With special guest Kat Kuhl! Deep in the heart of Uberwald, a political struggle is taking place. And because of the draw of Ankh-Morpork, these internecine struggles are spilling over on Sam Vimes's streets. Vetinari sees an opportunity, and sends Sam and Sybil to wedge things open.

Time for some unrefined vampire bullshit!

Strewth! The gang covers The Last Continent and the last main-fiction Rincewind novel--and is joined by two friends from another hemisphere.

Yet again someone attempts to remove Vetinari from the helm of Ankh-Morpork, but instead of strict political intrigue, this time they're using the old fashioned method--poison. As Vimes expands his heart and mind to encompass the growing ranks (and even files!) of the City Watch, the book tackles issues of identity and self-definition even more pointedly than ever. This book has it all--a VERY good trans narrative, golem, a well constructed noir-style mystery, and seizing the means of production. Especially when YOU are the means of production.

War comes to the Disc. Not one of those normal everyday skirmishes, but a traditional one. With Politics. And Racism. And stuck in the middle of it is our favorite suspicious bastard, Sir Samuel Vimes.

Special Guest: The Internet's Scott Paladin!

We return to publication order with Maskerade, a Witch-ful sendup of Andrew Lloyd Weber. Parts of it are fun!

We went a bit out of order because we deserved it. It is the glorious 25th of May and we're doing Hogfather!

Interesting Times is a challenging one from a modern perspective. It is centered around an unfortunately common fantasy trope of "pretty much East Asia". Approach with caution.

In a fight between Death and Music, who wins?

Us.

We are joined by Sharang Biswas, game designer/creative writer/Magpie GM/awesome friend, as we discuss the second Guards novel in the series.
