Vorbis continues to be cartoonishly evil, Om makes a deal for Brutha's life, and Brutha meets the demonized Ephebians and their philosophers. Said demon philosophers spend surprising amounts of time being naked in the streets and drunkenly arguing with each other. Brutha questions a lot about how he was raised. The Omnians are bullied into signing a peace treaty - until they aren't. Vorbis enacts a long-developed plan to invade Ephebe from the desert, sacking the city. Also, we meet Death.Next week: We cover the next 25% of Small Gods, ending on the line: "It was time to do something about Omnia." Bonus Episodes and more available on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

HPR3876: Recording An Episode For Hacker Public Radio

Hacker Public Radio

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 12, 2023


Hello again, my name is André Jaenisch, also known as Ryuno-Ki. Last week I recorded my first episode for Hacker Public Radio, the podcast you are listening to right now. This one is recorded on 15th May 2023. Again I'm publishing it under a Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 4.0 International License. Getting contacted I was surprised to get mentioned on the Fediverse after submitting my show. You can find me there at RyunoKi@layer8.space (no dash, eight as digit, link in the shownotes) in case you want to reach out to me. I'm also delighted to have received an email even before my last episode was airing. I was asked whether I am interested in recording an episode on my experience with contributing to Hacker Public Radio for the first time. So this is going to be the topic for today. As a warning upfront: I have a reputation of overthinking stuff. I blame my neurodiversity for it. That being said I'm positive that sharing my thought process can help make the service better for everyone. About recording software I'm recording this episode again using Audacity. Now there is choice about which software you can use for a podcast. Online based as well as offline one. Audacity was in the news for sending analytics home. However I couldn't find any indication in the settings for it (to opt-out). The forks of the software weren't packaged up for Debian as far as I could tell. Or perhaps they require an additional sources.list entry, I don't know. Before recording my very first podcast here I had only experience with some video recording. Oftentimes done by the host but I also prepared a few videos for an online course (which I couldn't publish because life happened) and talks I gave during the pandemic years. Learning about how to podcast As I often do when I enter a new subject, I went to the library and grabbed some books to learn more. In particular I lended Podcasts by Dirk Hildebrand. A small book in German published at Haufe. I add a link in the shownotes. Reading through it I learned that I'm doing okay. It's really easy to start a podcast as HPR promises! The thing I should spend some attention on is keeping a consistent distance to the microphone, enable some level of feedback during the recording so that I can listen to what is recorded while speaking (using my gaming headset Logitech G230) and prepare a script. I don't have to think about designing images for the show or episode because HPR will take care of that for me. It might be different if I start my own podcast. Perhaps using Funkwhale or Castopod. Right now I'm not taking steps towards that. Mainly because I need to rent some webspace first. In my experience streaming media takes considerable amount of bandwidth. Pair that with hosters that try hard to convince you to buy your domains with them as well and the choice shrinks. I have my DNS provider already, thank you very much. Adapting lessons learned I looked into how to do that in Audacity and I think the best I could do for now is hitting on the microphone icon next to the meters in the upper right of the interface and enable observation before I start recording. Also leaving a little bit of time before and after the recording allows me to cut keyboard clicks for starting and stopping the recording. In HPR 3802 I also learned about skipping silences which is a Effect in the Special category here. I hope I don't have pauses so long that it warrants to truncate them. My main thought about going with Audacity was post-processing directly after the recording. I learned from my talks that I already feel comfortable with a script in front of me. It gives me the security I need to avoid too many ums. What's missing on HPR However, I feel like a few things are missing. Considering that this is a podcast that is distributed through HPR and its partners I would like to have chapter markers. I couldn't find a hint on how to add them in the form I was presented. Using timestamps it allows to easily see the outline of a recording which aids in the decision making process on whether it's worth the time to listen to a particular episode. I hope you consider the episodes here useful to make time for them :) Thank you. Another question mark I had when preparing the recording were the settings. I'm used to have a guideline when recording videos for an online talk. Things like preferred format and container, to technical details like stereo or mono to the sampling rate (value and whether static or variable). The only thing I found is a hint that submissions will be transcoded to mono. I record in stereo with the default 44,1 kHz sampling rate here. There was no recommendations on the format so I went with OGG Vorbis instead of MP3 because of license freedom. Audacity appear to not support FLAC so I have to use a lossy format. It's true that MP3 enjoys wide support, but I want to encourage freedom when given the choice. I could have chosen WAV files but those tend to become huge really fast. Adding metadata Now I also add metadata to the recording. Vorbis offers comments for that. You can compare it to ID3 tags for MP3 files. Given that I couldn't find a way to enter these chapter information in HPR web forms I'm experimenting with EasyTAG from the debian repository. From reading the source code of my podcatcher of choice (AntennaPod for Android as distributed in the F-Droid app store) I can tell that it parses these comments at least. If that doesn't yield results I hope to see, there is vorbiscomment of the vorbis-tools package for the command line. And Kid3 with a Qt or CLI interface. Expect some slightly different metadata by me over the course of my contributions. Writing shownotes Last thing I want to highlight before ending this episode is shownotes. Now I have more experience with blogging than recording a podcast. When researching recommendations online there is all this SEO fluff that goes into writing subtitles. Usually with catchy titles, clickbait and all the rest. I have opinions here. However, I enjoy that there is no „leave a rating and a review” part in the episodes I listened to so far, because a podcast is a special RSS feed basically. Why would I want to bind myself to a special platform? But then I also want to be able to read up and search through the content of a podcast episode. Right now I'm sharing my prepared script as a shownote. It could come off as a wall of text. I'm open to feedback on this front. You can find my Keyoxide profile below. Please do reach out to me. Closing And that's it for today. I thank you for listening to me. Looking forward to hear from you. Be it in writing or as an episode on HPR.

Alternatively, the word “podcast” may refer to the individual component of such a series or to an individual media file Podcasting often uses a subscription model, whereby new episodes automatically download via web syndication to a user’s own local computer, mobile application, or portable media player Some have labeled podcasting a “converged medium,” that is bringing together audio, the web, and portable media players, as well as a disruptive technology, having caused some in the radio business to reconsider established practices and preconceptions about audiences, consumption, production, and distribution Listeners typically consume podcasts for free, and producers can usually create them for little to no cost. This sets podcast apart from the traditional 20th-century model of “gate-kept” media. Podcasting is a horizontal media form--producers are consumers, consumers may become producers, and both can engage in conversations with each other Variants of podcasts include  Enhanced podcasts, which can display images synchronized with audio. These can contain chapter markers, hyperlinks, and artwork Podcast novels, also known as serialized audiobooks or podcast audiobooks. This is a literary form that combines the concepts of a podcast and an audiobook. Like a traditional novel is a work of long literary fiction; however this form of the novel is recorded into episodes that are delivered online over a period of time and in the end is available as a complete work for download. They can vary from new works from new authors that have never been printed, to well-established authors that have been around for years, to classic works of literature that have been in print for over a century  Video podcasts, which include video clips. Web television series are often distributed as video podcasts Oggcast, which is a podcast recorded and distributed exclusively in the Vorbis audio codec with the Ogg container format, which is a format state that is unrestricted by software patents. The name is derived from “ogging”, jargon from the computer game Netrek, which came to mean doing something forcefully, possibly without consideration of the drain on future resources Political podcasts, which focus on current events, usually last 30 minutes to an hour, often featuring journalists, politicians, pollsters, writers, and others with credentials in the public sphere. Most have a host-guest interview format and are broadcast each week based on the news cycle Podguide, an enhanced audio tour podcast. It’s a single audio file where each chapter displays a picture and a number of what to look at a certain stopover. The numbers correspond to the numbers on a map that can be downloaded via the link incorporated into the artwork of the chapters in the podguide. Wikipedia describes it as being like a soundseeing tour but with pictures and a map, so users can take the tour themselves It was previously known as “audioblogging”, and has its roots dating back to the 1980s. With the advent of broadband internet access and portable digital audio playback devices, podcasting began to catch more mainstream hold in late 2004. In the 1980s, Radio Computing Services (RCS) provided music and talk-related software to radio stations in a digital format Before online music digital distribution, the MIDI format as well as the Mbone, Multicast Network was used to distribute audio and video files. The Mbone was a multicast network over the internet used primarily by educational and research institutes, but there were audio talk programs In 1993, Carl Malamud launched Internet Talk Radio which was the “first computer-radio talk show, each week interviewing a computer expert.” It was distributed “as audio files that computer users fetch one by one.” Malamud said that listeners could pause and restart the audio files at will, as well as skip content they didn’t like In 2001, Applian Technologies introduced Replay Radio, a TiVo-like recorder for Internet Radio Shows. One of the features was a Direct Download link, which would scan a radio publishers site for new files and copy them directly to a PC’s hard disk. The first radio show to publish in this format was WebTalkGuys World Radio Show, produced by Rob and Dana Greenlee In September 2000, the first system that enabled the selection, automatic downloading and storage of serial episodic audio content on PCs and portable devices was launched from early MP3 player manufacturer, i2Go, which introduced a digital audio news and entertainment service called MyAudio2Go. This enabled users to download episodic news, sports, entertainment, weather, and music in audio format for listening on a PC, the eGo portable audio player, or other MP3 players. The app could be programmed to automatically download the latest episodic content from user selected content types to a PC or portable device. Unfortunately, the service succumbed after a little over a year, due to the i2Go company running out of capital during the dot-com crash. In October 2000, the concept of attaching sound and video files in RSS feeds was proposed in a draft by Tristan Louis, and implemented  by Dave Winer. Winer had received other requests for “audioblogging” features and had discussed the enclosure concept with Adam Curry in the same month. They are credited in 2004 for coming up with the idea to automate the delivery and syncing of textual content to portable audio players In September 2003, Winer created a special RSS-with-enclosures feed for his colleague Christopher Lydon’s weblog, which previously only had a text-only RSS feed. When Lydon had accumulated about 25 audio interviews with bloggers, futurists, and political figures, Winer gradually released them as a new RSS feed. Winer challenged other aggregator developers to support this new form of content and provide enclosure support.  Lydon’s blog eventually became Radio Open Source and is now the oldest, still-running podcast Matt Schichter’s The Backstage Pass is widely believed to be the first podcast to be published online, despite lacking a commonly accepted identifying name for the medium. The chat show was launched in October 2003 Ben Hammersley originally suggested the word “podcast” as a portmanteau of “iPod” and “broadcast” in February 2004 Other names in limited use include “net cast,” which is intended as a vendor-neutral term without the loose reference to the Apple iPod. Other sources have suggested “portable on demand” or “POD” for similar reasons In September 2004, blogger and columnist Doc Searls began keeping track of how many “hits” Google found for the word “podcasts”. His first query reportedly returned 24 results. On September 28, there were 526 hits on Google for “podcasts”. On October 1, there were 2750 hits. The number continued to double every few days In June 2005, Apple released iTunes 4.9, which added formal support for podcasts, thus negating the need to use a separate program in order to download and transfer them to a mobile device. While this made access to podcasts more convenient and widespread, it also effectively ended advancement of podcatchers by independent developers. Additionally, Apple issued cease and desist orders to many podcast application developers and service providers for using the terms “iPod” or “Pod” in their products’ names In July 2005, US President George W. Bush became a podcaster of sorts when the White House website added an RSS 2.0 feed to the previously downloadable files of the president’s weekly radio addresses Also in July of that year, the first People’s Choice Podcast Awards were held during Podcast Expo, with awards being given in 20 categories. The Awards are still held annually and now better known as the Podcast Awards, and the now-22 categories are the following. I also added who won for 2018: People’s Choice--The Fantasy Footballers Best Produced--N/A Best Video Podcast--N/A Best Mobile Podcast--N/A Arts--We Like Drinking Business--Extraordinary Women Radio Comedy--2 Girls on a Bench Education--Our Fake History Entertainment--We’re Drunk and We Know Things Food and Drink--N/A Games & Hobbies--Trivial Warfare General--N/A LGBQ--Derek and Romaine Health--A Better Night’s Sleep Government & Organizations--Democracy Works Kids & Family--Cool Facts About Animals Mature--Turn Me On Music--The Modern Vinyl Podcast News & Politics--Consider This Religion & Spirituality--For the Love with Jen Hatmaker Science & Medicine--Curiosity Daily Society-Culture--Travel Oddities Sports & Recreation--The Fantasy Footballers Technology--Why’d You Push That Button?

Podcast This year’s award ceremony was live streamed on September 29 On September 28, 2005, Google found more than 100M hits on the word “podcasts” In December 2005, “podcast” was named the word of the year by the New Oxford American Dictionary, and added the word to the dictionary in 2006 In February 2006, Lance Anderson became the first to take a podcast and create a live venue tour with his podcast The Lance Anderson Podcast Experiment In 2014, This American Life launched the first season of their Serial podcast, and went on to achieve 68 million downloads by the end of Season 1 and became the first podcast to win a Peabody Award. The show is also credited with popularizing true crime podcasts. As of December 2018, Serial is the most downloaded podcast of all time, with 420 million total downloads NPR is the most popular podcast publisher with 175 million downloads and streams every month.  According to a Chartable blog post by Dave Zohrob published in February 2019, we are entering the “Golden Age of Podcasting.”  “Podcasts have been around since at least 2004. But unlike text-based news and blogs, which have gone through waves of centralization and disruption thanks to Facebook and Google, the podcast industry has remained stubbornly decentralized. There are dozens of popular podcast players, and no single gatekeeper in the industry. Despite many attempts, there has never been a ‘Netflix of podcasts.’” Spotify appears to be on an acquisition spree and will be spending hundreds of millions of dollars purchasing podcast hosting platforms, studios, and podcasts themselves. The article states that “Spotify CEO Daniel Ek explicitly referenced Netflix’s strategy as part of their motivation This could signal that we’re on the cusp of a Netflix-style change for podcasting, with “a marked increase in the amount and quality of original audio programming.” Between 2018 and 2019, weekly and monthly listenership jumped from 15% to 23%, or 20 million more frequent listeners in the US alone In total, around 60 million people are listening a few times a week or more, and 91 million people are listening at least once a week In 2018, an average of 575 podcasts were started every day, or about 1 every 3 minutes. Chartable is tracking over 670K podcasts in the Apple Podcasts directory, and over 210K of those published their first episode in 2018 In contrast, there are 35 million YouTube channels, so there is still plenty of room for new entrants in the audio world The article goes on to say that podcasting is exploding because they’re a great way to connect directly to an audience. “There’s no single gatekeeper, or gatekeeping algorithm, that will prevent you from reaching our audience. Edison Research data shows that 87% of podcast listeners listen to most or all of each podcast they listen to, even despite the fact that many episodes may run for hours. This is in contrast to the way that our attention works with other media. Some sources claim that our average attention span is down to 8 seconds. The average watch time for Facebook Watch videos is around 23 seconds. A “good” YouTube consumption rate is somewhere around 50% Listeners binge on podcasts the same way that they binge a new Netflix season Chartable also explains why the podcasting boom is happening now, 15 years after the creation of the medium. There are several broad trends converging, starting with Spotify and   getting serious about competing with Apple, increasing their investments in podcasting in 2018. Google launched a native Google Podcasts app for Android, which has the advantage of working on any Android device without requiring an app installation, meaning that hundreds of millions of Android users now have a “universal link” for podcast listening While Spotify has allowed podcast listening for about three years, they didn’t open the platform to all podcasters until 2018. Spotify has significantly increased the prominence of podcasts, which is showing in their downland stats, having doubled from 2017-2018 from 4.4% to 8.5%. Most of those listeners are new to podcasts, meaning that Spotify didn’t poach listeners from other hosting platforms, but rather created new listeners simply by exposure  Additionally, the prevalence of smartphones is crucial for the podcast boom, since smartphones are by far the most popular device for audio listening. Streaming media make up the majority of mobile data usage, and that share is continuing to grow Another factor is connected car adoption. A quarter of all listeners do most of their listening in the car, and as more cars adopt Apple’s CarPlay and Android Auto, people are choosing to listen to podcasts or streaming services like Spotify or Apple Music rather than traditional AM/FM radio Other converging trends include the popularity of smart speakers, and that generally more audio of various kinds are being more widely consumed and easily accessed, such as streaming music services, meditation apps, and audiobooks. Chartable predicts that this Golden Age of Podcasts will lead to more high-quality shows, podcasts will continue to grow their share of overall attention, new models for funding the production of a show will emerge, advertisers and other funders will be able to expect more precise and transparent measure of audience engagement (other than download numbers), Spotify will create more exclusive content to aggregate and retain listeners, but Apple will maintain a strong position The blog post closes out with this optimistic comparison: “Our current Golden Age of Television started 80 years after the invention of TV, and a decade after the invention of the Web. And despite some dire warnings, the trend in more and better TV programming has yet to slow. In comparison, the Golden Age of Podcasts only took 15 years since the invention of the medium, and it’s just getting started.” International Podcast Day history The holiday was co-founded in 2014 by a father and son team, Steve and Dave Lee. They also co-host the podcast The Waves of Tech, which was launched in March of 2007 and currently consists of nearly 500 episodes.  From a 2018 article by Morgan Hines on discoverpods.com, it was seven years after they started their podcast that they had the idea to create the holiday. Steve was driving and “heard a radio commercial for National Senior Citizen Day and wondered immediately why there wasn’t a day to celebrate podcasters and podcasting.” They chose September because the first podcast was released in September 2004, and the day after their 2014 National Podcast Day event, they “heard overwhelmingly from the international podcasting community to be represented and involved--hence, the birth of International Podcast Day.” From their website, internationalpodcastday.com, they describe the day a “great opportunity to connect with fellow podcasters, podcast listeners, podcast enthusiasts, and leaders in the podcasting industry.” Since the inaugural holiday, Steven and Dave have featured podcasters from 55 countries. The day is comprised of several events that take place in both an official and unofficial capacity. They host a 33-hour live video stream, where podcasters present their story or topic in their own language, though the majority are presented in English. The holiday events start at 8AM on September 29 and end at 10PM on the 30th. They note that podcasters around the world also take part in their own ways, coming up with unofficial events of their own. Internationalpodcastday.com has a page listing such events, and continues to take submissions from podcasters trying to spread the word about their own. When I checked the page in mid-September, there were events listed in Poland, Paris, Germany, North Carolina, Wisconsin, India, and Brazil  According to nationaldaycalendar.com, they created the holiday as a way to raise awareness of podcasting as an excellent entertainment and educational medium Fun facts/stats--from weeditpodcast.com, wikipedia, podcastinsights.com, podcastprogress.com Of 300K podcast listeners, 63% bought something that the host had promoted on their show. Of that same group, 71% said they had visited a sponsor’s website, while 62% said they would consider paying for the advertised product or service Podcast subscriptions soared past the 1 billion mark back in 2013 There are 7 billion mobile devices worldwide, and 58% of Americans own a smartphone. One in four podcast consumers play their audio device in their car “nearly every day.” Only 6% of all marketers are using podcasting as a form of content (2016) Podcast listeners consume more than 105 minutes of audio per day than the average American. They spend more than 35% of that total audio time listening to podcasts Today, there are more than 115K English-language podcasts available, and dozens of websites available for distribution for little or no cost to the producer or listener According to one 2017 survey, 42M Americans above the age of 12 listen to podcast on at least a weekly basis As of June 2019, there are currently over 750K podcasts, with over 30million episodes A huge jump from April 2018, at which point FastCompany stated that there were “over 525K shows and over 18.5million episodes” (podcastprogress.com) According to Chartable in 2018, an average of 757 podcasts were launched every day, or about one every three minutes.  There is a high level of podfading--few people keep it going after a few episodes. Between 50% and 75% of podcasts end up podfading after 7 episodes 51% of the US population has listened to a podcast 49% of podcast listening is done at home. 22% is done in the car 80% of listeners listen to all or most of each podcast episode and listens to an average of 7 shows per week Listenership is split between women and men at about 44%/56%, respectively 50% or over 60 million homes are podcast fans 70% of the US population is familiar with the term “podcasting”--up from 64% in 2018 51% of the US population has listened to a podcast--up from 44% in 2018 32% (90 million) listened to a podcast in the last month 22% (62 million) listen to podcasts weekly 16 million people in the US are “avid podcast fans” 45% of monthly podcast listeners have household income over $75K--vs 35% for the total population 27% of US podcast listeners have a 4-year college degree 36% of podcast listeners are non-white Podcast listeners subscribe to an average of 6 shows 19% of listeners increase the speed 65% of monthly podcast listeners have been listening for less than 3 years Comedy is the most popular podcasting genre, followed by education and news Podcast listeners are much more active on every social media channel (94% are active on at least one vs 81% for the entire population) Listeners are more likely to follow companies and brands on social media Listeners are also more likely to subscribe to Netflix or Amazon Prime--meaning that they are less likely to be exposed to TV advertising Listeners are more likely to own a smart speaker such as Amazon Alexa or Google Home 51% of bottled water households are podcast listeners, as are 57% of baby food households 53% of beer households 56% of juice households 54% of milk households 54% of cereal households 69% agreed that podcast ads made them aware of new products or services South Korea leads the world in the percentage of people who have listened to a podcast in the past month with 58% The top five are rounded out with Spain at 40%, Sweden at 36%, Australia at 33%, and the US at 33% Classes of MBA students have been commissioned to research podcasting and compare possible business models, and venture capital flowing to influential content providers Podsafe music refers to tracks, by independent as well as signed acts, that are available for use on podcasts without significant cost or licensing difficulty Podnography is also becoming a thing.

Witches and Wizards Portal

We continue our exploration of belief and metaphor, the life force, and narrative causality as the drivers of the Discworld's physics. Don't worry though, that's not as dreadful as it might sound.  In which we hear of Om, former small god desperate not to return to that status (and currently manifested in the form of a one-eyed tortoise) and of the relationship between belief and a god's power. We also encounter Vorbis, a most unpleasant deacon of the Church of Om, and a man with who the protagonist of Small Gods, the novice Brutha (oh, brutha!) will have much to do over the course of the book.This week's trivia question: “A famous Ankh-Morpork tavern has a different name in The Color Of Magic than in later books. Give either name.” The first three correct listeners to answer correctly will get their names into the drawing for the Season Two grand prize, which my producer assures me will be quite grand indeed. As always, randy@mindkindle.net is the way to reach me.

Episode twice-the-number-which-must-not-be-spoken (i.e. sixteen) takes us inside the Church of Om for a story of faith, religion and truth as we're joined by the Reverend Doctor Avril Hannah-Jones to discuss the 1992 Discworld novel, Small Gods! Brutha is a lowly novice in the Omnian Citadel, dismissed by his superiors as a simpleton whose only notable talent is an extraordinary memory. He's the last person expecting to hear the Voice of the Great God Om, though Brutha has his doubts: Om is supposed to manifest as a mighty golden bull or pillar of flame, not a one-eyed tortoise. Om's not happy either: this isn't how he planned his return from the celestial realm, and no-one but Brutha can hear him. Before god or novice can figure out what's happening, Brutha is recruited by Deacon Vorbis - head of the feared Quisition - for a mission to nearby Ephebe: a nation of heretics, democracy and philosophers, one of whom has dared to pen a treatise describing the world as a flat disc which travels through space on the back of a turtle... One of the few truly standalone Discworld novels, Small Gods focuses on how humans of the Disc create gods, rather than the other way round - for good and for ill. Drawing on the best and worst traditions of monotheism, Galileo's defiance in the face of Catholic censure, and big philosophical questions, Small Gods still manages to be full of Pratchett's trademark humour and humanism, and a long-time favourite for many fans. Do you rate it amongst the best Discworld novels? Would you recommend someone start with it? We'd love to hear from you! Use the hashtag #Pratchat16 on social media to join the conversation.

Show Notes and Errata: The Reverend Doctor Avril Hannah-Jones is a Minister in the Uniting Church and an all-round wonderful human being. Always a geek, Avril rose to fame in 2011 via Adam Hills' ABC comedy show In Gordon Street Tonight with the foundation of the Church of the Latter Day Geek, which for some reason got more attention than any of the work she has done advocating for LGBTIAQ rights or asylum seekers. Avril also appeared in the Seven/Religion episode of Splendid Chaps (mostly in part two, but you may also want to listen to part one), and on Doctor Who and the Episodes of Death. You can read about her adventures at her blog, Rev Doc Geek, follow her on Twitter at @DocAvvers, or head along to a Sunday service at Williamstown Uniting Church.The film Highlander (dir. Russell Mulcahy, 1986) stars Christopher Lambert as Connor MacLeod, the titular highlander, who discovers he is one of the immortals - seemingly ordinary humans who cannot die unless decapitated, and who are drawn to fight each other, stealing the magical power of other immortals whom they defeat until only one remains to collect "the Prize". As well as being very 1980s, it has a killer soundtrack by Queen, songs from which can be found on their 1986 album It's a Kind of Magic.We're pretty sure the cake Liz is thinking of is Breudher, a delicious buttery Sri Lankan cake with a Dutch influence.

Radio Morpork is a podcast that discusses Terry Pratchett's Discworld one book at a time. Colm & Steve journey deep into the desert (of the mind) and re-emerge as literary prophets, rambling about theology and tortoises. Their discussion takes in the opposition between flexibility and certainty, the character development (and occasional strange turns) of Brutha and Vorbis, and a veritable holy war about how to rank the book.
