I'll Be Dashed: A Wodehouse Podcast

Arts EN ↓ Epizody: 31

A podcast about the works of PG Wodehouse by a father, who has read most of the Wodehouse bibliography, and a daughter who had read none of it before the two decided to do a podcast together. We will go through all the novels and short story collections, including Jeeves, Blandings Castle, Psmith, and all the Mulliners, Bodkins, and Ukridges that you can throw a stick at, not that you should be throwing sticks. We'll discuss the stories and how they read 50-100 years later, as well as keep track of all the saving from drowning attempts, stealing a police officer's helmets, breaches of promise,...

Epizody

The Inimitable Jeeves 10.07.2023 2:15:25

We're back with another Jeeves and Wooster collection! The main theme in this one is that, while Bertie has a lot of terrible friends, the one in this one - Bingo - really takes the cake. Also, Jeeves continues to have strong opinions about Bertie's appearance, which heavily impacts the plot.

Mike and Psmith 04.06.2023 2:29:44

The follow up to Mike at Wrykyn is discussed. We are introduced to a new character at a new school, Psmith. Robyn cannot stand this character. There is less cricket in this book, but still enough to confuse Scott and Robyn. There is also, for some reason, a tangent about defending Dr. Watson from the Sherlock Holmes novels.

Mike at Wrykyn 22.04.2023 1:54:37

Mike at Wrykyn is one of Wodehouse's school novels and the first appearance of Mike Jackson. He is a totally average boy except for the fact that he is quite the Cricket player! Robyn and Scott would like to apologize profusely for not understanding the wonderful sport of Cricket. Please don't hate us for that and getting many, many things wrong.

Hot Water 18.03.2023 2:04:09

Hot Water is one of PG's standalone novels. It features many, many people on converging at a Chateau to try to steal from one of the other guests. Hijinks ensue. In this episode, we apologize profusely to the French, get distracted by Snoop Dog and bears, and really want pie. We also, you know, talk about the novel.

My Man Jeeves 19.02.2023 1:47:11

My Man Jeeves is the first collection of short stories featuring Bertie Wooster and his valet, Jeeves. The collection has four short stories with them, and four short stories featuring Reggie Pepper, who was a sort of prototype for Wooster. All stories feature different friends, who we like and/or hate to varying degrees.

Something Fresh 21.01.2023 1:06:29

Something Fresh, or Something New if you read the US version, is the first novel in the Blandings Castle Series, and we've decided to start here!
