| 8/7/25 |  Browsing Ben’s Bookshelf (bonus books) | Our August episode has been delayed! In this bonus bit of Pratchat to fill the gap, Ben takes us for a quick look at the stuff on his Pratchett shelves which probably won't make it into another episode. | — | ||||||
| 7/7/25 |  Exclusive Possession: Ankh-Morpork Edition (Discworld: Ankh-Morpork board game) | The Patrician is missing! So of course Liz, Ben and guest Richard McKenzie have to go head-to-head for control of the biggest (and grossest) city on the Disc… Join us as we complete our collection of Discworld board games by discussing Martin Wallace’s 2011 design, Discworld: Ankh-Morpork. | — | ||||||
| 6/8/25 |  Of the Watch the Last (Snuff) | Liz, Ben and guest Pratchett scholar Freyja Stokes head downriver to the Shires for an adventure featuring Vimeses, goblins, murderers, double meanings and one Wonderful Fanny. Join us as we discuss Terry Pratchett’s last Watch-focused Discworld novel, 2011’s Snuff. | — | ||||||
| 5/25/25 |  A (Not So) Glorious Announcement | A very brief little episode to say that we won’t have any episodes in May. We didn’t want to leave you without anything at all! As Ben suggests, why not listen to The Truth Shall Make Ye Fret’s special 25th of May episode, “Gender on the Discworld”, released today? You can find it in all major podcast directories, at thetruthshallmakeyefret.com, and there’s even a video version on YouTube. Or you could listen to #Pratchat54, “The Land Before Vimes”, our 2022 episode about Night Watch. We’ll be back in June with #Pratchat86, our episode about Snuff. And we will be producing an all-questions Eeek Club episode later in the year, so if you’re an Eeek-tier subscriber, please send us your question or topic for discussion! Want to help us get to the end of our six(ish) year mission and read every Pratchett book – and more? You can support us with a tip, or a subscription for as little as $2 a month, and that’s cuttin’ our own throats! See our Support Us page for details. | — | ||||||
| 4/7/25 |  Eight Days an Opening (The Ankh-Morpork Archives & The Discworld Almanak) | Liz and Ben venture into the archives and come back with their highlights from the diaries, yearbooks and guides to some of Ankh-Morpork's most famous instutions - plus that venerable publication, the ever-reliable Almanak! | — | ||||||
| 3/7/25 |  AT LAST, SIR TERRY ("Shaking Hands with Death") | Liz, Ben and guest Myfanwy Coghill talk not about DEATH but death, and specifically the idea of being able to choose a good one for yourself, as we discuss Terry Pratchett's 2010 Richard Dimbleby lecture, "Shaking Hands with Death". This episode includes discussion of death, terminal illness, assisted dying and suicide. | — | ||||||
| 2/7/25 |  Discworld: The Flamethrower (Discworld merchandise) | Our episode discussing The Ankh-Morpork Archives and The Discworld Almanak is delayed, so here Ben’s discussing some of the most interesting and fun Discworld merchandise that isn’t shaped like a book. | — | ||||||
| 1/7/25 |  This Time for Ankh-Morpork (Unseen Academicals) | Pratchat United have added some real talent to the conversation with Dr Tansy Rayner Roberts PhD (Classics), which is just as well because a few late scoring questions from the Listeners look set to push things into extra time... Lots of excitement in this, Terry Pratchett’s 37th Discworld match, UNSEEN ACADEMICALS! | — | ||||||
| 12/7/24 |  Clack Go the Gears (Clacks board game) | Welcome to the final round of selection for Grand Trunk Semaphore Clacks Operators! We only take the best, so you’re going to have to race the other candidates to show you have what it takes to send a message all the way to Genua faster than a speeding horse. You’ll be competing against potential “friends of Moist" Nicholas J Johnson and Lawrence Leung, current champion Elizabeth Flux, and distractible monologuer Ben McKenzie. We’ll be using the official simulation: BackSpindle Games’ CLACKS, based on Terry Pratchett’s Going Postal. | — | ||||||
| 11/7/24 |  Only Fowls and Horses (“Hollywood Chickens” and “From the Horse’s Mouth") | Our Clacks were jammed this month, so here’s a Pratchat we prepared earlier: Dr Laura Jean McKay joins us to discuss talking animals, class relations, extreme evolution and existential dread as we talk about Terry Pratchett’s short stories “Hollywood Chickens” and “From the Horse’s Mouth”. | — | ||||||
| 10/7/24 |  Always Believe in Your Golems (Making Money) | Pratchat moves onto the Stephanie Convery Standard as we discuss gold, obsession, wealth, money and small dogs with inappropriate toys. Yes, it's Terry Pratchett’s Making Money! | — | ||||||
| 9/7/24 |  Cover Stamps (Discworld covers, Going Postal recap) | Our Making Money episode is delayed, so here’s a brief discussion of Ben’s favourite Discworld book covers, and a recap of the previous Moist von Lipwig book, Going Postal. | — | ||||||
| 8/7/24 |  Unalive from Überwald (“Death and What Comes Next") | What’s got four legs, exists in a state of uncertainty, and probably contains quantum? The deathbed of a philosopher - though not for long, if a certain anthropomorphic personification has his way... Tansy Rayner Roberts and Karen J Carlisle join us live for this very special episode recorded live or dead (you’ll have to open the podcast to find out) at Nullus Anxietas IX in Adelaide, all about stories, Death and Terry Pratchett's final Death story, 2002’s “Death and What Comes Next”. | — | ||||||
| 7/7/24 |  One Step Beyond (The Long Cosmos) | We invite you to JOIN US for a great leap forward to 2070, and one final story of weird alternate evolution, sideways human cultures, another Big Dumb Object and yes, still, Joshua Valienté. Joel Martin and Deanne Sheldon-Collins take one step beyond with us into Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter’s final Long Earth novel, 2016’s The Long Cosmos. | — | ||||||
