Introducing the Uncanny Robot Podcast
Soothing Stories Podcast
As a bonus for Soothing Stories listeners, we would like to share a preview of our brand-new show, "Uncanny Robot Podcast." Yes, more Uncanny goodness! Wonderfully wild AI-created stories read by humans (that would be Thersa and Richard) with a little commentary thrown in, too. Thank you so much for subscribing and listening to Soothing Stories. We really hope you like the new podcast as well.

The Iron Shroud by William Mudford
Soothing Stories Podcast
Did you know "The Iron Shroud" by William Mudford was the impetus for Edgar Allan Poe's "The Pit and the Pendulum"? Well, it was. I decided to read it (and next, Poe's iconic tale), so we can compare the two for similarities and differences. I wonder which one you like best?

CH 9-12 Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll
Soothing Stories Podcast
I've heard dozens of narrations of Lewis Carroll's Alice and Wonderland, but none of the sequel, Through the Looking Glass. So I decided to read the tale one chapter at a time. In this story, Alice steps through a mirror into a Looking Glass World. Here many things are reversed, we hear The Jabberwocky for the first time, and we get to meet Humpty Dumpty.

info_outlinePublished in 1892 it's both a horror story and a feminist piece. Gilman herself suffered years of depression, her prescription at the time was to rest and live as domestic a life as possible. Remember this was in the late 1800s and she was a woman. She wasn't allowed to do what she loved most, write. The doctor went as far as to forbid her to even touch a pen, pencil or brush. Also, she could only have two hours of mental stimulation a day.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman endured three months of this "cure" and after almost having a complete mental breakdown she decided to go against doctor's orders and began writing again. She wrote this story. Later she said her intent for the piece was to save people from being driven crazy. It's an amazing story and she's a fascinating person. So please look her up and read more if you're interested.
