    246: Buenos presagios

    Buenos presagios (Good Omens , 1990) de Terry Pratchett y Neil Gaiman es una novela cómica que nos presenta la historia de un inminente apocalipsis. El anticristo ha nacido en una pequeña ciudad de Inglaterra, lo cual marca el inicio del fin del mundo. Sin embargo, un demonio y un ángel le han agarrado cariño a la humanidad y harán lo posible para evitar que sea destruida en la batalla definitiva entre el cielo y el infierno.

    KPS079: Good Omens

    KPS079: Good Omens
    „Everyday, it's a-gettin' closer – Goin' faster than a roller coaster – Love like yours will surely come my way – A-hey, a-hey, hey” Bachelorarbeiten sind geschrieben, Hochzeitsfeiern sind gefeiert, Kultpess-Betriebsausflüge sind geausflugt, kurz: Es gibt keine Gründe mehr, die Kultpess-Pause zu verlängern. Und so sind wir in der schwülen Hitze eines Augustwochenendes wieder in unseren Studios zusammengekommen, um über eine Serienstaffel zu sprechen, die aktuell die Gemüter der Fancommunities in diesem Internet erhitzt: „Good Omens”, die Hitserie von Neil Gaiman mit David Tennant und Michael Sheen, ist wieder da und das mit einem relativ großen Knall. Wie funktioniert das, wo doch die literarische Vorlage schon mit Staffel 1 abgefrühstückt war? Wie wirkt sich das typische gailman'sche Abschweifungserzählen auf den Sehgenuss aus? Und vor allem: Wie wird die Beziehung zwischen dem zynisch-chaotischen Dämon und dem gutgläubig-traditionalistischen Engel konstruiert? Das und viel mehr erfahrt ihr in dieser Episode!

    Unterwegs mit... Bastian Pastewka

    Unterwegs mit... Bastian Pastewka

    Zum Auftakt der 3. Staffel begleitet unser brandneuer Host Sebastian E. Merget Comedian Bastian Pastewka auf dem Weg von Essen nach Hamburg. Bastian Pastewka ist unterwegs zur Kinopremiere seines neuen Films „Maurice Der Kater“, dessen Titelhelden er seine Stimme leiht. Der Animationsfilm basiert auf einem Roman von Kultautor Terry Pratchett, und sei daher „nicht so kitschig“ wie ein Disney-Film, wie Bastian begeistert erzählt. Am wichtigsten sei ihm – Überraschung – der Humor. Wie war es denn, einen betrügerischen Kater mit schwarzem Humor zu spielen? Kann eine synchronisierte Version jemals so gut sein wie das Original? Guckt er privat lieber Originalversion mit Untertiteln oder synchronisiert?

    Im Verlauf der Fahrt stellt sich schnell heraus, dass sich hier zwei Serien- und Hörspieljunkies gesucht und gefunden haben. Nun ist es an Host Sebastian, das Rätsel um Bastian Pastewkas Lieblingsschokoriegel zu lösen. Wer aufmerksam zuhört, kann die Lösung ebenfalls herausfinden!

    Außerdem verrät Pastewka, warum er am liebsten im Ensemble spielt, was seine derzeitige Lieblingsserie ist und warum er findet, dass man Fehler erstmal bei sich selbst anstatt bei anderen suchen sollte.

    Ein sprudelndes Gespräch über Walkie-Talkies, Episodentitel, „Drei Fragezeichen“ und darüber, warum „Kein Mucks“ nicht nur eine berechtigte Aufforderung, sondern auch ein Herzensprojekt von Bastian Pastewka ist.


    „Maurice Der Kater“ läuft ab 9. Februar 2023 im Kino

    Episode 16 : la Huitième Couleur

    Dans ce 16ème épisode, nous avons invité 3 membres du podcast Le Mythe de la Taverne, Camille, Sam et Steve, à venir discuter avec nous du livre de Terry Pratchett, la Huitième Couleur. Où comment cet univers de fantasy burlesque nous a divisé !


    Pour le point press, Charlotte essaie l'application Cafeyn.


    Et en bref, nous parlerons du Sang des 7 Rois de Régis Goddyn, de Crescent City de Sarah J. Maas, de La Lune et les Sabots de Huguette Bouchardeau et de Lore Olympus Vol. 2 de Rachel Smythe.


    Et comme Steve aime nous lancer des débats inopinément, nous aborderons la thématique du rayon jeunesse en librairie et du prix des livres.


    Une très bonne écoute.


    EP 35: Gaspode the Wonder Dog - from Terry Pratchett's Discworld

    EP 35: Gaspode the Wonder Dog - from Terry Pratchett's Discworld

    We dive into the Discworld and consider Gaspode, the cynical ball of stench and disease or as he would put it "Mans best friend, et cetera, et cetera. Give the little doggie a biscuit. Homo-Sapiens! You can keep 'em."

    • We talk about Greyfriars Bobby, the inspiration behind Gaspode.
    • We remember the good/bad old days of London, that Pratchett parodies with Ankh Morpork, where indoor toilets were mistrusted and putting your cape down on the sidewalk for a lady meant you'd need to burn it afterwards.
    • George digs into London's "great stink" of the 1850's - where so many corpses were piled up, the smell literally killed people.
    • Would Gaspode make the idea literary agent?

    Episode 20: Hogfather

    Episode 20: Hogfather
    Welcome to Nanny Ogg's Book Club: A Discworld Podcast! Join us as we read through all 41 of the fantastical and outrageous Discworld novels! This is Episode 20: Hogfather. When the auditors conspire to assassinate the Hogfather, on Hogswatch eve no less, it is up to Death to step into his boots and deliver presents to all the children on the Disc. But with all the spare belief left over from the Hogfather's disappearance, new household gods are popping up and things are getting a little weird. Its going to require the talents of Death's granddaughter Susan, a team of wizards, an oh god, a rat, and a raven to figure out what happened to the Hogfather and save Hogswatch!

    X, Squared (an audio novel) - Chapter 2

    We meet Mitsuko and Hemmingway, two FIB agents, in a chapter that might seem suspiciously familiar if you’ve listened to the Catch-Up Episode 0. 

    X, Squared - the latest audiobook novel by Daniel’s Nemesis, follows nervous young wreck Crunchy as he begins work experience at the mysterious organisation The FIB. Things soon decline into a world inspired by German Expressionism and early 2000s Japanese Horror movies. 

    It’s a hoot!

    (Please forgive the poor accents!)

    There are separate episodes where I give analysis and discussion about the chapters. Check out the feed for those catch-up episodes. One has already been released to explain the origins of the novel.
