S6 Episode 6 - Instinct (Carry On)

Trust your instincts! Yes, Simon, we’re talking to you! We’re reading chapters 45-53 through the theme of instinct this week.
Penny and Baz are the dream team snark duo we never knew we needed. Baz and Simon decide to try more of the magic-sharing and end up in… magical space. Agatha uninvites Simon to family Christmas, and Baz steps in with an offer, but it just causes a fight. Simon learns who Nicodemus is and immediately runs to find Baz.

S6 Episode 5 - Ideology (Carry On)

Is the Mage overly ideological, and did that lead to all our problems? We reckon so! This week we’re unpacking chapters 36-44 through the theme of ideology. 
Agatha makes it very clear that she will not be a supporting character in… whatever this is. Penelope won’t leave Watford, either, even though her family is currently being raided by the Mage’s Men. Simon tells Baz about his mother’s visitation. Baz and Simon agree to work together, and then they do – they turn a dragon away from Watford! And we finally get to hear from Lucy.

S6 Episode 4 - Control (Carry On)

Our theme is control this week but we're not showing much of it because BAZ IS BACK, BABY! Finally!
We're reading chapters 28-35 this week and find out that poor Baz is starving, because he was kidnapped by numpties. Luckily his punk auntie Fiona was there to rescue him. Simon is, of course, weirdly relieved to see him but can’t admit it, so he just gets mad instead. Baz, now that he’s back, can tell us what we’re all dying to know: how he feels about his Chosen One roommate. (He’s got it bad. We sympathise.)

S6 Episode 3 - Inheritance (Carry On)

We all inherit something, whether we want to or not. It’s easy to forget that it goes beyond material things, so it was good to keep that in mind as we reframed our thinking while reading chapters 19-27 this week.
In this section, the Mage can’t budge Simon from staying in Watford. Simon and Penny work on spells and wait for… something. Baz is still nowhere to be found, and Agatha and Simon finally, painfully break up. Simon gets a visitation from Baz’s mother, and promises to relay the message.

S6 BONUS - English Boarding School Life (Carry On)

Watford School of Magicks, and particularly Simon and Baz’s relationship to the place, is such a big part of Carry On, so we thought it was high time we got some answers to our burning boarding school questions. In this bonus ep, we interview special guest Frank about his own experience at the English boarding school Stonyhurst. We hope you appreciate getting some insight into what this experience is actually like; it was a revelation to us! And yes, we asked about the food - Simon would be proud.
Frank co-hosts the great podcast Drawn to the Flame, all about Arkham Horror: The Card Game - listen here!
