Call of Cthulhu - The Pacific Sailing School for Young Men Part 1

/

This episode and the second part deal with some very heavy themes, including child abuse (both physical and mental), child endangerment, bullying, homophobia, animal cruelty, and sexual themes, and that's before the mythos shows up. Listener Discretion is advised.

It is 1961. In a time of great upheaval in the US and the world, a pair of teens in California are being forced to attend a summer school. This unique school has boys do college prep while they learn about boating, sailing a yacht from California to Baja California, then to Hawaii, then back. Our two protagonists are an obscenely wealthy JD and a quiet theater kid with something to hide. As they develop a tenuous friendship, they start to realize the two professors running this school have a cruel streak, and it's going to take their friendship and their skills to survive...

If you want to read along when it pops up, luckily The Kraken by Alfred, Lord Tennyson is in the public domain and is freely available online.
