Talking Beasts: The Narnia Podcast

For you Narnia lovers out there, this is a really fun podcast. Great discussions and Narnia news.

I listened to two episodes, “darkest moments” and “biggest plot twists”. Both of these were kind of disappointing as the hosts did not seem to understand what they were discussing. On the list of “darkest moments” there was only 1 that should be considered dark. The one at the top of their list was simply a tragedy rather than a “dark” moment. This podcast feels rather thoughtless considering it is supposed to be about a world where words and their meanings matter tremendously.

I love the enthusiasm that the podcasters bring to Narnia. I can’t believe I just found this podcast, but I’ve been going through and listening to the archives— it’s so fun to think back on my own “Narnian experiences” reading the books in comparison to the podcasts. Thanks, and God bless.

I’m eighteen and about to graduate, do, when I was looking for books to read during the pandemic I wanted to read something that made me feel like a kid, so I read the Chronicles of Narnia. The Last Battle was very bittersweet for me, because it’s a happy ending, but it also meant I could not go back to Narnia. I was so excited when I found this podcast, I haven’t listened to a whole lot, but what I have listened to has made me so happy, to hear the opinions of other fans and of the actors themselves, it’s like I’m still in the wardrobe. Thank you.
