This year marks the 75th anniversary of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, so Will and Mango are climbing into the wardrobe to uncover some seriously surprising stories about author C.S. Lewis. Did you know he was known for his terrible fashion… but also his financial generosity? And that he had a long, complicated frenemy-ship with fellow author J.R.R. Tolkien, which led to the two of them hating on a Disney movie together? Or that he almost converted to Hinduism for reasons that involve soup? Well, you will after this episode!
