The Cromcast S15 EP 9: The Strange Analysis of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

  

The Cromcast has reached the final story of the Gothic road and boy is it a doozy. Before we jump into it though, you should probably drink this potion. It might help... release your inner podcaster. Join the fellas as they dissect the themes of repression, guilt, and resentment at the center of Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde". Another epistolary tale, we hope you will read through it first. It is only a breezy 100 pages or so. Then, let us know what you think!

One Things

Luke: Is getting his lit crit on with Hugos there Podcast and Take me to YourReader

 

Jon - Dirty tricks and lawyer deeds on Better Call Saul

 

Josh - Is haunted by Egyptian gods with Moon Knight
