    Brilliant, ever since I heard on Josh Marshfelder's Vaka Rangi blog that he and Jack were guests on Pex Lives! – I have really gotten into listening to them, especially since yourself and Jane have been recent guests also. And really worth a listen, some of the best podcasting I've heard out there at the moment.

    And happily just found that as I'm subscribed to Pex Lives anyway, that the episode above just downloaded, so I'll listen to it with breakfast!

    Nailed it with your assessment of GRRM. couldn't make it past the second book but am still watching the show. Must admit to looking at how he manages to finish it in 2 books with a morbid fascination (unless A Dream Of Spring is all payoff all the time GTFOH) and am half expecting him to pull a Robert Jordan Wheel Of Time on everyone…

    Never gave who's narrating Last War In Albion much thought is it auto-narrating itself from the post-singularity world?

    I am quite interesting to see what that solarpunk story would look like.

    I meant interested. That was a very fascinating podcast, and I agree with your verdict on GRRM. I found reading the books to be something of a slog myself.

    I quit when the GoT stuff got spoilery from where I am. Enjoyed it that far; however…

    "Slightly subhuman Tolkien-lovers"

    I think it's pretty well-established at this point that you are Not A Fan, but…really.

    In which connection, the apparent implication than Tolkien fans are, numerically or culturally, a conspicuously male group seems really quite bizarre, all the more so if you take sci-fi/fantasy fandoms in general as a baseline (and overwhelmingly so if you compare with, say, the readership of this blog, if Patreon backers are anything to go by).

    Yes I listened recently to that as well and it was a real blast to hear you Jane! It's been interesting finally hearing the voices of these bloggers I have been reading for years.

    Your podcast Jane I really enjoyed, it's one of those that I will seriously go back and listen to repeatedly and share with friends who are not only interested in Doctor Who but in exploring the nuts and bolts of story. I particularly enjoyed the discussion around aesthetics, and how the term applies to Doctor Who the show appropriating different aesthetics for different stories.

    Really enjoyed the discussion Phil around V for Vendetta and Game of Thrones (well, I loved the whole thing). On the topic of metaphorically blowing things up, I used to live in Bridgwater, Somerset where they enact a yearly Carnival, or un-carnival (in the sense that it feels very un-celebratory and its clubs are pretty closed to in-comers), where they celebrate the failure of Fawkes. I lived there for two years in the town famous for its plastic factories, the town that proclaims on its welcome sign as "The Home of Carnival". In the end the festival ended up feeling like it trampled on the spirit of misrule (unlike the amazing tar barrel festivals in Ottery St. Mary nearby, or Lewes, Sussex).

    In reference to the radio show you couldn't recall the name of where Mornington Crescent comes from Phil, it's "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue", otherwise know as the antidote to panel games.

    I also am terribly interested in Phil's story. I've been vaguely writing a story around a few of the ideas that seem to be collecting as Solarpunk for a while, but this podcast was the first time I'd heard the term.

    I'd pay money for the novella as described by Phil in that Shabcast.

    my name is violet my husband is jasper i have a word to all my viewers in the world After being in relationship with jasper for seven years,he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem and who is different from all the fake ones out there. Anybody could need the help of the spell caster, his email: drakugbespellhome@gmail.com you can email him if you need his assistance in your relationship or anything. CAN NEVER STOP TALKING ABOUT YOU SIR HIS EMAIL

    I am basically writing you back to give you all of my thanks. Ever since I finished working on the first kit (Love Me Again), my results have been excellent. All I can say is YES, YES YES!! You have been a great help to me and very patient as well. That is so important. When people start working on things that are new to them, there is so much that they don't know. Especially since working on such kits you are calling on spirits for help and you don't want to make any mistakes because you're afraid that anything could go wrong if the work is not done right (such as myself) and I know that I have questioned you a lot. I can admit that I was having some doubts at first and that I was just hoping that this relationship could be helped due to all of the negativity in the relationship. Now I know that there was help and hope for us once again. You have been the best as far as love spell is concern and responding to questions in a timely manner. And I can also tell that you as the support staff are very bright and well educated people. I just wanted to leave you with this note. But mainly you. Even though I know that there are other spell caster, you have been the one that i have really seen a good result from the casting of the spell….thanks once again {Dr Royal}( Royallovespell@gmail.com )(Royallovespell@yahoo.com)or his website (http://Royallovespell.webs.com) or call him on +2349037171626,….

    I think this testimony of mine is worth sharing. My name is Andrey and I live in Canada. I lost my job in a stoke broking firm some years ago. All efforts to get a new one proved abortive and for 3 years I was feeding on my savings and for the past 1 year I have been borrowing to feed. I went to several churches and I was told that they were forces working against my getting a job which I believed but none of them could help me get out. I never believed a psychic can cast a good spell to help me get my job back as I have always been skeptical about them. I saw Dr Etiosa online and I read his article: “how to know a fake spell caster” after which he dropped his email contact DRETIOSA@YAHOO.COM. I contacted him after reading the article and lo and behold, he told me some things to do. I obeyed him with full faith and believed and it took me just 7days to get my old job back with a promotion. Now I am a floor manager in my office, thanks to Dr Etiosa. I know you all have your doubts but I assure you that contacting Dr Etiosa will make you see the difference. He is real friends, he is wonderful. He also does love spells, beauty charms, he can help you get your ex back, he does property charms and many more. I introduced my friends to him and he has proven to be reliable and genuine. His contact is DRETIOSA@YAHOO.COM. I wish you luck.

    waooo i never believe on Africa black magic spell but now
    My Name is Evee Jackson, I was married to my husband for 5 years and we were both blessed with three children, living together as one love, until 2010 when things was no longer the way it was [when he lost his job]. But when he later got a new job 5 months after, he stated sleeping outside our matrimonial home. Only for me to find out that he was having an affair with the lady that gave him the job. since that day, when i called him, he no longer pick up my calls and he refused to come back home, i tried everything i could but nothing seems to work out for good. Yet my husbands just still keep on seeing the lady. Until I met a very good friend of mine who has also had a similar problem, who introduced me to a very good love spell caster called Dr Oranitutu. But i told her that if it has to do with things that i am not interested with am not interested, but she said that it has nothing. but the only thing he asks to do was just to go and buy the items to cast the spell, and that was what she did. And she gave me the spell caster e-mail dr.oranitutu@gmail.com address and phone number+2347039075856. When i contacted him, i was so surprised when he said that if i have the faith that i will get my husband back in the nest three [3] days, and i was asked to provide some few items which i purchased. After he was done with the spell preparation he called me and told me not to worry that my husband will come back to me in a few days time and i was so shoked 3 days after the spell when my door bell rang and i opened the door only to find my husband his kneels begging me and the children for forgiveness. and ever since he has never slept tout of our matrimonial bed, THANKS Dr. This testimony is just a the price i have to pay. This man Dr Oranitutu is good and he is the author of my happiness. His e-mail address is dr.oranitutuspelltemple@outlook.com or dr.oranitutu@gmail.com or dr.oranitutu@yahoo.com OR CONTACT HIM ON THE FOLLOWING +2347039075856 for help
