The British Clone (Road Trip (Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe Massacre, Eilean Donan Castle))

Author: Chris and Hannah September 10, 2021 Duration: 1:16:37
Welcome back to another episode as Chris embarks on his third decade. Boke.  Things are a'changin'. Hannah returns to work and Chris is in crisis about his age. To distract ourselves we kick of proceedings with the usual hat question. This time we as ourselves which films we're embarrassed to admit we haven't seen, which segues beautifully into a preaching sesh from Chris about his main philosophy in life.  Hop aboard as we take you on a road trip mapped out by the very road trip Chris and Mrs Matthew Jones took for their birthday. 

Glasgow’s atmospheric streets provide the perfect backdrop for A Wee Bit Gothic, where hosts Chris and Hannah explore the darker corners of culture and history. This isn't a scripted lecture; it's a conversation between two friends who’ve been drawn to the macabre and the melancholic since they were young. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair in a dimly lit pub, listening as they weave together topics that might seem disparate but are united by a gothic sensibility. You’ll hear them delve into infamous true crime cases, dissect the brooding themes of classic and contemporary literature, and share stories of haunted places and the architects who accidentally built them. The discussion might pivot to a film that captures a particular shade of gloom, all filtered through their personal perspectives as creatives living in a city that embodies its own gritty romance. The charm of this podcast lies in its authentic, meandering curiosity-Chris and Hannah aren’t presenting definitive guides, but rather sharing their own thoughts and reactions, making the eerie and the unsettling feel strangely welcoming. It’s for anyone who finds beauty in the shadowy, the historical, and the tragically human, all delivered with a distinctive Glaswegian warmth that contrasts beautifully with the dark subject matter.
