Author and podcaster Janina Matthewson joins us as we try to cover as much of C.S. Lewis's Narnia books as is physically possible in 53 minutes. We talk about the religious stuff, the mistreatment of Susan in The Last Battle, about how maybe The Magician’s Nephew is the best one?, about why consistent lore and geography is overrated, and lots more.

Janina is @J9andlf. She does the podcasts Within The Wires and History Is Sexy and also writes books. Her latest one is The Horses.

Alan is ⁠@alan_maguire⁠. He does a bit of standup but Juvenalia is his main thing right now.

Sarah is ⁠@griffski⁠. Her new novel Eat The Ones You Love is out April 2025. Her newsletter is at ⁠griffnotes.ghost.io⁠

Thank you to Dee McDonnell for our artwork.
