  • Dining Table Discworld - The Last Continent

    Dining Table Discworld - The Last Continent
    Jan 21 2026
    In a book described by its creator as "a bit Australian" Rincewind travels erratically through a dry, red continent. He meets a lot of people mostly trying to avoid being a saviour, aided and pursued by a shape-shifter that's usually a kangaroo. Ponder Stibbons despairs of the older wizards when the Faculty gets stuck on a mysterious island in the distant past. We discuss our own limited knowledge of Australia, why we prefer the wizards a bit more diluted and how the UU functions as a container for folk better kept away from everyone else.

  • Dining Table Discworld - Jingo

    Dining Table Discworld - Jingo
    Nov 26 2025

    Suddenly Ankh-Morpork is keen to go to war, which is bad news for those trying to keep the peace.

    Vimes chases a suspect out of his element and learns something about big crimes and little crimes.

    Meanwhile, on special assignment, Nobby gets in touch with his feminine side, and Colon hopefully learns something.

    We discuss how this book is instructive for white kids from the English countryside, how sadly it keeps being relevant, and whether you can even have jingoism without an empire.
