I don't know if he had this kind of general knowledge or if it's the result of him doing focused research when developing the story. But it does sound very impressive. I would like an actual expert in fossils and rocks to analyse his work to see how accurate it was or if there's a level of bluffing the layperson can't detect. I like to write and it's an amazing motivator to gain great knowledge in a very short space of time. But once the story is done I end up forgetting a lot of it, like studying for an essay.

If you're listening to side A, audio from side B could leak through as they are literally side by side the entire length of the tape. I don't know if it's a problem with the tape itself or the playing head being misaligned.

The initial writing/audio is reminiscent of those who lived during the timeframe within history previous to the scientific/industrial. The intrigue that is created internally when those who refuted such rigidity is abound. These such audio versions do entice one to purchase a mobile device.

This narrator is amazing - Conrad Feiniger, you should also check out his excellent Shadow Over Innsmouth, and Colour out of space. The other main narrator is equally great in a different manner - Gordon Gould. He mainly did the shorter ones, like From Beyond, The Outsider and The Unnameable. Sadly none of these videos seem to mention the narrator in the title or description, but I'm still so glad they exist. I listen to one of those two voices literally every day.

I was getting really annoyed because I thought that the Narrator was mispronouncing “Peabody”. But then, I looked at my Physical Copy of the Book and the Guy’s Name is actually “Pabodie”. So, it appears that my annoyance was unwarranted after All. Mea Culpa. 🤷‍♂️

Great stuff

What makes his voice so perfect is he sounds just like I would imagine Lovecraft sounded. Although for all I know, HPL had a high pitch and stuttered. Most people assumed President Lincoln had a deep voice but it was reputed by contemporaries to be a surprisingly high pitch.

This narrator is very good, but if you listen to Sean Branney narrate this story it is amazing! He does The Complete Fiction of HP Lovecraft on Audible.

Thanks!

Admiral Byrd had an operation in Antarctica like this except it was government funded and protected by war ships iirc They came back with their tails tucked between their legs Nowadays world leaders make pit stops in Antarctica for some reason… plenty of openings have been seen in satellite images… and plenty of rumors of what Byrd actually found besides “nothing to see here” So it’s probably based on true rumors at the time. We knew more and were allowed more back then. Now you can’t even fly over the pole for some reason even if you charter the flight yourself Interesting hu’

Uncanny is that which resembles us and yet is alien to us. The horror of Lovecraft isn't that these things or beings are extraordinary, but that we are so ordinary in comparison that we do not matter. That is the essence of Cosmicism.
