DwarfCast 111 – Book Club #1: IWCD (Part One)

Hello, and welcome to the inaugural edition of the DC/BC. For
those who are about to re-read the Red Dwarf novels at a set pace
and discuss each part with the community, we salute you. Join Ian
Symes, Jonathan Capps and Danny Stephenson as they embark on what
has already turned out to be a bigger undertaking than first
thought, as they pick the bones out of Infinity Welcomes
Careful Drivers Part One: Your Own Death,
and How to Cope With It. Was McIntyre literally carrying
his nose in a Mimas Hilton Coffee Lounge napkin? Was Bliss this
book's Chekhov's false water pistol? How many times can we make
obvious Hitchhiker's comparisons? All these questions, and more,
not actually answered in any meaningful way.


Show notes


Chinese traffic jams get close to rivalling Mimas.

Even the smallest moon in our Solar System is bigger than Red
Dwarf, so let's just say it's an asteroid that's lodged in the
side of the ship.

Danny mentions that they add a "1" each time to Holly's IQ in
White Hole in the same manner of the crew's number expanding.
This is, in fact, absolute bollocks..

in The End and IWCD (enjoy the old G&T link! We should
probably get these last few bits moved over to the new site...)
