78: The Temple (Discussion)

A discussion of H.P. Lovecraft's "The Temple," first published in the September, 1925 issue of Weird Tales (though written in 1920), and first discussed with my attorney, wife, and congressional candidate, Claire Reynolds. Please note, this is a horror podcast, so its content may not be for everyone. This story contains several references to both homicide and suicide, war crimes, a claustrophobic entrapment aboard a disabled submarine, the undead, off-putting dolphins, Atlantean architecture, and excessive ethnocentrism and national chauvinism throughout. If these elements are likely to disturb you unduly, you are advised to skip this episode. You can read this story yourself at HPLovecraft.com.
