Midnight Interview With Professor Frank Coffman: Pre Stoker Con Kolchak Panel and Kolchak The Occult Detective

Tonight Robert had the conversation of a lifetime as he got to get down and Nerdy with Retired English, Journalism, and Creative Writing Professor, Frank Coffman. Finally, Frank answered Robert’s burning questions about Fletcher Pratt and the Trap Door Spiders and their link to Kolchak. We also learned Frank has formally studied the type of mathematical literary criticism of creative writing that helped identify the Unabomber, and has written and edited many works of poetry, is one of the foremost authorities of Conan The Barbarian, while also rocking a wicked Kolsplay costume in the making. Last but not least, off the air, Robert learned Frank has something in common with one of Bradley’s favorite Astonishing Legends guests and Robert is cooking up a special crossover episode where Frank will join us again for a conversation with that guest and about that topic. Listen in and be ready for Frank’s post Stoker Con Kolchak 50 Years Panel and we’ll dive even deeper into Frank’s academic perspective of Kolchak.
