WoT Spoilers

Aradia interprets the language of fans, has no idea where the phrase “the pot calling the kettle black” comes from, and is swayed by Seth’s conspiracy theory that Colavere didn’t actually hang herself. We also ask the most important question in the books: can Verin do the sa’sara? SpoilerCon Newsletter dropped on the night of April 14th, check your inboxes!

Recappa Sedai returns for part two-of-three of getting Perrin back to Cairhien and Faile. Some rare irritation at Loial comes up, all knowledge of Winter Dragon is banished, and a record-setting number of tangents keep us off-track.

We are joined by Brian, who plays Recappa Sedai on YouTube, to help us flesh out content over the next few chapters in which Perrin slowly and anxiously returns to Cairhien in the aftermath of Dumai’s Wells. But first, we have to tackle the physics of gateways, with a little help from Carl Sagan. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnURElCzGc0)   Our exasperation with Perrin is counterbalanced by our love for the Wise Ones. Warder-bonding innovations are the equivalents of sushi-burritos. Aram and Loial are the Devil/Angel on Perrin’s shoulders, though Seth enjoys reading Loial far, far more. SpoilerCon announcement: the first newsletter is published!

Brett from The Wheel Weaves podcast comes back to help us spot even more Aes Sedai hypocrisy in the aftermath of Dumai’s Wells, discover that there is a fantasy trope about throwing items into volcanoes, and question Loial’s journalistic tact. There is also a discussion about beards.

Thom (of Dragonmount, JordanCon, TarValon.net, & WoT community show) returns to help us read in the wind as it sweeps over Dumai’s Wells. We imagine what the lost nation of Coremande was like from only three textual references, give RJ the benefit of the doubt on writing toxic masculinity, and wish that Loial could sit Perrin and Aram both down for a good long talk about trauma and empathy.

With Thom of Dragonmount, JordanCon, TarValon.net, WoT community show, and an awesome Perrin cosplay. First, we go on a prologue tangent about prologue writing, to start a trend of  massive tangents all about life, the universe, and most things. We ponder a new possible reason for Fel’s demise, Seth struggles with names, Aradia struggles to explain a meme, and Thom admires slime molds. Evil will always turn on itself, Mesaana is using an Instagram filter, and Jarna Malari made a big impression with her public death.

Starting a new book! In a new format! At a new recording time!  We invite Jess the Amyrlin back to take on the first quarter of this very long prologue. We spend a lot of time on the opening prophecy, the land is one with the Dragon, etc etc. Elaida’s clock inspires a Night Circus shoutout. Where does forkroot come from? And how? And why?  Announcements about SPOILERCON Spoilercon will be held on October 1-3 in Portland, OR Currently planning an in-person/digital hybrid event Information on venue, registration, and art contest will be forthcoming at a later date On Twitter @spoilercon and newsletter at bit.ly/SConNews  WE ARE EXCITED!!!!!
