Spooky season is upon us, so we decided to sink our teeth into the
world of vampires. Host Brittany Luse kicks off the conversation
with Kendra R. Parker, who teaches a class at Georgia Southern
University about Black vampires in film and literature. They talk
about the racial and sexual politics of vampire narratives and why
humans continue to find vampire stories compelling.

Then Brittany sits down with Jacob Anderson, star of the AMC reboot
of Interview with the Vampire. The two get into the shaky ethics of
vampirism and the trauma of immortality.
