Lit with Vik Podcast
In this podcast, Vik, a young history and English double major will chaotically discuss all things bookish, from the literature we read, to films, television and other media. She will be joined by guests from a variety of backgrounds who all share a love of literature, just like her. Tune in biweekly on Mondays for each episode!
Episode 10: Draculalaland- A Tale of Technology, Polenta and Candle Wax
Hello folks and welcome back to Lit with Vik featuring the illusive Clarissa, as we delve into the depths of Dracula for our project in our Victorian literature course. Be warned that we will spoil every part of Dracula, call out the English for the lack of spice in their food and more. We hope you will enjoy it.

Episode 9: Charles Dickens and the Ominous Bald Head
I LIIIIIIIIIIVE! It has been a while, but I am back and ready to attack the topic of Charles Dickens/ Chuckie D with my pal, the illusive cryptid/ hobbit/ borrower Clarissa. This is the first in a collection of episodes now that I have returned to the podcast scene. It is lovely to be back and in the community once more. A few disclaimers, Clarissa and I sound similar, so if you have any issues telling who is who, Clarissa has kindly written up a transcript of our chat. I am also aware that Matty's intro includes a mention of the queen, which I kept because I think the idea of Matty and I having tea with a corpse is funny.

Hello everyone! Welcome back to another episode of Lit with Vik.

Episode 3: Viktoria With a K Actually Reads.... The Raven
Hello everyone! This is the first in a new series on this podcast called "Viktoria with a K Actually Reads...." where I, the aforementioned Viktoria, read a bit of a public domain work, with some theatrics of course. Today's episode is the Raven by Edgar Allan Poe, which is a longtime favourite of mine for its spookiness. Beware, for I will pretend to be a bird, talk about Mike Flanagan, and transform into Rachel Ray.

Episode 2: "You've Got Mail!" Looking at Letters in Literature
In this episode, I chat with my close friend Caroline, who has known me since I was but a wee little Viktorian urchin, (see what I did there) about epistolary novels. What are those?
