270 – Christopher Buehlman & One Seriously Epic Road Trip
Podcast: Talking ScaredRating: Explicit Published On: Tue Mar 03 2026
Description: This week we’re sharpening our swords and checking our armpits for boils! Christopher Buehlman is the guest, author the hugely-acclaimed 2012 medieval horror fantasy, Between Two Fires – now being reissued for a new, wide audience. It’s a book that everyone has been screaming at me to read, and I’m glad I did. Christopher and I get hellishly geeky, talking history, plague, angelology and demonology, Biblical reference and epic poetry. But he also tells us about his past career insulting drunk people at ren-fairs. Enjoy!
