- Season 3 Episode 3: The Intention Craft with WesleyWesley from the Bookwarm Games podcast joins Evan to discuss Season 3 Episode 3: The Intention Craft. With Iorek’s help, Lyra and Will attempt to mend the subtle knife — as well as their differing opinions on Lyra’s plan to go to the Land of the Dead. Meanwhile, Asriel takes Mrs. Coulter captive and the two spar over Lyra and his war, leading to Coulter stealing the titular Intention Craft.Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b957 min
- Season 3 Episode 2: The Break with WinstonNew guest Winston joins Evan to discuss Season 3 Episode 2: The Break. Mrs. Coulter is holed up with Lyra while Will, The Magisterium, and Asriel converge on her location. Featuring a stellar Ruth Wilson performance, some great moments for Will, and more details on Lord Asriel’s war with the Authority. Once again the guest’s audio was pretty rough, but I did my best to clean it up. Sorry if he’s a little hard to hear at times!Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b952 min
- Season 3 Episode 1: The Enchanted Sleeper with MiaShadow Particles returns for Season 3 of His Dark Materials! This season Evan will be covering one episode per week, ignoring the TV series’ screwy release schedule: two episodes per week on HBO, with the entire show dropping on BBC on December 18. Our first guest is Mia, a.k.a. @buttpraxis, a returning guest who forgot about Season 2 entirely (don’t worry, she read the books). Production note: Mia had to record from her AirPods so the audio quality is not great, my apologies!Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b951 min
- Season 2 Episode 7: Æsahættr with ReneeEvan discusses the Season 2 finale with returning guest Renee. Will finally meets his father, Mrs. Coulter kidnaps Lyra, and we see some major character deaths and the return of two big characters from season 1. Thanks for listening! See you next season!Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b90 min
- Season 2 Episode 6: Malice with @jeffinitelyjeffEvan discusses Episode 6 of Season 2 with Jeff Ruberg, a.k.a. @jeffinitelyjeff (host of the Love It Or Weeb It and Podigious podcasts). This episode is a bit of a bridge, setting us up for the finale, but it still has a few high points. Mrs. Coulter’s terrifying confrontation with the Spectres and a big twist in her relationship with Boreal, the revelation of Lyra’s “other name,” and a high-flying chase scene with Lee and Jopari!Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b90 min
- Season 2 Episode 5: The Scholar with @illegenesEvan discusses Episode 5 of Season 2 with Natasha, a.k.a. @illegenes (check out her anime blogging on Isn’t It Electrifying). It’s a high-stakes heist episode in which Lyra and Will sneak into Lord Boreal’s house, but we spend a lot of time talking about the incredible amount of character development Mrs. Coulter gets as she explores a world in which women are far more free than they are in her world.Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b90 min
- Season 2 Episode 4: Tower of the Angels with @tiffysniffsEvan discusses Episode 4 of Season 2 with Tiffany, a.k.a. @tiffysniffs, another huge fan of the books! This episode is the most exciting one yet, with multiple action scenes and the long-awaited introduction of the Subtle Knife and Stanislaus Grumman. Plus: Lyra and Will’s relationship just keeps getting more complex and satisfying as the series goes on!Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b90 min
- Season 2 Episode 3: Theft with @sasuraigerEvan discusses Episode 3 of Season 2 with Dave, a.k.a. @sasuraiger, the first non-book reader guest of Season 2! This episode has got some more development in Lyra and Will’s relationship, the titular theft of the alethiometer by Lord Boreal, and an incredible interrogation scene between Mrs. Coulter and Lee! Plus: Iorek, the return of Evan’s Dæmon Corner, and entirely too much talking about Paddington.Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b90 min

Lyra explores Will’s Oxford and meets the wonderful Mary Malone (one of Evan’s favorite characters), Mrs. Coulter orchestrates Father McPhail’s rise to power, plus lots of great little moments of character development. Apologies for the audio quality; Cara had to record using her iPad!Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b90 min
- Season 2 Episode 1: The City of Magpies with @liamdangerShadow Particles is back for His Dark Materials Season 2! Returning host Evan Minto and first-time guest Liam Campbell gush about Lyra and Will’s first meeting and the show-don’t-tell character writing that sets this first episode off from Season 1. Plus a whole lot of appreciation for the renewed focus on dæmons in this season!Email questions and responses to [email protected]!Podcast art photo courtesy of WillGrunenthalsART, licensed via Creative Commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/c4c89e77-86e3-4217-ba51-14abdc8445b90 min
