Summary

We're so excited to share this live recording of one of our talks at the 2022 University of Pittsburgh Queer Horror Week!

Enormous thanks to the University of Pittsburgh Horror Studies Working Group for hosting us, and in particular to Dr. Bridget Keown, who lead this fantastic talk.

This talk was recorded live in a classroom- so the audio is a little rougher than our usual fare- but we hope you enjoy this fantastic chat!

You can also take in a version of this talk via video (with captioning) hosted by the University of Pittsburgh here.

outside a frozen wasteland. What remains of humanity lives inside in a largely subterranean city

governed by the remains of an insurance company. Now, our fair city is darkly funny. You'll meet mad scientists, lightning rigors,

the Woken Dead, giant ants, time travelers, and mole people. We are currently re-releasing

Our Fair City weekly. So this is a great time to join us for a romp through the tunnels of heartlife.
