McAnally's Pubcast
Summary: Welcome to the McAnally’s Pubcast, a podcast dedicated to the Dresden Files Universe. For the newly indoctrinated, Jim Butcher’s The Dresden Files follows the story of a professional wizard in Chicago. The first book, Storm Front, was published in 2000, and the series now boasts 17 novels, plus a combined 36 short stories, comics, and graphic novels to help flesh out the world. On top of that, the Dresden Files has also produced a television series, card games, and a TTRPG. With all of that content (and a ballpark estimate of 6 coming novels), we’ve started our Dresden Files Podcast as a way to help break down the series most important moments, characters and lore. Add theories, ramblings and outside sources, and you’ve got the number one Dresden podcast for all your interests. Find us at https://mcanallys.ca

McAnally's Pubcast - A Dresden Files Podcast Welcome to the second Dresden Files podcast episode of The McAnally’s Pubcast. Today we’re discussing the second and third chapters of Jim Butcher’s Storm Front. Storm Front Chapter 2 Summary: Harry leaves a note for his 2:00pm missing person’s appointment, then walks the few blocks from his office to the Madison Hotel to see how he can help with the police investigation. We meet Lt. Karrin Murphy, with whom Harry has worked before, and discover that a call girl and a mafia enforcer have been murdered, horribly, and by no means that could be achieved other than by magic. Harry is mortified, not simply in the humanity-of-the-situation way, but doubly-so that someone could have perverted the use of magic in this way. He relays his initial impressions and findings to Murphy and her partner, and then rushes off to make his appointment. He is stopped quickly and persuaded to accept a ride back to his office from none other than mob boss, Gentleman Johnny Marcone. Storm Front Chapter 3 Summary: On the surface, Marcone doesn’t look like an intimidating organized-crimelord, but he is just that and rules Chicago-land. Marcone wants to hire Harry to not investigate the murder at the Madison, offering Harry 2 full weeks of pay. Harry, of course, doesn’t agree to that, and in his refusal of Marcone’s offer, they lock eyes. Cue Soul Gaze. Harry initially thinks he’s getting one up on Gentleman Johnny, but after the soul gaze is complete he realizes that Marcone manipulated him and that Marcone got more out of it than Harry did. This rattles Harry. He does his best not to let it show how much it’s thrown him. Marcone backs off on his attempt to get Dresden to stay out of ‘his’ business, and Harry is dropped off outside of his office building. Now grab yourself an ale, and enjoy our Dresden Files Podcast Episode 2: Green Eyes and Broken Hearts!
McAnally's Pubcast - A Dresden Files Podcast Episode 1 - I'm a Wizard; Harry Welcome to our very first Dresden Files podcast! In this episode we introduce ourselves, discuss the book Storm Front as a whole, and delve into the first chapter of the book. We meet Harry Dresden, Wizard and Private Investigator for Hire! Storm Front Chapter 1 Summary: Here we start off the first chapter of the first book with an introduction to the titular character, Mr. Harry Dresden, himself. We meet Harry in his office building, killing time with no current case. He soon receives a call from a nervous woman looking for her missing husband. Dresden’s not sure if this if the type of situation he can help with, but makes an appointment to discuss the details further, in person. On the heels of that call, he receives another from the Chicago PD - Special Investigations division. Harry has done some work for them in the past, but this time it’s a little weightier with a double-murder having been committed.
