Big and I Perform "Cask of Amontillado" On Journey Into...

Edgar Allan Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" is one of my favorite of his stories.  I'm never not affected by the "Yes, for the love of God" bit.*


So, it was quite a privilege when Marshal Latham asked me to perform the short story for the "Journey Into..." podcast.  And Big Anklevich got to give voice to Fortunato (I swear, he must've said "Amontillado!" a dozen times throughout), which is kind of nice.

Marshal put the performance out on his podcast, and you can check it out AT THIS LINK.  It's a classic story for a reason, and I hope people feel the three of us did it justice.


*In fact, I wish I could be that cold.  And calculating.  And murderous.  I'm working on it.  Every day.
