Obscure with Michael Ian Black

著者: Misfit Toys
  • サマリー

  • It's a book club, but funny!

    Comedian Michael Ian Black is tackling a great work of literature: Wuthering Heights.

    Join Michael's weekly book club as he reads aloud from a classic and asks people like Jen Kirkman, Mike Birbiglia, Michael Showalter, and even his teenage kids to weigh in with their perspectives.

    Season 1: Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure. The book is bleak, but Michael does a lot of accent work.

    Season 2: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. It's alive, and it's just a big buddy. Also, more accent work.

    Season 3: Wuthering Heights. It's a love story? Who knows

    Season 4: American Tragedy. Also a potential title of this podcast

  • S4 Episode 83 - On Celebrating and Not Celebrating
    2025/04/08

    The episode begins with a reflection on St. Patrick's Day in Savannah, which - your host is told - is the nation's 3rd largest St. Patty's Day celebration. So while revelers drink themselves into a stupor down south, up north in Lycurgus, NY, our friends Clyde and Roberta struggle with the continually growing problem of Bob's pregnancy. But now, with the addition of the threat of marriage, blackmail, and, perhaps, extortion. Things are churning in a bad direction on an exciting new episode of Obscure.

  • S4 Episode 82 - Horny Young People
    2025/04/01

    When you think about it, isn't all art about horny young people? Sure it is. And where does it all lead? No place good. Which is how you end up with a couple poor saps out there in Lycurgus, NY trying to extract themselves from a situation in which they placed themselves by virtue of their own damned horniness. And that's where we pick up this week's episode.
