Eeek Club 2021 (subscriber questions)

Welcome to a new tradition: the Pratchat Eeek Club! Each year, on the Glorious 25th of May, we will release a bonus episode discussing topics selected by our Eeek tier subscribers. This year, the topics are: How would Ankh-Morpork deal with COVID-19?What would happen if Granny Weatherwax was head of Unseen University - or if Angua commanded the Watch?Are golems alive? (For that matter, is fire alive?)How has Pratchett and/or the Discworld informed our personal philosophies?If Pratchett had kept writing the Discworld series, would it have evolved into science fiction?
