GormenCast returns! Come with us on an intensely confusing journey through the castle’s twisted halls, as we lose our minds over part 1 of Gormenghast! thetruthshallmakeyefret.com/category/epi...

First recording in a few months last night, please enjoy us trying to remember how to podcast (The episode didn’t go uphill from here - GormenCast arrives tomorrow!)

We’re back in less than a week! Gormenghast part 1 - chapters 1-39 comes out on Monday. Let’s wander some crumbling edifices!

Apropos of nothing (and certainly not a trailer dropping) quick reminder that Terry Pratchett was fucking great, and consuming media made by bigots is a shit thing to do! Also last year we did an episode about Gender on the Discworld with lovely messages of trans inclusion from some great people.

Discussing Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil with @2hatsjo.bsky.social has already lead to multiple tangents. (Bloody good book, though, you’re going to want to read it on launch day.)

ICYMI: Some wonderful members of the Discworld family popped up in our “Gender on the Discworld episode” to share the love for our trans community (and get us a bit weepy): youtu.be/d5RJou166jM?...

April Fools! Alright, we’re not actually becoming a full-time Gormenghast podcast. Life is simply too short. BUT, we will be covering the first book in the trilogy (Titus Grown) this very month! And there’s plenty of delights in store for the rest of the year.

We’re finally back and embarking on a brand new journey! Announcing GORMENCAST, in which we’ll be reading and recapping every book in Mervyn Peake’s Gormenghast trilogy, a chapter at a time. We can’t wait to wander this sprawling castle with you!
