  • Book 19. Feet of Clay
    Sep 23 2024

    "Carrot is like Superman" - Andy "Vetinari is like Lex Luthor" - PJ Andy charts his loss of Disc virginity with a five-function diary and PJ reports in on his first time with the Feet of Clay audiobook. The most important man in the city has been poisoned and there's everything to play for. We rave and rant on golems, technology, the working class struggle, trans experiences, gender metaphors, relationships, class, and the psychogeography of Ankh-Morpork. We've got good at this. Deep dives into Cheri, Vimes, Angua and Carrot. Take a drink every time PJ says Jon Culshaw.

  • Book 18. Maskerade
    Aug 23 2024

    ‘That’s basically all of opera, reely.’ ‘What? Either dyin’ or drinkin’ beer?’ ‘We-ll…there might be some other stuff. But mostly it’s stout or stabbin.’ The witches return to Ankh-Morpork and a series of killings at the opera house. City Guide PJ Hart leads the way through PTerry's world of ghosts, Greebo and cootie dumplings. First-timer Andy Luke brings his knowledge of operatic motifs and shares a surprising anecdote about the consequences of reading Maskerade, and singing about it.

Thank you!

I am not a university challenge level discworld bore. I have never been to a pratchett fan site or participated in said past times.
Discworld is however a close companion that along with hitchhikers had a dramatic and lasting effect on my brain.
This podcast is almost exactly the conversation I have had repeatedly over the years with any poor unsuspecting person that gets separated from the group in a pub. This exact conversation is why I have never had the complete set of books.
I have listened to many podcasts I like, love or identify with, but never one I have wanted to join in with so much. Thanks chaps.
