| 6/19/26 | ![]() We Read Winnie the Pooh | Here are Eleanor and Alasdair, coming down the stairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head. That's right, Eleanor has murdered Alasdair. But not before recording this month's episode all about A. A. Milne's 1926 classic Winnie the Pooh. Will Eleanor be able to contain her disdain for the 1966 Disney movie? Will Alasdair's Alan Bennett impression comes out more like Les Dennis doing Mavis from Coronation Street? And are ANY Winnie the Pooh quotes genuine? In the words of A. A. Milne, "I pity the fool who gets on a plane." | 39m 30s | ||||||

| 7/19/25 | ![]() We Read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland | We're all mad here. Specifically, Eleanor is mad about people saying Lewis Carroll wrote Alice's Adventures in Wonderland on drugs and Alasdair is mad about the Tim Burton film being rubbish. For this episode, we read Carroll's enormously influential 1865 novel, and we asked: do books actually need plots? Or will some 160 year-old puns do? Content Warning: We make allusions to the controversy surrounding Carroll, without going into detail. Buy us a coffee: ko-fi.com/readthat_podcast | 36m 14s | ||||||
| 6/19/25 | ![]() We Read The Secret Garden | Sickly, spoiled and terrified of the outside world, Eleanor and Alasdair read The Secret Garden. Frances Hodgson Burnett's kidlit classic is the story of an obnoxious little girl who goes to Yorkshire on her gap year and really finds herself. Is the book an ode to the healing powers of nature? Or is it a hippy-fascist self-help tract? And which film adaptation is best — the one Eleanor watched as a kid, or the steampunk Mormon version? Content Warning: References to ableism and British colonialism. And we inaccurately describe Yorkshire as "a big county" when it is, in fact, four counties. | 34m 29s | ||||||
| 5/19/25 | ![]() We Read The Weirdstone of Brisingamen | Like a pair of creepy twins, Eleanor and Alasdair venture up Alderley Edge to meet the Wizard. We read The Weirdstone of Brisingamen, Alan Garner's 1960 folk horror classic. Is it too scary for kids, or just too scary for Alasdair? Did Eleanor really fall asleep at the end of the audiobook? And what, exactly, does a rustic Cheshire accent sound like? We simply don't know. | 34m 00s | ||||||
| 4/19/25 | ![]() We Read The Witches | Eleanor and Alasdair read a Roald Dahl book about some absolutely horrid women. "Which one?" you quite reasonably ask. It's The Witches: a grotesquely funny revenge caper fuelled by 'stranger danger' anxiety. What do you do when a beloved children's author is a bit of a bigot? Which of Dahl's books scandalised nine-year-old Eleanor's schoolteacher? And exactly what accent was Anne Hathaway doing in the movie? Listen, and find out if The Witches really is a revolting classic or just a rotten stinker. Content Warning: References to antisemitism, misogyny & fatphobia. And we do impressions of the actor Bill Paterson. | 38m 10s | ||||||
| 3/19/25 | ![]() We Read Peter Rabbit | Eleanor and Alasdair read The Tale of Peter Rabbit, the story of a semi-nude rabbit tormenting the Scotsman who killed his father. Beatrix Potter's first book was a world-wide smash hit, but is it actually good? And would it be improved by the addition of James Corden? Alasdair watched the movie, so you don't have to. Content Warning: Eleanor calls Squirrel Nutkin a c***. | 31m 38s | ||||||
| 2/19/25 | ![]() We Read Treasure Island | Eleanor and Alasdair read Treasure Island: an adventure full of deadly danger and dubious male role models. Basically like social media today. | 30m 36s | ||||||
| 1/19/25 | ![]() We Read The Famous Five | Putting the ginger in ginger beer, Eleanor and Alasdair read Five Go To Demon’s Rocks. Does Enid Blyton deserve her controversial reputation? | 33m 17s | ||||||
| 12/20/24 | ![]() We Read The Hobbit - Pilot Episode | Eleanor and Alasdair read The Hobbit. J. R. R. Tolkien's 1937 novel is a millennial horror story about a guy who has to attend an unexpected party. It's also a children's fantasy classic, and the inspiration for three obscure art-house films. But is it good? Would Eleanor read it to her hypothetical child? Will Alasdair enjoy reading it for the first time? And is it really possible to tell the dwarves apart? | 30m 11s | ||||||
