We pare down to the core group for one last trip across the Disc, and Ana and Aaron finally read The Shepherd's Crown. Project wrap-up content starts at around 51:30, although it does continue to include Shepherd's Crown content.

Thanks to our many guests, but especially to you, our listeners. We would have done it regardless, but we hope that we inspired you to read or re-read Sir Terry's works, and we hope that you thought about things from a new angle.

We're not done quite yet, so don't delete this feed. More surprises coming soon.

Mind how you go.

GNU Terry Pratchett.

Steam power comes to the Disc, whether or not the Disc is ready for it. This book, which lays track (ha ha) for many changes in and around Ankh-Morpork, unfortunately instead became a farewell to many beloved characters. We discuss the book, the implications of the railway system, and a little bit of our wishlist for what might have happened... if...

We are joined by RPG designer Jennifer Adcock, who is, among other things, the designer of the GMless game The Price of Coal. She can be found on twitter at @jenkatwrites. and elsewhere if you're lucky.

Additionally, if you're not ready to read The Shepherd's Crown yet, mind how you go.

According to the writer of the best selling crime novel ever to have been published in the city of Ankh-Morpork, it is a truth universally acknowledged that a policeman taking a holiday would barely have had time to open his suitcase before he finds his first corpse.

We are joined to discuss Snuff by Angry Staff Officer (either a nom de plume or nom de guerre, we're not sure which). Angry Staff Officer is an on-again, off-again angry staff officer, who made the odd jump from enlisted infantry to engineer officer and is now meandering the warrens of Army doctrine, one dog-eared page at a time. Most often focused on historical events, national security, and occasional rants on Army doctrine. He can be found being cynical and jaded at the Twitter handle @pptsapper and writing at Point of Decision, as well as on Facebook and Instagram. He is a proud member of the Military Writers Guild, winning the Military Writer’s Guild award for most active member in 2015. His other key accomplishments include an intimate knowledge of far too many gins to be healthy, and having once live-tweeted the entire Star Wars saga.

This is a story about football. This is not a story about football. It can be both.

We return to Ankh-Morpork for the coda to the Dwarf Cultural Revolution, the continuation of Vetinari's modernization efforts, and a deep exploration of prejudice and racism. And also some footie.

And we are deeply honored to be joined this month by Rob Wilkins. Rob Wilkins worked with Terry Pratchett for over twenty years, first as his assistant, and later business manager. He now manages the Pratchett estate and Terry's production company, Narrativia. He can be found on Twitter managing the account he and Terry shared @terryandrob, if he's not too busy promoting the works of Sir Terry in various media or overseeing the next season of Good Omens. And if you haven't picked up a copy of Terry Pratchett: A Life with Footnotes: The Official Biography, please do.

What happens when you give the keys to the royal mint to a conman with a heart (and a suit) of gold? It's time to find out in Making Money, the 36th book in the Discworld series.

We are joined by two guests this month!

Dr. Holland Dougherty (@dochollandd) is a research scientist for CSIRO's future protein mission. Originally from south Florida, she now lives in Australia where she uses her love of biology and statistics to model sustainable agriculture and make the food we eat not just better in quality, but better for the planet. Besides her role as a professional cowologist/sheeponomist she enjoys knitting, hiking, nerding out about comic books, and consuming copious amounts of caffeine.

Rich Howard is a writer, podcaster, and game designer with a passion for all things superhero and aquatic. He is the concept lead for the RPG “Descent into Midnight”, co-creator and co-host of Whelmed: The Young Justice Files, and can be found guesting on gaming, pop culture, and science podcasts across the internet.

Intro Music is "The Dark Morris Song" by Steeleye Span in collaboration with Sir Terry Pratchett, and is used in the hope that they don't sue us because their music rocks--and everyone should go listen to their full Wintersmith album a few times and maybe buy a copy or two.

We were bored and decided to get together to talk about what we'd done this year but had not yet made content about. Some content snuck in. Sorry. You should feel no obligation to listen to this whatsoever.
