Words To That Effect: a narrative storytelling podcast that explores the intriguing places where fiction, history, science, and popular culture intersect and inspire.
From the Victorian past to utopian futures, dinosaurs to detectives, zombies to mummies, how does literature shape our understanding of popular culture?
WTTE was launched in 2017 and is hosted and produced by Conor Reid. The show has been featured in The Guardian and The Irish Times, been played on Radio New Zealand, and performed live in Ireland (Dublin Podcast Festival 2018 & 2019) and the UK (Pod UK 2020).
