We discuss the book in a lot of depth and actually do be making some points! Did you like Rebecca as a person and do you think the book is feminist? Or is it doing the exact opposite?

The Secret History

Eeerhmm has anyone seen Mr Frog? we sure haven't! But then again has anyone seen Mr. Toad? First of all, so sorry if you have. But also, could you perhaps tell us what size he is? or is he a shape shifter? We do not know. What we do know is that we are back this month to discuss the ever confusing and controversial The Wind in the Willows!! (yeah we were surprised by it controversy too...) This month we are joined once more by Jenny who lets out her anger towards Toad while Laura and Amelia try to figure out how exactly their society works... Did we reach a conclusion? I am not sure but there's only one way to find out... Give it a listen!We'll see you again next month when we're reading The Secret History by Donna Tartt for a completely different episode probably? But then again, all of them have some chaos and laughter so who knows!!In the mean time we will try and be a bit more active over on our Instagram now that we are on our Easter break (please excuse us we are in the last two months of our uni degree during covid, the chaos and stress levels are high.Insta: @timeturnercollectiveWe are available to stream and listen to on most podcasting platforms.

The Wind in the Willows

We are joined by our first guest of the year and our wonderful friend Freya to discuss Brooklyn our book from the 00's but also simultaneously the 50's! why do we always do this!!! Anyway we discuss our love and hate for both men and italians while Amelia is convinced Eilis is a lesbian. I'd say it is very much a classic etc episode! chaos and fun and a small segment about a completely irrelevant but fascinating topic such as where the titanic left and who invented the jet engine? learn something new everyday!!Next month we will be discussing the wind in the willows with our lovely friend and returning guest jenny! See you then!In the meantime you can find us on any large podcasting streaming service as well as @timeturnercollective on instagram! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Brooklyn

Happy New Year!!!! or well? happy??? We have believe that this year is going to bring us goooood, however, this months book is arguably less optimistic. Just a TW here, this episode contains mentions of suicide and mental illness. BuT also way more optimistic sections discussing poetic writing, The Triangle of Literature, and new years resolutions!! Fun times all around! We thought I'd be very relevant to the situation we are in right now. While the world looks bleak, there is little positive notes all around us! We are going through this together and can! And, you know what, if you need some more distraction; we are reading a fun and dramatic novel next month which is very touching. It's Brooklyn by Colm Tóibín, adapted to that film with Saoirse Ronan!!Anywhoooo see you next month. Orrr in the meantime follow us on instagram @timeturnercollective.

The Martian

Bonsoir!! We are back with a nice back to school episode (kinda?). This year in uni me (Laura) and Amelia both take a children's literature module. A nice chill and short read right before the big work load hits us! We are joined by our housemate Chloe, whom you all might know from our Guernsey episode. We talk a bunch about context and culture changes and specifically growing up in general. What did Peter Pan mean to us as children? How did we perceive the problematic parts of the book. (and the film for that matter) Oh and did anyone else notice the fairy orgy? please let us know. 1910 was an interesting time i guess.Next month we will be back to discuss The Martian our most recent of all the books. The smallest jump back to the 2010's!! We will be joined by Katy, a fellow student and our pal who also likes to blog about and discuss all the literature! See u then :)Miss us?

Peter Pan ft. Chloe

GILBERT BLYTHE. that's it, that's the episode.No, okay. We discuss the rest of Anne of Green Gables and Anne with an E, including ofc the context and farm life style. We are joined by the wonderful Emma!! Our housemate but not quite housemate yet as we are not together :(Anyway, the episode is filled with finding morals, evolution of children's literature and yes, gilbert.This month is our very first decade! and next month we only move up a couple of years to discuss Peter Pan.Just basking in the bliss of our childhoods for a while I guess.If you miss us in the meantime we are on instagram! @timeturnercollective where we will be more frequently.You can also listen to us on:ACastPodcasts (Apple)ITunesGoogle Play/ Google PodcastsSee you in the past!

Anne of Green Gables

Welcome to the 1940's where we attempt to discuss Animal Farm, but mostly discuss communism and anything else that is on our mind. We consume some alcohol, say things, and don't analyse a lot. But deffo a fun one, we go a bit off the rails, in the best way possible tbh. Yes it is a bit chaotic but did you know there are animals in this?? ANIMALS?? no one told us!!! (lack of actual farms though, sure there is one but god we wanted ~cottage core~. A slightly unprepared episode as our guest was not able to join us this month, but it's fine! Were rolled with it and have opinions and wine! What more do you need really??Writing this description reminds me (Laura) a bit of when my hairdresser asked me yesterday what James Joyce's Ulysses is about. Lord knows but it's still enjoyable! (this episode more so than Joyce rambling for 800 pages straight) Anyway, we'll see you next month for actual ~cottage core~ with Anne of Green Gables. (don't think that discusses communism however??)Only one way to find out!!!Keep in touch!Insta: @timeturnercollectiveyou can find us on: Acast, google play, iTunes, and the Podcasts app.See you in the past!

Animal Farm

Not going to lie we were all a bit shocked to see Harry Potter so grown up in Kill Your Darlings, so we did some background checking and decided to discuss On The Road for the month of June! We travel back to the 50's in America and are doing by our fave sash partner: Cat. Cat brings us ALL of the inside information from her 15 y/o tumblr experiences in regards to the BEAT generation and we all discuss and rank the hotness of these now dead people? It all makes sense, just give it a listen. Besides all the chaos there are so many deep and insightful discussion regarding poverty, race, sexuality and the forming of identity. (also some random appreciation for Kpop fans!)Next month we will go full on communist going back to the 40's and discussing Animal Farm.We'll see you then!You don't have to miss us in the mean time and can follow us on insta: @timeturnercollectiveWe are available on: AcastiTunes/ Apple PodcastsGoogle PlayLeave us a comment and subscribe! We'll see you in the past! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On The Road

I am incredibly sorry for that awful pun, but I do think it is slightly ironic that we planned an end of the world book during a global pandemic... Realism is popping off, truly. Anyway, this month we are joined by the lovely Ana who has had a slight present in all of our episodes anyway! Ana normally provides us with The Studio TM, but this month we are recording from the comfort of our bedrooms, (or closets if you are Amelia). We discuss Good Omens, which we all are wildly excited about and it might even be a new favourite book!!! Buckle in for a wild ride of actually really good literary analysis! We have Themes, Characters, Context and more?? Who knew!! Such a fun and interesting episode, if I may say so myself.If you want more of us go to our instagram: @timeturnercollective OR insanityradio.com if you want some sexy sexy radio made by our own Ana!!We are available on:ITunesGoogle Play/ PodcastsACAST.comand the Apple Podcasts app See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Good Omens

This month we are joined by Daphne, Laura's sister but also our good friend!!!, to discuss Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy by John le Carré and its film! (with that we mean mostly the film as it cleared a lot up for us) We really went out of comfort zones here in reading but were very grateful for it, we loved the book! We just had the problem that we had no clue as to what was going on, but the film exists and saved us!!!! Listen to us rave about 90% of the most well known white male actors in Britain and link this all back to spies, and wait who was the spy again?? A solid quarantine episode, filled with analysis and tangents as always.Join us next month to discuss Good Omens and its TV series with our friend Ana!
