WoT Spoilers

The episode starts with puns, be warned. Piles of hints dig into our brains, while Egwene ignores most of what is going on in hers. The Pattern is headdesking so much with all of these prophecy dreams that our characters don’t take seriously. Aradia annotates the book, but has no idea where any of the WoT rivers are. We awkwardly discuss the mechanics of dream romance and the importance of Gawyn a...

Seth is joined by a new guest, SuperSkyLake from the Discord server! They nerd out on audio production in addition to the vagueness of prophecies.  Egwene explores the space between dreams, considers who all is sneaking around in Tel’aran’rhiod with her, and has a fateful encounter with Gawyn that raises questions (and eyebrows). Salidar wakes up to a bubble of evil, so we explore some of the mech...

Blood and bloody buttered onions, SpoilerCon is really soon! Check out the schedule at www.spoilercon.org/schedule . This episode was published on the 13th anniversary of Robert Jordan’s death, and we appreciate that he wrote never-ending fractals of details into his world-building. That’s part of why we keep coming back for more and more rereads!  Theodrin and Nyneave have fun with a bucket of wa...

Seth and Travis wait anxiously with Nyneave and Elayne in Salidar, as the little Hall stalls for time with the Tower emissary, as they wait for “the biddable child” to arrive. Travis points out that if you cut a hole in a net, you have fewer holes in the net. Thanks, we hate it. The Spider crawls inside Nyneave’s head and disturbs her equilibrium. Even if she is a captured coward, she is still a c...

Seth and Aradia watch as Verin and Alanna deal with the fallout of Alanna’s impulsive non-consensual bonding, and contemplate if the tradeoffs that she forced on Rand justify her actions. We get a rare and information-rich Verin POV, including a rare instance of Verin being wrong about something!  Aradia grumbles about the trope of people fainting from fear, and Seth gets schooled by a Discordian ...

Seth and Travis discuss an infamous, dark, and complicated moment in Rand’s journey, when Alanna becomes much more than just another Aes Sedai. The chapter accelerates really quickly, and by the end you see hints of Darth Rand coming through. Content warning for discussions of assault.  Death is lighter than a feather, duty is heavier than a mountain – and Rand feels that he is being beaten to dea...

WoTSpoilers returns to regular content! It is not the beginning, but it is A beginning. Seth unveils the new co-host plan, re-introduces Aradia, teases SpoilerCon, and tackles his first read-in. Robert Jordan was a master of anticipation and red herrings, particularly in this book.  In Amador, Abdel Omerna gets his news from the Randland equivalent of Facebook memes, while Sebban Balwer knows bett...

Excitement about the WoT TV show has led to massive growth in the fandom and listenership, to the delight of all of us who have been enjoying the series alone for years.

In how many ways is the royal house of Andor needed for the Last Battle, and how many times does Elida misi...

An irascible old farmer named Hu discovered one morning that his best rooster had flown into a tall tree beside his farm pond and wouldn't come down, so he went to his neighbor, Wil, and asked for help. The men had never gotten along, but Wil finally agreed, so the two men went to the pond and began climbing the tree, Hu first. They meant to frighten the rooster out, you see, but the bird only kep...

Rand weaves a gateway to his “Farm” which we learn is where he's been depositing the male volunteers to be tested for any ability to channel.

Leaving Bashere in charge of his collection of Seals, plus the newly acquired one which was a gift from Taim, Rand takes Taim to his new 'Farm'.   WoTSp...
