Behold Thrust, Pip! – Ep. 42 In which we seek some answers, veer into the third person, consider triangles, and put forth the faux-Dickensian instruction to Behold Thrust, Pip! === Buckle up, we’re gonna do a fast one: If the player doesn’t show, here’s a direct download mp3 link. === Follow us on the Fediverse (Mastodon). Search for **`@offgridpod@offgrid.tlmb.net`** The featured crossword puzzle is by Gaff. The Fifteen Squared blog for it is here.

His latest blog puzzle is here. ======= ## **Spoilers** and links below the pic… – Is it too late to say we’re sorry to this guy? – Void should perhaps try to be not so Frank. – You’re not forced to remember these. – Three points of interest? – Is this the favourite knot of this chap? – The Castle in question can be confirmed – Behold these places in Cornwall, Greece, Rome and Verona. – The writer, and his play. – Fancy some sausages? Or a Snickers? We’ll fight you for them! – No, not the writer of Dangermouse’s theme tune, nor the singer of the beetroot song… – …but rather “the North Country Noël Coward”. – Dale will teach you another way to count. – How big is yours? – The answer to one question posed in this episode is “~0.00019”. We couldn’t find a precise enough definition to answer the other, similar question, but you should probably… – …get your spears here. – Are you apparently bright enough to be absolutely sure of your definition? – The answer to another question posed in this episode is Kochab. **The Trudy** once reminded us to fasten our seat belts.

Just remembered I still have the latest #OffGridPod to listen to, albeit 11 days late. Fortunately, they're not time sensitive, so if you're a wordy/trivia-loving/quizzy/crosswordy type who's late to the party then you have 68 wonderful episodes waiting for you...

Greek, the Asian and African Language Just as the borders of Europe are geographically, politically and socially fuzzy, so too are its linguistic edges. Whatever lines of demarcation we care to draw, the many flavours of speech to be heard in Europe flow over those lines like the air of which they’re made. Consequently, a label like ‘a European language’ isContinue reading "Greek, the Asian and African Language"

Just a quick reminder that the #OffGridPod compilation clip show is out. If you enjoy words, trivia, crosswords, quizzes, eclectica, et cetera, then there's bound to be something to divert, fascinate or titillate you.

oh and I’m *pretty* sure I’m allowed to say now that I *might* have also been on an episode of #OffGridPod. Unconfirmed but quite likely that it happened

and if it DID happen then that was also a highlight of the year so thanks @skirwingle.bsky.social / @thevoidtlmb.social.vivaldi.net.ap.brid.gy
