Obscure with Michael Ian Black

De: Misfit Toys
  • Resumen

  • It's a book club, but funny!

    Comedian Michael Ian Black is tackling a great work of literature: Wuthering Heights.

    Join Michael's weekly book club as he reads aloud from a classic and asks people like Jen Kirkman, Mike Birbiglia, Michael Showalter, and even his teenage kids to weigh in with their perspectives.

    Season 1: Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure. The book is bleak, but Michael does a lot of accent work.

    Season 2: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. It's alive, and it's just a big buddy. Also, more accent work.

    Season 3: Wuthering Heights. It's a love story? Who knows

    Season 4: American Tragedy. Also a potential title of this podcast

    Apr 29 2025

    Some real moments of irritation from your host this week as he loses patience with both Bob AND Ted Dreiser. Now maybe it's on account of your host's sore back or maybe it's because your host thinks he knows better than one of the nation's great writers. Who can say.
