We got so, so normal about this. Kim for the next episode of @makeyefretpod.bsky.social (out on the 10th, as is the book!)
Discussing Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil with @2hatsjo.bsky.social has already lead to multiple tangents. (Bloody good book, though, you’re going to want to read it on launch day.)

ICYMI: Some wonderful members of the Discworld family popped up in our “Gender on the Discworld episode” to share the love for our trans community (and get us a bit weepy):

It’s possible that, while discussing Gender on the Discworld (episode available on YouTube: youtu.be/OXJYfghjUDA?... ) as well as the usual places, we occasionally wondered off topic.

Happy Terry Pratchett Day! We’ve spent 100s of hours on 100s of episodes talking about this great man’s work, and it could never be enough.

There’s smoke in the library, an owl hooting in the hall of spiders and an Earl unattended on a raft in Titus Groan part 2!

The first episode of @makeyefretpod.bsky.social’s new season is out, in which they very kindly discuss a favourite book I’ve already read: Titus Groan, the first book of Gormenghast!

Yes, Jo and Francine are having a fit of Peake and it’s great fun.

April Fools!

Alright, we’re not actually becoming a full-time Gormenghast podcast. Life is simply too short.

BUT, we will be covering the first book in the trilogy (Titus Grown) this very month! And there’s plenty of delights in store for the rest of the year.
April 1, 2025 at 7:12 PM
We’re finally back and embarking on a brand new journey!

Announcing GORMENCAST, in which we’ll be reading and recapping every book in Mervyn Peake’s Gormenghast trilogy, a chapter at a time.

We can’t wait to wander this sprawling castle with you!

Jo and Francine at @makeyefretpod.bsky.social have impeccable timing - they’re in the middle of covering the forty-first and final #Discworld book just as we’ve passed the forty-first anniversary of Discworld (The Colour of Magic published on 24 November, 1983).
