If you’ve ever been confused about the difference between a Great Old One and an Outer God, or just want to know why everyone is so afraid of tentacles, this is the episode for you. We break down the cosmic hierarchy, from the sleeping dread of Cthulhu and the maddening presence of Hastur, all the way up to the ultimate nightmare entities residing outside of our reality: Nyarlathotep, Shub-Niggurath, Yog-Sothoth, and the Blind Idiot God at the center of the universe, Azathoth.
