There may not be new Outlander episodes for a while, but there’s still fresh content coming your way: A four-part thematic conversation series will launch beginning this Sunday, Aug. 23, on the Outlander Collector Facebook page in advance of the upcoming Collector’s Edition Blu-Ray release, our sister site Deadline reports.

The planned installments include “Book Corner With Diana Gabaldon and Maril Davis” (on Aug. 23), featuring a tease about the upcoming ninth book; “A Taste of Outlander” (Aug. 30), in which cast members Lauren Lyle (Marsali) and John Bell (Young Ian) learn to make a historically-inspired dish of fish and chips from Outlander Kitchen author Theresa Carle-Sanders; “The Music of Outlander” (Sept. 6), featuring composer Bear McCreary, singer Raya Yarbrough and a performance from Maria Doyle Kennedy (Aunt Jocasta); and “Catch Up With Caitriona and Sam” (Sept. 13), featuring stars Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan.

The Facebook series will also raise funds for international humanitarian aid organization Doctors Without Borders.
