United Kingdom2 years ago - A perfect podcast
I can’t believe I’ve only just come across this, and have been overjoyed at getting to binge 26 episodes at once. What a gorgeous podcast! It’s funny, gentle, thoughtful, with a brilliant range of guests — I’ve been fascinated by each one’s story, even those I’d not heard of before, and have picked up loads of new games, books, and other bits and pieces to follow along the way. more

United States3 years ago - Thoughtful, silly, introspective
Al has such an easy manner in engaging his guests combined with an understated humour, which allows an open discussion on a wide range of topics from varied media personalities. This is a rare podcast that made me smile while considering ideas ranging from societal to personal to just plain silly. This is a must for fans of Terry Pratchett and for those that have an interest in SFF.

Just listened to this podcast. It’s fascinating hearing writers dig into the aspects they love about this series and how they have influenced them, plus the interview format is very relaxed. It’s just nice to hear people share in something they’re so enthusiastic about and as someone who wants to research Pratchett academically I can tell this will be a potentially useful resource.
