| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone. Today is a bonus episode. |
| 0:04.0 | And we're actually going to be taking a two-week break from Perilendra, and that's actually for a few different reasons. |
| 0:10.0 | Firstly, if you're one of the people that had intended to read along with us through this book, |
| 0:16.0 | but you didn't get started in time and you're falling behind and you're thinking of just abandoning it entirely, |
| 0:21.6 | you now have two weeks to catch up. And the second reason we're doing this is the real reason, |
| 0:27.7 | namely that we have recorded two more episodes, but they're not yet ready to publish, |
| 0:31.9 | so we need to wait a little bit. But that's actually very fortuitous, because I've been meaning for quite some |
| 0:38.3 | time to be advertising a certain event that's going to be coming up later this month. It's going to be on |
| 0:43.9 | November 29th, which is, of course, C.S. Lewis's birthday. For those of you who don't know, |
| 0:49.8 | last year we inaugurated C.S. Lewis Reading Day on November 29th, and we celebrated Jack's |
| 0:56.0 | 125th birthday. |
| 0:58.0 | And CS Lewis Reading Day was very much modelled after Tolkien Reading Day. |
| 1:03.0 | Podcasters, YouTubers, bloggers, they all produce special content to celebrate the day, |
| 1:09.0 | and we were encouraging everyone on social media to post |
| 1:12.5 | some of their favourite C.S. Lewis quotations, and we produced a massive gallery of quotation |
| 1:17.7 | graphics for people to share. The idea was to raise awareness of C.S. Lewis and encourage more |
| 1:22.9 | people to read him, and those who have read him before, to read him more. And the celebrations culminated in two |
| 1:28.8 | live streams. They were celebrated on the evening of November 29th, one on East Coast time, another on |
| 1:35.2 | West Coast time. And we were joined by fellow C.S. Lewis creators. And so what you're about to hear |
| 1:42.3 | is the audio from the first of those live streams, the East Coast live stream. |
| 1:46.0 | We were joined by the hosts of the Lamppost listener, barrel aged faith, Law Haven, Men with Chests, The Inklings Variety Hour, Lesson-Lewis, and Bob Trexler from the New York CS Lewis Society. |
| 1:58.0 | We'll be doing something very similar again this year, inviting on |
