One thing I've said it before when we've been interviewed, but I didn't want to I didn't really want to do this show

No, you didn't I thought it was a terrible idea. Yeah, I remember I was I was a big fan of podcast and I don't think you listened to any podcast really at the time did you no no and I listened to a ton of podcast and I go I know we can publish something that would be great and you're like I don't know I just didn't think anybody would care especially when you were saying we should focus on Lovecraft

I thought well yeah, there's an audience for that but

Shouldn't it be more about horror in general or I don't remember I had some bad ideas you were totally a genius

but I just felt like nobody would nobody would listen yeah and I disagree with you because I know that Lovecraft's tentacles are everywhere.

This is Chad Fyfer.

Oh yeah, and I'm Chris Lanky.

And you're here at the H.P. Lovecraft literary podcast.

At H.P. podcraft.com.

Today we're just going to be talking about some of the thoughts we've had about the last three years

doing the show and memories we have, answer some of your questions,

and then tee up what we're going to do next with the show.

So that's, I just want to get that out of the way, but not to pander, this audience is that's not

probably it has something to do with the fact that they're all readers.

It's not your typical internet audience.

That's true.

That's true.

But part of the reason that I was a little suspect about this is that I did in the late 90s I started writing it was kind of pre blog

Remember I had this email list called the wit doctor? Yeah, and actually I every time I think about it I think about you and I were working in that crappy office.

So I wanted to be writing, I couldn't publish anything, I was probably 24 or something like that.

I decided, well, I'm going to write a little something every day and just send it out to everybody in my email list just like one or two lines jokes
