Show Notes:


This week, Matt and Cameron cover the short story “The Sulphur Spring” by the author Nadezhda Durova, and investigate its depiction of indigenous peoples, its ambiguous relationships, and sulphur as a health benefit for ungrateful children. Yep, it's a wide-ranging one. Grab your spring water and tune in!


Major themes: Improvised speaking, sulpher water, ambiguous relationships


07:54 - The (Un)making of a Man: Aleksandr Aleksandrov/Nadezhda Durova by Ruth Averbach


32:08 - It’s 1 verst to .66 miles, so bit of an overestimation there.


The music used in this episode was “Старое Кино / Staroye Kino,” by Перемотка / Peremotka. You can find more of their work on Bandcamp and Youtube
