A podcast about the books you've been meaning to read. Updates Mondays.
Overdue is a podcast about the books you've been meaning to read. Join Andrew and Craig each week as they tackle a new title from their backlog. Classic literature, obscure plays, goofy murder mysteries: they'll read it all, one overdue book at a time.
Your best friend passes away unexpectedly. Via witchcraft, you bring them back to life unexpectedly. Two of your ALSO-dead casual acquaintances/frenemies ADDITIONALLY come back to life unexpectedly. And the person that caused all these deaths is the least expected thing of all. If this sounds like YOUR life, you'll feel right at home in these girls' undead gang.

Carmilla is a double-whammy: an English-language vampire novel that predates Dracula by nearly three decades, and an edit from Carmen Maria Machado that both underlines the story's gay subtext and has a bit of fun with readers while doing it. Just try not to take her notes too literally and you'll be fine, probably.

Enjoy another episode of our spookiest show-within-a-show yet! In case you can't tell by the name, we're reading a selection of eight spooktacular books from R.L. Stine's Goosebumps series. Some Patreon supporters get these episodes monthly, but every two months we'll combine them for general consumption.
Ep 5 - NIGHT OF THE LIVING DUMMY
Twin girls Kris and Lindy fight over whose ventriloquist dummy is better...until they realize the real contest: which dummy is more haunted??
Ep 6 - THE HAUNTED MASK
Carly Beth's friends like to scare her. But this Halloween she'll scare their faces off! (And maybe hers too??)

This love-letter to sci-fi, libraries, and friends forged through literature is also a fairy tale of sorts about a young girl saving her world. Is the magic real? Probably!
Wilde's fairy tales probably aren't the best-known of his works, but that doesn't mean they don't get a little Wilde-y. Just don't expect many happily-ever-afters.

Actually...it's just us. As usual. But we are talking about a surprisingly faithful novelization of Con Air, one that really reinforces how much the motley crew of character actors elevated the 1997 film.
Con Air is our Patron's Choice episode for September. Find out how to vote on future Patron's Choice selections at patreon.com/overduepod
It's us, back again with the first book in a (planned, as of this writing) multi-book fantasy series! The Lost Dreamer has a lot of neat ideas and a unique setting, but its abrupt ending and dearth of distinct supporting characters make it less strong than it could be.
