Episode 126 – Dances With Ravens

Jen

Happy Sunday, Clovers!

In this episode, we are discussing Ch. 11 & 12 of The Black Bird Oracle by Deborah Harkness. At the top of the episode, we retread a discussion of retcons in fiction (because it has been a while!), characterization, main characters, pacing, and preliminary plot thoughts as we are approximately 1/2 way through the book. I know!

During our chapter discussion, we’re talking about conflict, surprises, climaxes (?), marital strife, and a very confusing night time adventure in the woods.

We look forward to talking with you next time, a point at which we also the hope that the book will have a more even keel.

Episode 120 – Endings, Beginnings, Change

Dearest Clovers,

Today is a bittersweet day. In this episode, we’re announcing our hiatus from podcasting. Both of us are about to embark upon major life changes and, 120 episodes and five years later, we think it’s appropriate to give C&C an intermission.

We hope to answer your questions in the episode, but here’s a summary: we’re planning a possible return if and when there’s new material, but, for now, this seems like the best choice. Our episodes will remain on our website and on iTunes and Spotify and wherever you listen. We plan to use whatever support we continue to receive through Patreon to pay those costs, but we completely understand if now is not the time for you to remain a patron. We’ve been so lucky to have you.

It’s nearly impossible to put into words what a joy this project has been and how proud we are of all we have accomplished. It’s not perfect, but it has always been a delight. Thank you for your kindness, your support, your warmth, your good humor, your deep thinking, and your immense love of the All Souls Trilogy.

Honor and long life to all,

Happy Sunday Clovers!

Well, well, well, here we are with our penultimate discussion of A Discovery of Witches and the All Souls Universe. It’s been quite the journey. We have so loved discussing this TV show with you all, and we know that it will continue to provide joy and delight for many years of re-watches to come.

In this episode we’re back on the trail of the great plot caper! That’s right, team spreadsheet has reunited to bring you the ultimate plot discussion for A Discovery of Witches TV. Cait has tied in this plot discussion to the spreadsheets created for Episode 72 of the podcast (that’s the one for the book trilogy plot discussion). In addition to diving into plots one more time, we are also discussing our ultimate favorites for the TV series: music, costumes, episodes, characters, scenes, and more.

Episode 118 – A Discovery of Witches TV Series Wrap I – Themelettes

Jen
A Discovery of Witches TV

Happy Sunday Clovers!

We hope that this episode finds you well.

We are so pleased to be here to begin our discussion of the entirety of the TV series A Discovery of Witches. The moment when we saw the series premiere of the series at All Souls Con in 2018 seems both past and present as we end this television journey. Surely some of you can relate to this feeling.

For this episode we are discussing characters and their relationships throughout he series, series-wide themes, and the adaptation and production as a whole. Deepest apologies for the background noise, particularly in Jen’s audio. There was a heat wave and it was sweltering in her office so the window had to be open in order to avoid syncope. It has been edited out as much as possible.
