The first Terry Pratchett-related podcast was the no longer active ''The Pratchett Podcast'' in 2011. Since Terry's death, and particularly in the last few years, several shows have appeared where the hosts read and comment on the Discworld books, usually in chronological order. This is an adaptation of the popular "TV recap" podcast format. Such podcasts are sometimes described as "fancasts".

=== Conventions for the table ===
== Good Omens Podcasts ==
* A cell in the table should be blank if the podcast has no episodes for that book.
Recap podcasts are more popular for television shows, so several popped up to discuss the first season of ''[[Film & TV:Good Omens|Good Omens]]''. None are currently active, though some may return for the second season.
* "TBA" means there is an episode for that book, but it is to be added.
* Multiple episodes for a book should be on separate lines. If the episodes are parts of the discussion of the book, number them; if they are not (e.g. if the book is revisited later), do not use numbers.
* Episode titles should be used for the links, and in quotation marks.
* For brevity, leave book titles out of episode titles. If episodes are named with only the book title, label them with the episode number only. If episodes are named with a numbering system, use that, but without quotation marks.
* Wherever possible, links for episodes should be to the podcast's website or nearest equivalent. Do not link to a specific podcasting platform - e.g. Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Spotify etc.


* '''''Welcome to the End Times''''' ([https://anchor.fm/welcome-to-the-end-times anchor.fm]) - launched March 2019. Also covered the book.

Latest revision as of 04:31, 10 February 2024

Podcasts are episodic audio programs distributed digitally, usually via an RSS feed. Most people listen to them through "podcatcher" software, and there are several directories which catalogue active podcasts.

The first Terry Pratchett-related podcast was the no longer active The Pratchett Podcast in 2011. Since Terry's death, and particularly in the last few years, several shows have appeared where the hosts read and comment on the Discworld books, usually in chronological order. This is an adaptation of the popular "TV recap" podcast format. Such podcasts are sometimes described as "fancasts".

We used to try and cross-reference podcasts and books in a large table, but it grew unwieldy. If you would like to find all the episodes about a book, or find all the podcasts indexed in one place, see our cousin wiki, the Guild of Recappers & Podcasters.

Discworld Podcasts

Podcasts below are categorised as Complete, Active or Inactive, and listed in each category in chronological order, based on launch date. Some also cover other works by Pratchett, though most only do so occasionally and are focussed on the forty-one Discworld novels, and sometimes the film and television adaptations.

Complete Podcasts

These shows have read through all forty-one Discworld books, or otherwise officially ended.

Radio Morpork

Official site: radiomorpork.wordpress.com
Launched August 2015; finished June 2021.

Irish hosts Colm and Steve (and sometimes Rose) read each Discworld book in order, creating a ranked list of their favourites and a few other lists as well. Now complete, with an episode for every Discworld book - the first of the read-through podcasts to achieve this milestone! - and a couple of extras.

The Death of Podcasts

Official site: aalgarcom
Launched November 2018; finished January 2022.

Hosted by married American couple Amanda Smith and Ron “AAlgar” Watt. Describes itself as "a comprehensive review of Terry Pratchett's Discworld series." Also on Tumblr.

Wyrd Sisters

Official site: wyrdsisters.podbean.com
Launched January 2019; finished September 2022.

A monthly Discworld re-read podcast, hosted by Americans Dani, Manning and Liz. Also has a Tumblr.

Desert Island Discworld

Official site: desertislanddiscworld.com
Launched November 2019; finished 2023.

A Discworld interview podcast. Scottish host Al Kennedy (best known for his comics podcast House to Astonish) interviews a variety of guests about their favourite Terry Pratchett book. On the 40th anniversary of Discworld, and it’s own fourth anniversary, ended after seven full seasons with a two-episode mini-season covering the last books it hadn’t already discussed, Eric (with guests from three other Pratchett podcasts) and The Shepherd's Crown (in which Marc Burrows guest hosted and interviewed Al).

Active Podcasts

These podcasts are in active production.

Pratchat

Official site: pratchatpodcast.com
Launched November 2017, released on the 7Ath of each month.

Australian hosts Elizabeth Flux (writer) and Ben McKenzie (comedian) read and discuss every Pratchett book (not just the Discworld), each with a special guest. Not following strict chronological order, and also now incorporating Pratchett's short stories. Also has a supporter only bonus podcast, Ook Club.

The Truth Shall Make Ye Fret

Official site: thetruthshallmakeyefret.com
Launched November 2019; released weekly.

A weekly Discworld podcast. Hosts Joanna Hagan-Young and Francine Carrel read, recap and discuss every Discworld book, in chronological order. Three episodes for each book with a week off in between (often filled with recaps/discussions of related media).

The Compleat Discography

Official site: compleatdiscography.page
Launched January 2020; released fortnightly, at least at launch.

“Four nerds” (later three, often with a guest) do a book club style read-through of the Discworld novels and related works, in publication order. Finished the run of all 41 novels in June 2023, but in December 2023 started a second season that is meant to cover the other Discworld books, starting with Tiffany Aching’s Guide to Being a Witch.

Who Watches the Watch

Official site: pinecast.co
Launched May 2020; released roughly monthly, with 2-3 episodes per book discussed

A collection of Terry Pratchett fans - Chaz, Lucy, Janos and George - began to re-read the Watch novels in anticipation of The Watch, planning to compare the two versions. They ended up pivoting to reading the Discworld books in order of release, with two or three episodes per book and lots of digressions. Refer to themselves as the ‘bad boys’ of Discworld podcasting, and now make many other podcasts as well, under the banner of “Good Episode Productions”. These include Immortal Incantations: Heartspell, which started as a look into self-published fiction on Amazon and became instead a chronicle of the writing and publication of their own series of young adult novels, “Immortal Incantations”.

The Disc-Course

Official site: acast.com
Launched July 2020; released fortnightly in seasons of roughly 20 episodes

American and English Discworld fans, Holly and Julie, discuss the series with two new readers, Americans Mark and Jess. Reading the books in order, but slowly - each book is covered over between two and six fortnightly episodes. As of 2022, they’ve completed two seasons taking them up to Reaper Man.

Disc Coverers

Official site: anchor.fm
Launched November 2020; released roughly monthly

Another in-order Discworld novel podcast, "reading, reviewing and objectively ranking all 41 Discworld novels, chronologically". Hosted by four trans-femmes - Iris Jay, Grace Lovelace, Balina Mahigan, and Juniper Theory - with various levels of familiarity with the books.

Unseen Academicals

Official site: sounder.fm
Launched March 2021; released roughly monthly

Originally two Australian academics, Josh and Alice, but now just Josh; he analyses the Discworld books from an academic perspective, beginning with Unseen Academicals. May feature guests in future.

Nanny Ogg's Book Club

Official site: fireside.fm
Launched September 2021; released fortnightly

A read-through of all 41 Discworld books - though not, initially, in publication order - with American Tessa (of the Monkey Off My Backlog podcast) and Irish Nigel (of Hyperfixations and other podcasts).

I've Never Read Discworld

Official site: anchor.fm
Launched September 2022; released monthly

Two Irish friends read and chat about all 41 Discworld books: "experienced wizard" P J Hart (a fan who's read them all before), and "tourist" Andy Luke (the "I" of the title).

The Turtle Reads

Launched December 2022; released monthly

Since late 2023 have stopped covering Discworld books and started on the works of other authors, including Ursula K Le Guin, Neil Gaiman and Steven King.

Inactive Podcasts

The Turtle Moves

Launched in 2008 and released sporadically until December 2014

The earliest Pratchett podcast by a large margin. A solo podcast hosted by Alex Gilmour. There's a Tumblr page for the original version at turtlemoves.tumblr.com, though only the last couple of original episodes were posted there. No longer available as the RSS feed was repurposed for Pterry Ptalk (see below).

The Pratchett Podcast

Launched October 2011; released monthly or bi-monthly for 61 episodes through to October 2018.

A sometimes monthly news, discussion and review podcast, mostly about the Discworld. Hosted by Graeme Sheridan and sometimes Rhys Parton. Most recent thirty episodes available here; the first fifteen episodes here.

Pterry Ptalk

Official site: podbean.com
Launched in February 2021; only one episode released

A re-launch of The Turtle Moves (see above) using the old RSS feed, making the earlier podcast no longer available.

Tales From the Drum

Official site: mindkindle.net
Launched April 2019; released frequently until November 2021

A roughly weekly Discworld discussion podcast. Hosted by "the Medieval Gnome", an American fantasy fan, who describes this podcast as "a portal between that fantasy world called the Discworld and Roundworld, what we call reality". Also released ten "The Portal's Pratchett Passages", bonus episodes of excerpts from the books, and more than 75 "Pratchips", 3-minute mini episodes. It changed names several times - it was originally called The Discworld Portal until September 2020, when it seems it may have been asked to change the name by the Pratchett estate. It was then briefly The Mystery Portal, then Ponder's Wizardly Portal and The Witches and Wizard's Portal until October 2021, when it adopted the final name. No longer available, aside from a few episodes on its YouTube channel.
