Latest revision as of 21:38, 22 November 2024
This page indexes episodes of podcasts about the Discworld or Terry Pratchett which aren’t about a specific work, and aren’t from one of the podcasts we index here. If you make a podcast and have made an episode that would fit in here, please let us know!
“Pratchett-ish” podcasts - i.e. ones with regular or frequent Pratchett-related content, but a broader focus - are listed in their own section of the Pratchett Podcasts page.
If you’re looking for podcasts on which Terry himself was a guest, see the Terry Pratchett page for the best list. (Most of them are radio programmes or live appearances later released as podcasts.)
Timestamps for episodes here will use the abbreviations “m” for minutes, “s” for seconds and “h” for hours.
Discworld episodes
These are episodes of podcasts which discuss the Discworld series or universe as a whole, or a large chunk of it, like a specific sub-series. For episodes of other podcasts about a specific Discworld book, short story or adaptation, see the page for that individual work.

Podcasts about Other Authors
These are podcasts which focus on one of the other authors we've included as "Pratchett-adjacent". Since our focus remains Pratchett, we won't be trying to make this list comprehensive.
To be added.
Footnotes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 Linked to the podcast's website
- ↑ Originally uploaded with the wrong audio, from an episode about Lesley Beringer’s Nustrian Cycle. Has since been fixed, so re-download if you had this problem.
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 Roughly translated from Spanish, “Geeklanders”.
- ↑ This episode was also cross-posted to the feeds for All the Books (soundcloud.com) and But Have You Tried (podbean.com)
- ↑ They have the reason the Mort deal failed backwards, as recounted in Terry Pratchett: A Life With Footnotes
- ↑ Roughly translated: “Why is it so expensive to be poor? The theory of Vimes’ boots”.
- ↑ The title translates to “Bread on the Board”, and it’s primarily a manga podcast.
- ↑ The title roughly translates to: Swords, Myth, Magic
- ↑ Of note, Manda claims that both Terry and Fay Weldon said they’d never played D&D before when she offered to run a game for them at separate writer’s workshops; this is unlikely to have been true for Terry, unless he meant as a player rather than as a Dungeon Master, so the story may be embellished or Terry may have feigned ignorance for fun.
