This week we are with Mat, who does some things we love and some things we very much do not love. We talk about birds, horses, and chemistry. The prose is so lovely that we got through two chapters in one episode!

This week we join Faile in Malden, where a variety of uncomfortable things happen, not least of which is Seth utterly shattering Aradia’s interpretation of the the three ripples.

This week we join Perrin as he meets our second-favorite Seanchan. We enjoy the bright colors of Seanchan armor, marvel at the logic of a lethal bureaucracy, and wonder about the efficacy of forkroot on various levels of channeling experience.

It’s the Darkfriend Social 2.0! You don’t want to miss Seth’s Aran’gar voice, or our revisionist history of how the Forsaken should be living and dying at this point in the story. We also question Aginor’s sexuality and compare the merits of headaches vs all other body pains.

Moving from the slopes of Dragonmount into the White Tower, we are immersed in analogy as well as an irrational love of Beonin. RJ addresses us directly via ghost, Aradia wonders about Tar Valon’s water supply, and Seth sees old corporate branding as part of Elaida’s problem.
The first 10 minutes are announcements and thanking new Patreons

Welcome back to the Wheel of Time Spoilers podcast, where we gratefully sink into the comforting familiarity of The Paragraph, compare Suian’s experiences with boats vs horses, and untangle some confusing tent arrangements.

Welcome back to the Wheel of Time Spoilers podcast, where it is time to speculate about the Oath Rod’s functions and dimensions, who is or is not in the cover scene artwork, and name salad made with iceberg lettuce. We each learn some new things, disagree about how cool Sylviana is, and consider the trope of pain tolerance as a proxy for being a moral character.

Welcome back to the Wheel of Time Spoilers podcast, where we have our first guest of 2024! Abby Goldsmith is a longtime fan of WoT, a fellow podcaster, and an author with a series of books currently coming out. We talk about the quality of Seanchan education, the material used to make the sad bracelets, and generally marvel at old recap in a new POV.

We’re finally here!!! We’re in the 4th quarter of the Wheel of Time!!!

We try to get into Galad’s head by contemplating the difference between what has to be done vs the right thing to be done. We also wonder what even is the point of Asunawa? There is some beautiful sword form poetry before the plot goes absolutely Tara-bonkers, and Editing Aradia hopes you appreciate the (relatively) succinct result.

Seth and Aradia rewatch episode six after having finished the whole season. This cast has too much talent and we are not ok. Stay tuned afterwards for a digression on the artistic value of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Seth and Aradia rewatch episode four after having finished the whole season. This episode is the sort of slower burn we’ve been aching for, though it is also the episode where we start to have more disagreement with the adaptation choices.
