Credo Quia Absurdum
The podcast that analyzes and interprets texts (and other pieces of media) from contemporary times and antiquity. Siblings Cat and Anna Jane love stories and love finding the absurdity in them (whether or not that absurdity was intended). Whether beautiful and poignant, creepy and atmospheric, utterly ridiculous, or some combination of the above, we delve deep into what some of our favorite works mean to us.
