I've Never Read Discworld episodes:
September 23, 2024Book 19. Feet of Clay "Carrot is like Superman" - Andy
"Vetinari is like Lex Luthor" - PJAndy 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....more August 23, 2024Book 18. Maskerade ‘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.We're on Twitter at https://twitter.com/@discworldgnuCheck out Andy's YouTube channel at @AndrewLukePJ's production, John Meagher: The Divil's Own https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001yhg4Help support the channel at https://patreon.com/andyluke .

Interesting Times Two old infirm teachers who who have never read Interesting Times pack up their luggage and head for the Counterweight Continent. In a tale of cowardice and conquest Rincewind Redux comes under the spotlight and runs away from it quickly on a hunt for potatoes. The Silver Horde consider silverware. PJ shares his experiences living and working in Asia. Andy's hard line on avoiding spoilers pays off big time. And we talk all that boring political stuff that you, lets face it, tune in for, probably.
