Pratchips 72-- The Great Pyramid
King Teppic, speaking through the high priest Dios, decrees that Teppic’s father shall be entombed in a pyramid twice the size of any other ever built. Thus the Great Pyramid is conceived.
Built in just six weeks using paracosmic architecture, the pyramid is just too big. It wrenches the kingdom of Djelibeybi 90 degrees through space-time and cuts it off from the Disc.
It’s up to the new king Teppic to use the skills he learned in the Assassins Guild in Ankh-Morkpork to set things right by… inhuming the Great Pyramid? Yikes.
Thanks for popping in for some Pratchips! We love all you guys. We love anyone who derives pleasure, enjoyment, or solace from anything we do. And we know you love your Pratchett!

Tales from the Drum
On the first, second, and third Friday of every month, it’s Tales From the Drum—the Mended Drum, that is. We also bring you three-minute long mini-episodes, cleverly entitled Pratchips (like potato chips, see?) every Monday-Thursday. All of these are (usually) about the places, spaces, races, and other words that end in aces of the Discworld, that pizza-shaped place (but no anchovies) that rides through space on the backs of the massive elephants Tubul, Berilia, Jerakeen and Great T’Phon, which themselves stand atop the 10,000 mile-long world Turtle, A’Tuin. (According to the dwarfs, there was once a Fifth Elephant, which slipped of A’Tuin’s carapace and crashed into the Disc. But the dwarfs can be funny that way.) Obviously, a place such as this could exist only every normal curve must have its outliers, where the fabric of reality is thin, and magic is an everyday—well, reality. Of course, it was actually the late Sir Terry Pratchett, OBE, who created the Discworld. He chronicled those places, spaces, etc. in 41 Discworld novels. In 500 years, he will probably be the only 20th-century author who is still being read. Seriously. He was that good. He was also incredibly prolific. In a span of 32 years, he wrote 70 books. They’ve sold northward of 50 million copies, last I saw. He was knighted in 2008 by Queen Elizabeth II. Sir Terry passed away in 2015 from a rare form of early onset Alzheimer’s disease. GNU Terry Pratchett. If you don’t understand that, you can find out about it in Going Postal. Also, il miglior fabbro. That’s from T.S. Eliot’s “The Waste Land.” But you knew that. Thanks for listening—and mind how you go! GNU Terry PratchettJoin Podchaser to...
