Our second episode and first of the year! Analyzing The Light Fantastic ended up taking longer than we expected, so we split this episode into two parts, the second of which we'll upload two weeks from now. IN PART ONE: Does Rincewind suck any less in this book? How practical ARE harmonically tuned squeaky floorboards? Do druids have tech support for their megaliths? And did Sir Terry manage to get An Actual Woman to read this manuscript?

THE ARTICLE JUNE MENTIONED ABOUT TERRY PRATCHETT'S OBLIVION MOD:
Our first episode! Aaaaa!!! We get a little jazzed and end up digging into our talking points before we summarize the plot, instead of after, so get ready for that. Does Terr-bear's first Discworld book deserve the bad rap that it gets? Does Rincewind suck, or is he secretly cool? Which jokes still hold up, and which were definitely, painfully written in the early 1980's? Why is Death acting so weird? And for the love of A'Tuin, why does the Luggage have meaty little human feet? (I STILL HATE THAT IT HAS HUMAN FEET.)
