Recs if you like Foucault’s Pendulum...
Audiobooks Narrated by the Great Tim Curry
2026 is merciless. We lost another one, people. Pour one out for a legend. I'm devastated. Clue is one of my all-time favorite movies. I saw Rocky Horror Picture Show on the Queen Mary when I was in high school. They wrote slut on my chest and had me perform sapphic erotica for the audience. I had misread the vibe and was wearing a sailor suit my friend had cut the legs and crotch out of. It was an incredible (eye-opening) evening for me. We will miss you so much, Tim.
