It was night again. And our house lay in as near silence as we ever get with four kids…
We just finished recording our very first episode of The Duke and Duchess podcast. And, I had a blast doing it. We recorded on the eve of the big nor’easter Stella’s arrival in the Mid-atlantic. When we set up the winds were brisk and cold but the ground was dry. Now as I type this the snow is sticking to the ground and the thermostat is going up.
Who are we, and what are we doing? We’re a couple who love fantasy and sci-fi. Particularly, fantasy novels. We’ve been talking for a while about starting a podcast. We finally decided to stop talking about it. Or, rather, to start talking on microphones. We love all kinds of fantasy, but we’ve decided to start with “The Name of the Wind.” The recent announcement that Lin Manuel Miranda has partnered with Patrick Rothfuss to write a screenplay for a television series is a big part of our decision to start with these books. It helps that they are great books.
One thing you’ll learn is that neither Liz…that’s the Duchess…Neither the Duchess or I are particularly saavy with technology. So, it may take us a while to get these episodes up and on a podcast service. But, that’s OK. We’re recording. We’re talking about “The Name of the Wind,” and Patrick Rothfuss’ glorious beard. We’re having fun. And we’re going to keep doing this. And one day…one day…you’ll be able to hear it too!
