After a heartfelt tribute to the late Barbara Bush and an impassioned plea to not repeat her mistake of eating dozens of xannies while listening to Dream Pop, we talk about two books that have tackled HP Lovecraft's legacy of being a weird racist: Matt Ruff's Lovecraft Country and Paul La Farge's The Night Ocean. Along the way we talk about race, literary form, the politics of extreme music and how Morrisey is a whack-ass jabroni.
