Was It Good?: A Literary Podcast

Welcome to Was It Good?, the most unserious serious literary podcast on the internet. Silly geese PhD students Sid Robichaud (she/her) and Rowan Li (they/them) combine their scholarly expertise with their goofy natures to give you the rundown on adaptations of literature to film, TV, music, and other new media. What is the best Pride & Prejudice? Was Netflix’s Persuasion really that bad? Will they ever stop adapting Austen? Each month, Sid and Rowan will get in the pond to tackle these questions and more, taking you from page to screen (and beyond!) in order to decide: Was It Good?

  1. 3

    03: Heathcliff, It's Me, Therapy

    Out on the wily, windy moors, Sid and Rowan haunt Emerald Fennell’s “Wuthering Heights” with the ghost of Emily Brontë’s (largely unrelated) Wuthering Heights. Caution: high possibility of dying in this house.

  2. 2

    02: And They Were Rivals!

    The temperature turns up in the pond as Sid and Rowan take a look at the Heated Rivalry phenomenon. Strap on your skates: Was It Good? is headed to the Cottage.

    01: Into the Flanaverse

    Sid and Rowan kick off the podcast with a deep dive into the dark and twisted mind of Mike Flanagan. This month in the pond: his critically acclaimed adaptation of Shirley Jackson’s American gothic classic The Haunting of Hill House.
