SEASON 11 EPISODE 3: VULNERABILITY

This week, we’re reading chapters 20-28 of Any Way The Wind Blows by Rainbow Rowell through the theme of vulnerability.

In this section, Simon is weathering his vulnerability hangover and Baz has to explain all the dodgy Chosen One things going on. Penny decides she’s too much of a mess to help Shepard and tries to send him home, but she just can’t quite let him go. Agatha helps Naimh with a task at Watford… and she has surprising success with magicking goats. Simon and Baz visit Lady Ruth and learn more about Jamie, her missing son.

This is the final part of the Carry On Trilogy - you can check out season 6 for Carry On and season 9 for Wayward Son.

This episode was recorded on 5 August 2023.
