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 36: Making Money (and “A Few Words from Lord Vetinari”).

Moist Von Lipwig is bored. The Post Office is doing better than ever and the clacks companies are running smoothly and above board. What’s an ex-con man to do in these circumstances? Lord Vetinari is concerned that Moist will fall back to his old ways, so he puts him in charge of the Royal Bank of Ankh-Morpork and the Mint. Who knew making money could be so dangerous?

Our discussion also includes the speech “A Few Words from Lord Vetinari," which was written by Sir Terry and performed by Stephen Briggs to celebrate the twinning of Ankh-Morpork with the town of Wincanton in Somerset.

Tiffany is now 13–almost 14–and settling into her witch training in Lancre. She has it almost down to an art, helping her witch, the 113 year-old judge Miss Treason, and visiting Granny Weatherwax whenever she can. But one cold night, Miss Treason takes her to see a Dark Morris, the dance that summons winter. Tiffany gets caught up in the beat and joins the dance…only to attract the romantic attention of the Wintersmith, the avatar of winter. Now, Tiffany must face him or risk eternal winter on the Disc.

Rumors spread through Ankh-Morpork that a grag, a religious leader among the dwarves, has been murdered by a troll. Ancient animosities and prejudices are rising, and a repeat of Koom Valley, the legendary battle between trolls and dwarves, seems inevitable. Can Vimes and the Watch solve one of the biggest crimes of all?
