated to the works (and foibles) of H.P. Lovecraft, hosted by recovering goth and internet D-lister celebrity, Tod Beardsley. Every Lovecraft story will be covered over two episodes each. First, Tod will read the story with minimal production, and ideal for people who just want to hear Lovecraft's words. This is the horror part. Following each story is a discussion of, about, and around that story, and have plenty of jokes and giggles. This is the comedy part. Follow the show at https://defcon.social/@podsothoth, or email the show at hideous@podsothoth.club. Other media may crawl out from the chaos iN ThE ineffAbLE fUTUrE, beyOnD tHe KEn OF MAN OR BEAST ALIKE AND IN A TIME OF THE GREAT RETURN OF THE OLD ONES, WHO WILL F'THAGN R'YL'EHHHHH IA IA!!!!!

  • 76: The Silver Key (Discussion)
    2026/04/29

    Join Tod and Congressional Candidate Claire as they discuss H.P. Lovecraft's "The Silver Key," first published in the January, 1929 issue of Weird Tales.

    Please note: while this story is largely fanciful, this is ultimately a horror podcast, and so it may not be suitable for all audiences. In particular, this discussiojn involves the horrors of growing old, the siren's song of nostalgia bordering on retromania, grotesque packaging, and the utter meaningless of life in a blind and uncaring cosmos. If this subject matter is likely to disturb or offend you, you may wish to skip this episode.

    You can catch Claire on CombatVetPaul's channel, live streamed (or recorded if it's after April 29, which is almost certainly is when you read this): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8z_si0s8YO8

    You can follow along with Tod's adventures with "The Lovecraft Conference" here:

    Hey, it's registration and travel planning time for NecronomiCON Providence! Go here: https://necronomicon-providence.com/welcome/. Wanna meet up? Write or at-us at hideous@podsothoth.club or https://defcon.social/@podsothoth!

    Finally, you should also listen to War in Pieces: https://warinpiec.es. It's a day-by-day, sentence-by-sentence reading of War in Peace, usually read by Tod, occasionally read by Claire and other guests. If you want to read a sentence, just record yourself on a voice memo and email it to patience@warinpiec.es. It'd be helpful to limit yourself to something nearby where the podcast is, and of course, please use the same text Tod uses: https://github.com/todb/warinpieces/blob/main/warpeace01tols_0.pdf (as of this show note in April of 2026, we've just started on page 4).

    Update: it has come to our attention that we failed to make, or even consider, a single Silver Surfer joke. I guess we'll have to wait for Through the Gates of the Silver Key to correct this oversight.

    You can text us now. Why? That’s between you and your Elder God.

  • 75: The Silver Key
    2026/03/11

    A reading of the "The Silver Key," by H.P. Lovecraft, first published in the January, 1929 issue of Weird Tales, and first read aloud here, by me, in March of 2026.

    Please note: while this story is largely fanciful, this is ultimately a horror podcast, and so it may not be suitable for all audiences. In particular, this story involves the horrors of growing old, the siren's song of nostalgia bordering on retromania, suicidal thoughts, grotesque packaging, and the utter meaningless of life in a blind and uncaring cosmos. If this subject matter is likely to disturb or offend you, you may wish to skip this episode.

    You can read this story yourself at HPLovecraft.com, or enjoy the ambient "Sound of Jupiter | 12 Hours of Space Ambient Sounds" by Voice of the Deep Space, at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8myhlA8PZA

  • 74: The Last Test (Discussion)
    2026/02/08

    Join Tod and Congressional Candidate Claire as they discuss "The Last Test," by H.P. Lovecraft and Adolphe de Castro. It was first published in the November 1928 issue of Weird Tales, under de Castro's name.

    Please note: this is a horror podcast, and may not be for everyone. In particular, this story touches on sensitive subjects such as suicide, the unethical treatment of animals, the unethical treatment of humans, the lost city of Atlantis, hypodermic needles, California politics, prison administration, unkind characterizations of Tibetans and Mexican-Americans, Nyarlathotep (also known as the Crawling Chaos), wildly unethical journalism, and the vilification of medical science. If this subject matter is likely to disturb or offend you, you may wish to skip this episode.

    Specifically, in this episode, there's a very short story that's worth an extra warning. If you don't want to hear that, skip from 57m23s to 59m37.

    You can read this story yourself at HPLovecraft.com.
