Daemons Discuss - Podcast: Take 78! | Chapter Discussion about the All Souls Trilogy; Chapter 10 of The Book of Life

Poor Sarah! 😞

Take 78 - The One With the Enchanted Radio

Description: To put it simply, we LOVE this chapter. This is the first time we get a glimpse of Sarah and Diana actually working together on magic. It was all so peaceful until the radio decided to suggest a playlist familiar to most of us born prior to 1985, and -- now -- GenZ, who through TikTok have found an entirely new catalog of music to explore. Enjoy the episode, guys!

SPOILER ALERT! We (The Daemons) approach this podcast with an assumption that the listener has read All Souls universe books, including the trilogy (A Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night, The Book of Life), and  Time's Convert + snippits from The World of All Souls. If you haven't, and you don't mind, we certainly don't mind!  Please be advised, we will approach the television series (A Discovery of Witches) the same way as episodes are released in the US/Canada. 😊  Let's do this. *Note - this podcast is labeled 'explicit'

Topic
Chapter 10, The Book of Life 

  • We discuss why we actually enjoy this chapter.
  • We psychoanalyze Sarah a bit more in this chapter! πŸ˜‚
  • Why was the house quiet the night before? Was the Goddess’ presence chill the house out?
  • We finally see Sarah at work, and how serious she is about her craft.
  • Pregnant women don’t touch rue!
  • Diana is like us, rather ignorant about these plants!🌿
  • Sarah’s garden seemed magnificent
  • The Daemons need the “teaching garden!”
  • “Companionable silence” — a change between these two. What a relief!
  • We suspect Corra and Sarah are more alike than they each think!
  • Diana chooses the ingredients via her fingers . . . we wonder how much her intuition seeps into her actual knowledge?
  • The five beans in Jean’s opinion tended to avoid the Princess and the Pea effect.
  • Gramerye in our view …
  • We talk about the little recipe tricks that could translate to magic.
  • Diana shows Sarah a spell she wrote out. Sarah is rather kind.
  • The twine helped with the demonstration.
  • Sarah tries Diana’s spell . . . whoops πŸš’
  • Sarah gets excited with Diana’s ability to see inside of spells!
  • Diana creates….and destroys spells! ☠️
  • Hey Spell, what’s wrong?
  • UMO = Unfamiliar Magical Object
  • Diana has an urge to conduct dark magic, but doesn’t want to admit it. Sarah helps her through it.
  • Rebecca’s things . . . including an old clock radio! πŸŽΆπŸ“»
  • Poor Sarah! Torture via Fleetwood Mac! Actually…we can think of worse!
  • Sarah gone wild! Thunder! Clear the air! Meanwhile, Diana: "hmmm let me work on this spell..."
  • Matthew shows up, and love is in the air, so is “you make loving fun” πŸ’•
  • Fernando is to be on the ready for an epic rescue armed with a cigarette, and some booze…in five minutes or until the music stops, STAT! πŸš‘
  • Diana makes a nice respectable spell. Maybe the music helped!
  • STEPHEN!
  • FIN
We imagine Sarah's garden as lush and magnificent!

* Our episode titles are a loving tribute to the show "Friends" just 'cause we love Friends and - let's face it - it's easier! Here's how one of the show creators explains their reasoning:
Jeff Greenstein: "When Marta & David & Jeff & I did 'Dream On', we used to spend a lot of time thinking about titles, because they were on-screen at the top of each episode. On "Friends", we decided that was a waste of time. We figured, why not name each episode after the thing that people will ostensibly be talking about around the water-cooler the next day?"
