  • Dining Table Discworld - Reaper Man
    Oct 27 2024

    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."

  • Dining Table Discworld - Quadrant 1 Review
    Sep 28 2024

    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.

  • Dining Table Discworld - Moving Pictures
    Aug 28 2024

    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.

    With wizards, dogs, boding fogs and an orangutan in distress. Plus A Thousand Elephants!

  • Dining Table Discworld - Eric
    Jul 29 2024

    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.

  • Dining Table Discworld - Guards! Guards!
    Jun 22 2024

    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.

  • Dining Table Discworld - Pyramids
    May 22 2024

    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.

  • Dining Table Discworld - Sourcery
    Mar 27 2024

    In this episode, we discuss Sourcery, where Rincewind pre-emptively runs from a sourceror bringing reality-bending amounts of power to the Unseen University.

    Find out why the villain acts as a dark mirror of Rincewind and why we weren't so impressed with his travelling companions.
