The Wikicast

Wikicast 039 - Egnatius Lucillianus (with Tom Zalatnai)

This week we talk about movies where horses leave the big city to go to a small town stable. Or something.

Also we're joined by lovely Canadian and fellow podcaster Tom Zalatnai, who talk about his current fundraiser and provides some narration for an excellent fan fiction...

Our tongue twisters were...

Les chaussettes de l'archiduchesse sont-elles sèches, archi-sèches ?

(The socks of the archduchess are they dry, extra dry ?)

Un chasseur sachant chasser sans son chien est un bon chasseur.

(A hunter that can hunt without his dog is a good hunter.)

Wikicast 037 SPECIAL - List of highways numbered 221 (with Alex Lathbridge)

 

A bonus, bumper episode bursting with banter and alliteration! Apologies for the late release of this one - we had a few logistical issues recording and editing, but all in the past now. Simon and Dan are joined by Alex Lathbridge, noted scientist/comedian/weightlifter to discuss poppadoms, racism, music, books, haircuts, and highways.

Wikicast 030 SPECIAL - Wilkins Peak (with Sally Le Page)

Sally and Simon are joined by Dan for a bit. Go follow her on the twitter, sometimes she's ok. In this episode the gang talk about taste in films, mountains in Wyoming, Dan's almighty hangover, happy lesbian films, read a fan fiction, try some Welsh, and discuss how to keep on top of uni work. So we stay on topic the whole time, basically.

Note: we haven't forgotten about your correspondence RE: the racist incident at Exeter Uni! As we had a guest this week we thought we'd wait until the next episode to discuss it, so it can be given due attention. There's still time to send your emails in if you're a BME student at a UK uni - please do get in touch.
