In a change to the published schedule, we’re taking a break from exploring the wonders of the Newman-verse in order to talk about one of the best pieces of television in a long while that aired just this week. Joining Mr Jim Moon are Odile Thomas (of Sending a Wave and Highway to Mars) and Lee Medcalf (of the Black Dog Podcast) to discuss the most recent episode of Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror ’White Bear’.  In a very spoiler-heavy show – you have been warned – we get to grips with the many interesting questioned raised by this particular episode, chat about the show in general and wander into many strange techno-paranoid tangents!

In this first part, we look at his early novels and stories, uncover the truth behind the shadowy Peace and Love Corporation, delve into the works of his alter ego Mr Jack Yeovil, visit the Dark Future, roam the Old World of Warhammer, attend an orgy of blood parasites, and take a trip to the United Socialist States of America!

Due to forces beyond even his control, this week sees Mr Jim Moon hurriedly cobbling together an episode. The result is a shorter but somewhat different edition of Hypnobobs, in which we take a fantastical voyage through an ocean of sound and music to explore a selection of the poetry of Clark Ashton Smith.

This week Mr Jim Moon has unearthed from the Great Library of Dreams the works of a much overlooked but thoroughly fantastic author, Mr Clark Ashton Smith. Considered in his day as one of the top three authors in the legendary pulp magazine Weird Tales alongside Robert E Howard and HP Lovecraft, his canon hasn’t attracted quite the same standing as his two good friends. However in this episode  Mr Moon attempts to rectify this with an introduction to his works and readings of two of his tales. First we encounter the horrors of medieval witchery in rural France in the darkly erotic Mother of Toads, originally censored but presented here in its full uncut glory. And then we voyage back into the age of myth for drinks with Medusa in the comic fable Symposium of the Gorgon.

The cover image for this episode is a photograph of one of Clark Ashton Smith’s sculptures, a piece entitled Young Ghoul.
