Georgette Heyer Fans discussion

I recently discovered podcasts (very late to that party) and, on a whim, searched on Georgette Heyer in Apple podcasts. There is a relatively new podcast, hosted by two women, called--wait for it-- "The Georgette Heyer Podcast." The first episode is on The Unknown Ajax; they are up to a fourth episode (Friday's Child). I've only listened to about 15 minutes of the first one, but I thought their comments were amusing--though I had a little trouble understanding them at times. Not professionals, I would guess. Also--lots of spoilers. But I plan to return to it, and thought others might be interested!

Thank you! I'll try them as I read the books.

Thanks for the heads up!

That’s funny - I don’t do podcasts, but that could be a hoot!

Thanks, Sheila, that does sound interesting - and I love listening to podcasts.
:D

Thanks Sheila, I've been listening to a couple since you posted, they're funny and I think it's always a pleasure to hear people talk about things they love when you have a similar interest. I'd recommend reading the books first though.

I'd love to listen but I don't have Apple.

There are some GH podcasts on Spotify as well.

QNPoohBear, if you just google "The Georgette Heyer Podcast" you will find alternative ways to listen to it, no need to have Apple. The hosts names are Su and Rach. I hope you can listen!

You can listen to these podcasts her.

By the way, looking for them I have found another interesting podcast (here link): Two women that aren't fans of romance genre at all told about a few books by Heyer they have read (just for the sake of this conversation). Summarizing: although they didn't become fans of GH obviously they had great fun reading them and talking about them. Moreover, I have had fun listening to them ;-)

Thank you, Mela. I enjoyed that one, too! Interesting to hear different perspectives.

Exactly!

I am listening to The Unknown Ajax right now - really enjoying it, thank you for the link!

I liked their discussion of Friday's Child a lot (don't think I've listened to The Unknown Ajax yet). Glad you are enjoying it!

I started listening in order for some reason - currently listening to The Black Moth. Looking forward to the next one, Friday's Child, one of my favorites.

I'm listening to Friday's Child and really enjoying it. They said they heard this book was Heyer's favorite, anyone know if that's true?

It might be mine, frankly. :-)

Jackie, Jennifer Kloester says it was GH’s favorite in the thread in which she answers questions from the group (look for her answer to what is your favorite novel by GH). Maybe she discusses it in the bio.

I’m really enjoying it. Thanks for the tip

it's always been in the top 3 for me, no question. sometimes it is my favorite, sometimes my favorite is The Reluctant Widow and sometimes it's The Grand Sophy.

Just started listening to The Georgette Heyer Podcast on Google Podcasts. So funny. I'm loving it.

Lots of spoilers, with little or no alerts, so you should definitely read the books first.

Also, LOLing at their discussion of "my poor Fanny" in The Black Sheep.

I had no idea this existed! I am now totally overexcited and downloading it!

I listened to the Frederica episode not long ago and really enjoyed it.

A new season and a new episode is up!

I was happy to see a new episode pop up in my feed. It's been a year!
