Mark Steadman, Jon Hickman and Jon Bounds continue their mission to discuss everything in the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy canon, in alphabetical order. As well as the usual affair, we submit to yuletide cheer and discuss Christmas in the Hitchhiker’s universe.
Gagrakacka Mind Zones
The place Disaster Area come from. In other news, we discuss what a mind zone is.
Gail Andrews
A famous astrologer, who was berated by Tricia McMillan on TV, but who was gracious enough to come and see her, to find out why she, Tricia, was unhappy.
Galactic Eezeereed
A galaxy-wide written language. We come across it on the Golgafrincham B Ark, and it does handily solve the problem that the Babel fish can’t.
Garkbit
The waiter at Milliways, and is so unhip it’s a wonder his bum doesn’t fall off. Mark posits that Garkbit is a little stuffy for the kind of establishment that Milliways is purported to be.
Genuine People Personalities
GPP is a feature of a line of Sirius Cybernetics Corporation robots. Marvin is a personality prototype, so the panel examines the ramifications of going with a gen-1 Sirius Cybernetics product.

Read two new pieces by Jon Bounds on our blog:
Darth Vader knew my father - is Hitchhikers part of the Star Wars universe?
An essay about a liquid almost, but not quite, entirely like the best cup of tea ever

What is Beware of the Leopard: the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy podcast?
New additions to the book with the famous words "Don't Panic" on the cover. Smart and funny, fusing real-world observation with a writing style Douglas Adams fans have sorely missed.
With each topic, the panel of authors and performers present an essay in the style of a Hitchhiker's Guide entry, which is then discussed in a format that fans of BBC radio comedy know well, but with a 21st century twist.
Whether you've only read the first book, seen the film, or are completely new to the world of Arthur Dent and his friends, Beware of the Leopard will make you chuckle, and if you're a really cool frood, you'll love the team's attention to detail. And if you're new our podcast, check out our previous season in which the team discussed every known thing in Douglas Adams' sprawling universe (or the Whole Sort of General Mishmash, as it's known).
