After a long hiatus, we're back!  Roger Thomas and John Burkitt bring you their first impressions of Prince Caspian (the movie, not the book...they have 12th impression of the book).  The show is rounded out by a new Bard's Tale, "Good Luck" which is anything but! We have switched to a monthly format.  Our next podcast will be the last Saturday in each month and be released on the following day.  Yes, when we say "For Sunday..." we are saying it on Saturday.  Life is full of deception.  Get over it.  ;-)  

Christmas Day, 2007!  What better way to celebrate it than with a special Bard's Tale with music, distinctive voices and sound effects?  "Happy Day After" features the voices of Rich, Jules and Johnny LaPierre, Lynne Riday, and John Burkitt. 

Your host John Burkitt is joined by Lynne Riday, Jonathan Fletcher and Tyler Whitlatch.  The Bard's Tale story is "Death!"  

How long has it been?  Andy Filipowich (holyboy), one-time host of NarniaFansCast, appears as a panelist, as does Lynne Reiter (joytones).  Host John Burkitt (EveningStar) asks what gives The Chronicles of Narnia a spot in the 10 most re-read books in the UK, and presents a Bard's Tale story "The Lucky Coin" with Lynne helping with the female voices. 

After a hiatus, NFC is back with Episode 40!  News about Second Life Narnia is followed by a very special presentation on The Bard's Tale called "The Homecoming", voiced by John Burkitt and Lynne Reiter. 

Your host John Burkitt brings you news of Prince Caspian, plays some pre-recorded questions from fans, and introduces The Bard's Tale episode "The Brave Storm" which is a Byron on Wells story but not written by yours truly!  Roger Thomas' tribute to Bramblewood Foxworth is not to be missed.  

Torstein Maehlum (Doffen) joins host John Burkitt from Oslo.  A Bard's Tale segment features the Byron on Wells story "The Stranger". 

Torstein is back.  The news is a trifle more serious.  The conclusion of the four part "Casket of Baktar" caps off a Bard's Tale series.  Next week, we are scheduled to do another Byron on Wells story, "The Stranger". 

Host John Burkitt is joined by Torstein Maehlum of Oslo, Norway -- better known as Doffen -- for a bit of "news", a book disucssion and the third installment of the four part Bard's Tale "The Casket of Baktar". 

A thought provoking question about the Chronicles of Narnia books and Chapter 2 of 4 from our Bard's Tale presentation of The Casket of Baktar.  Roger Thomas (Prince of the West) joins host John Burkitt for a nearly hour-long show. 

We're back after a two month hiatus, and oh is it good to be here!  This is Producer John Burkitt joined by guest panelist Kelson Thomas (known as Elf of the Grey Havens on The Dancing Lawn) with news, a movie question, and the first installment of the exciting Bard's Tale miniseries "The Casket of Baktar," which is a prequel to C.S. Lewis' "The Magician's Nephew".  Penned and read by yours truly (I might be a little biased!) for your listening enjoyment. 

This is a first effort by our new Associate Producer Everett (GameGoofs2) and guests John and Torstein, and a new audio editor.  Have patience with us while we work the bugs out of our new crew and it will be worth the wait.  Sorry no Bard's tale this week but we'll be back next week with a story.

John Burkitt is joined by Everett once more as we get closer to having a full show put together with new staff.  Next week look for quality to be back to normal as our new folks adjust to their roles.

The Bard's Tale is the new original Byron on Wells story "Trouble Afoot."

This is John Burkitt, producer of NarniaFansCast.  On Episode 31 I am joined by Everett, known on Narnia Fans as "Gamegoofs".

After an admittedly brief, introductory move into using regular members of the forum as panelists, I perform "The Prize", a Byron on Wells story, on The Bards Tale.

The Easter holiday left us shorthanded, but I thought you'd really want to hear this week's Bard's Tale, so here is Episode 30 without news but still worth a listen.  Though, as author of the story, I might be a wee bit prejudiced... 

Host John Burkitt is joined by Roger Thomas (PrinceOfTheWest) to discuss a couple of book questions and a movie question.  Also, the Byron on Wells story "Discovering Names".

There is only one news story this time, but it's a real corker.  How would YOU like to own the wardrobe from Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe?  If you have a courageous heart and a deep pocket, perhaps you can!

We're back!  Host John Burkitt (EveningStar) is joined by Roger Thomas (PrinceOfTheWest) for quite a lot of movie news on Prince Caspian, a book question and an original Bard's Tale story. 

The spirit was willing but the flesh was weak.  Or at least Creative Labs' support for Windows Vista was!  That's all right, for after we recorded this truncated podcast we found a work around.  Next week things will be back to normal.

Paul Martin has some important news that is well worth hearing.  I also provide my usual Bard's Tale story, "Star's Secret World."  What's missing are the discussions.  They will be back next week without fail.

We kindly ask your indulgence, and remind you that next week all will be back to normal.

John Burkitt, Editor

Paul Martin (Specter) and Austin Fury (CSLewisFan) team up to give the news and discuss it.  A short story by Roger Thomas (PrinceOfTheWest), "Complications" is not to be missed.
