Milord Sir Smiht and the Odyllic Snuff-Up: Virgil & Bob Investigate
Send us a textVirgil & Bob revisit the hilarious “Milord Sir Smiht, the English Wizard,” as collected in The Enquiries of Doctor Eszterhazy (1975). In this episode of The Avram Davidson Universe Podcast, they return to Bella’s Court of the Golden Hart, where an English “wizard,” a roomful of snuff, and some very dubious odyllic forces somehow add up to one of Davidson’s strangest comic investigations.We previously featured this story with the great Tim Anderson — you can watch or listen to that reading here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1310005/episodes/15173599 https://youtu.b...

Avram Maps the Sea of Dreams: Sinbad Between Myth and Memory
Send us a text Avram Davidson (himself) warms up for a lecture and pulls you aboard a lateen-rigged dhow to ask the irresistible question: where, exactly, did Sinbad sail—Borneo, Sumatra, Serendib, even Madagascar—or only through our imaginations? Show notes: • Paul Bunyan vs. Sinbad: why tall tales can still point to real shores • Baghdad’s golden age, Harun al-Rashid, and merchants’ cargo lists like poetry • Dhows, monsoons, “islands” that breathe (whale? turtle?), and apes near Sumatra• The rukh/roc, Aepyornis eggs, and dagobas that look like giant eggs from afar

Occult Detective Month: Dr. Eszterhazy and “The Case of the Mother-in-Law of Pearl”
Send us a text Bob & Virgil go deep on Avram Davidson’s Eszterhazy tale: lurlies vs. Lorelei, undines and baptismal souls, why “Mud” matters, how Davidson blends courtly satire with folklore, and where Eszterhazy fits in the occult-detective lineage (think Hodgson/Machen—but funnier, kinder, and sneakier). We hit publication context (Fantastic, 1975), the expanded Eszterhazy collection, and the story’s quiet ecological thread (buckwheat, wudkey, and the costs of progress). Spoiler-light for newcomers, juicy for devotees. #OccultDetective #AvramDavidson #DoctorEszterhazy #weirdfiction #fantasyhistory #literarydiscussion #SFFPodcast #classicsfeature #mythandmystery #StoryDeepDive #booktube @ScienceFictionStation @literallybooks

David Pickering’s rich narration highlights Davidson’s humor, history-deep worldbuilding, and the story’s gentle twist on the “occult detective” tradition—no gore, just genius.

Дороти была всего лишь одной из многих девушек, надеявшихся добиться успеха в Голливуде, однако внешние данные не позволяли ей надеяться на удачу. Случайная встреча с таинственным доктором, приехавшим из Юго-Восточной Азии, внушила ей надежду... однако предложенное им средство превратило девушку в человекообразную обезьяну.
