Dining Table Discworld

Rincewind has returned, again. Sent to another part of the Disc, he meets old friends and runs away from new troubles. Can someone steal an empire? Are Geography teachers good at heists? What's with all the butterflies? Content note for discussion of rape jokes, orientalism and fatphobia.

Death takes a holiday again, but this time it's compassionate leave. Susan makes a smaller mistake than her father did, but unlike him she was given basically no training. Meanwhile Music With Rocks In is driving people wild in Ankh-Morpork, and there are more puns than you can shake a drumstick at.

The Watch is growing, and they'll let anyone in nowadays. With Captain Vimes soon to retire and the more old school officers dubious about the new recruits the last thing the Night Watch needs is a high profile murder they absolutely are not supposed to investigate. We discuss policing, diversity, class consciousness and what counts as undead.

The witches are back! Nanny Ogg - nice but also underhanded. Magrat - almost queen, but somehow still being unfairly treated like a silly girl. Granny Weatherwax - realises the death that she feels coming may not be hers. We also discuss witchcraft's recruitment problem, being suspicious of anyone who seems too glamorous, why elves might look like AI art, and Summer Lovin' Lancre edition.

Sometimes you didn't mean to write a religious text, you just wanted to keep your barrel furnished. We discuss Pratchett's big work about religion, belief, philosophy and kindness against all odds. With examples of How To Be and a variety of tangents along the way. No one expects the simultaneous inquisition.

The Witches are Abroad, spreading chaos across half a continent, beset by stories & pumpkins.

Only 2 things are inevitable, and even Death can't avoid the Revenoo. Like the religious community of Ankh-Morpork we find Mrs Cake somewhat problematic. With wizards, undead, snow globes and an employment tribunal at the End of the Universe. "Maybe life is something you acquire."

Having read 1/4 of Discworld we discuss our faves, what surprised us, some early themes and continuity. We decide Pyramids is the most standalone and Death's search for work-life balance is relatable. Plus Dave introduces his Weatherwax head cannon.

A man, a talking dog, and a girl, in a Worlde gone Madde! Anhk Morpork loves the clicks, but while folk are trying to break into moving Pictures there are Things trying to break out.

Somehow Rincewind has returned... and this book reveals how. This romp through time and mythology showcases the illustrations of Josh Kirby. We go around on the theme of whether time is cyclical and tangent on Troy. We also ask our listeners to let us know what they want to hear and mention some other fine Discworld podcasts.

A book full of weird little guys and the too-relevant harnessing of small-minded resentfulness in the cause of a harmful power play. We discuss why Lady Sybil is great, the difference between a reign of terror and keyhole surgery of terror, and how the best employee perks are simply more money and more time off.

An interesting story with good riffing on popular ancient history, but doesn't feel like Pratchett is railing against anything. Featuring various tangents about ancient Egyptian history, and a flashback to watching 10,000 BC (a deeply incorrect film). Plus timey wimey stuff and mathsy words.
