Kicking things off is the news that there’s a new fantasy sheriff in town – or there will be soon as Discworld’s Ankh-Morpork City Watch are getting their own TV series (which makes us very, very happy). After that we discover that someone else has discovered a lock of what is possibly George Washington’s hair in an old almanac, get some reasons to be optimistic from Talking Heads front man David Byrne, applaud Dolly Parton’s generous book donations, wonder why Terry Goodkind doesn’t like his cover art, and find out that ebooks are apparently stupid (according to a publisher of “real” books). Our featured book is Spare And Found Parts by Sarah Maria Griffin.

Author Dave Rudden joins Alan and Sarah so that they can feel all the emotions about Terry Pratchett. This is a long one so make a pot of tea or plan a long drive somewhere. We focused mostly on the Discworld novels particularly Vimes and the witches. There’s lots of enthusing and lots of quoting from memory. Hopefully it’ll make you pick up a Discworld book or any Terry Pratchett book really. They’re pretty much all good. Enjoy. Dave’s books Knights Of the Borrowed Dark and The Forever Court are out now. The Forever Court is nominated for Senior Children’s Book of the Year a the BGE Irish Book Awards. If you’re quick you can still vote for it here Sarah’s book Spare And Found Parts will be out in Ireland, the UK, and Australia in Feb 2018. Alan has another podcast running until Christmas. It’s called Roast Chestnuts. He reviews a made for TV Christmas movie with Jeanne Sutton and a special guest every week. If you like Juvenalia, you’ll like Roast Chestnuts.

Caroline O’Donoghue (@czaroline) is a contributing editor with The Pool and an author whose first book, Promising Young Women, will be released by Virago in early 2018. She joined Alan and Sarah to talk about 90’s sitcoms with a particular focus on Frasier. We talked a lot about David Hyde Pierce, the wonders of Daphne Moon and Lilith, metrosexuality, and the art of farce. We also jumped off into talks about Just Shoot Me, Cybil, and the effect that Friends had on a generation of Irish people. Then we finished up with a little metatalk about Juvenalia itself. It got real. Afterwards we had prosecco and bacon fries. Hopefully you’ll want to drink and eat crisps too while you’re listening.
