WoT Spoilers

We got a season 3 trailer!!! But Seth is so distracted by buying a house that we move on fairly quickly. Egwene gives a piece of advice that Aradia genuinely holds onto in times of doubt, Aviendha has imposter syndrome so bad it feels like a callout, and we agree that while Sanderson might be an apple to RJ’s onion he also does understand the central thesis about the difference between hardness an...

Seth turns 43, Aradia has the Christmas tree up already, and the wind of the opening paragraph gets hit with a bubble of evil as it heads towards Rand at peak burnout. We see Sanderson laying out his priorities for the book and his writing in the narrative choices in the chapter, and get adjusted to seeing the characters through his eyes.  Support medical aid for Palestinians https://www.map.org.u...

WoTSpoilers returns to the second half of the prologue of the first Sanderson book, where Forsaken are frolicking and Aradia is defending their very relatable decisions. We also get to see Domani and Seanchan armies that feel out of scale, and witness the redemption of Faile.  Oregon Humane Society: https://www.oregonhumane.org/donate/memorial-celebration-gifts/   Support medical aid for Palestini...

WoTSpoilers returns with a new season, a new book, and of course a new author of that book. That’s right, the Sanderson Era begins now, and with it our final trilogy of books in this podcast project. The land is one with the Dragon, and the land is ready to fight back. We cover the first three of six POVs in the prologue; this week is Renald Fanwar, Falendre the sul’dam, and Tylee Khirgan. But fir...

Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where Aradia and returning guest Steve are reviewing the last 10 months of episodes and our lives. Get a pen and paper ready because there are a LOT of book, show, music, and movie recommendations in this episode.   WOTS will be on break for a number of weeks until we are ready to start on The Gathering Storm.

Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where we are doing our last (non-prequel) Robert Jordan episode. We ponder the most important questions, like “which Forsaken is the kindest to animals” and “where did that army of 200,000 people go?” Suroth moves from the “fuck around” to the “find out” parts of her life, Taim is doing his best Elaida impression, and Seth fell down a rabbit hole that led exactly nowhe...

Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where we have a lot to say about Tuon. Her dad (Karede) shows up with her ride home (Ogier Gardeners) after her Spring Break (kidnapping) is over (runs into assassins), and he even lets her boyfriend (Mat) live to see another day (battle).   Support medical aid for Palestinians https://www.map.org.uk/   Sign or write letters to Congress with ResistBot  https://resist.b...

Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where we have a longtime fan and original co-editor Jon al’Jenn on as a guest! We start with Karede and his possibly problematic sidekick as they track “General Merrilin,” then hop over to Camelyn where Elayne gets a prenatal exam and then clinches the nomination for the throne.  Jon’s PR for Andor on Twitter: https://x.com/VisitAndor Support medical aid for Palestinia...

Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where we are on episode 500?!!?!?!?! Thank you for being on this journey with us. We start the episode with some heavy-hitting Patreon thank yous, eventually turning to Rand and his explosive meeting with Semirhage in one of the more iconic moments of the later series.

Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where we are wholly confused by the timeline and canonical order of events. Tuon gets the closest to admitting she was wrong that she’ll ever get, Aradia stands up for Talmanes, and Seth notices that the Band’s startup capital came from its own captains.  Support medical aid for Palestinians https://www.map.org.uk/   Sign or write letters to Congress with ResistBot  ht...

Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where we have a returning guest who loves Mat AND knows the difference between venomous and poisonous! Margeau joins us for an Elaida that is going full Henry VIII/Aridhol as well as a solid ream of evidence that Vanindred is a real plot. We also have a good mountain lesson at the end, both in the book and IRL. Support medical aid for Palestinians https://www.map.org.u...

Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where it is time for Aradia to retract a metaphor and for Seth to frown at a possible retcon.
