'Legends are prone to inflation.'

Junior Private Andy Luke and P.J. 'Twelve Tours' Hart join The Watch for a tale of political espionage and warfare all across the Circle Sea to Klatch. We come in heavy on the politics with the story of how Elon Musk triggered a war over the island state of Lehsp. Then its onto our winning blend of story analysis, sombre modern themes and wildly useless tangents. Bingly-bingly beep!

"HO HO HO." PJ and Andy meet to celebrate Hogswatch with gerbils, eggnog, and a fine festive Pratchett, with more mergings of sociology and fantasy. Albert and Death have frank discussions about childhood and income inequality amongst celebrations on fiction and belief, as f-frightening Teatime stalks the disc.

"In weather like this right-thinking people were indoors, in front of the fire, telling stories about heroes."

Aged barbarian Cohen plans to kill a troll in single combat. Instead they find themselves reminiscing about how the Discworld used to be. Andy and PJ harvest PTerry's short story for themes and subtext before casting an eye over Snowgum Films' marvellous 2019 adaptation. There's also a contribution from Arsalan Haider Ali, who has never read Discworld.
