Welcome to the first episode of PODCRAFT COUNTRY, a podcast dedicated to the HBO series Lovecraft Country, from executive producers Jordan Peele & J. J. Abrams.

In the first episode, your host--pop culture podcaster and writer Tony Black--and guest Wayne Talbot, artist and comic book writer, discuss the first teaser trailer for the series, breaking down characters and scenes, talking parts of Matt Ruff's source material, and looking ahead to what may be in store in the show.

Why is Atticus Turner now named Atticus Black? What are the Jim Crow laws? Who is Christina Braithwaite? And why is H. P. Lovecraft so popular right now?
