In celebration of our 1st anniversary, only the finest literature would do. Join us as we read Chained to Krampus, featuring surprisingly little bondage and far too much weirdness. CONTENT WARNING: Chained to Krampus is smut. We're talking about smut. Check for more specific CWs if that worries you (it should). Don't listen in public... or do, I'm not your dad. For those of you listening in real-t...

Thanks junderstruck for letting us know and for shame the 20~ people who listened to the episo...

We wrap everything up for the Grace Year. We count the dead, add some to their number, learn the truth of Tierney's dreams, find out whether the dove survives, and wonder if Tierney does. Our mid-ep schedule is a bit wonky because I think I misread it, but we'll be back with the Grace Year bonus (for the Patrons) on January 7th, and finally with part 1 of Tress of the Emerald Sea on the 14th. See...

The weather warms and the sun's out. It's Spring! Tierney benefits from several deus ex machinas (latin plural needed) and stares at a naked man. The numbers come in, and they're pretty bad. It's a shorter one, folks. Next time: The Grace Year Ends. Tierney becomes a tree (jk jk... unless?) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We've arrived at the Grace Year encampment, where there is no grace (presumably, not all the girls are named). There's a lot of bodies, creepiness, magic, and maggots. Yum yum yum. Also featuring: a boy and maybe less fun opium . Audio Note: Markus's audio will be robotic at a couple tiny parts, because of wifi-related audio issues. It should go back to normal afterwards. Join us in two weeks for...

We follow the continued adventures of Brutha and his one-eyed tortoise god, Om. Vorbis continues to be cartoonishly evil, Om makes a deal for Brutha's life, and Brutha meets the demonized Ephebians and their philosophers. Said demon philosophers spend surprising amounts of time being naked in the streets and drunkenly arguing with each other. Brutha questions a lot about how he was raised. The Omn...

Ponder the tortoise and the eagle with us as we glaze Prachett's humor and prose for a couple hours.

If you listened to this episode the day it came out, there was an audio gaffe from 5:50 to 6:20 in the original cut. It has since been fixed. Sorry bout that. A storm's truly a brewin' in A Study in Drowning. Preston and Effy find some naughty pictures, talk about their traumas, go on a road trip, commit grand theft clothing, and Effy has a crisis of faith. (Markus was out of his house when record...

Our swim through the Bottom Hundred continues! We learn some hard truths about Preston, have a goofy study date in the pub, find some incriminating writing, talk literary analysis, have a terrifying lunch at the pub, find a secret room, and watch internalized misogyny go brrr. Next week, we release an August bonus episode for our Patrons. In two weeks, we'll be back with chapters 9-13 in A Study i...

(content warning for a Study in Drowning and eps covering it: Sexual assault, misogyny, xenophobia) We begin as all episodes do, with the audio getting fucked up and us having to re-record the episode us yammering on for a silly amount of time about what will probably be nothing. Welcome to our coverage of a Study in Drowning! We switch hats, with Sarah knowing what's going on the whole time and M...
