Wheel of Time Spoilers 346 - COS - Ch 1 - High Chasaline
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.

Wheel of Time Spoilers 344 - COS - Lightnings Part 3
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.

Wheel of Time Spoilers 341 - Tangents of Chaos
Aradia takes their usual position driving a tangent-filled episode between WoT books. We tried using video for the first time for this episode, which was fun but also precluded our usual editing process, so this time you get to enjoy a raw and uncut discussion about the highs and lows of Lord of Chaos, through the eyes of five content creators.

Wheel of Time Spoilers 340 - LOC - Epilogue - The Answer
Enarra comes back to help us close out the epilogue of Lord of Chaos. Lots of reading out loud for this one! This is the end of Era 2 of the saga of the Dragon of Time, and the midpoint of the series, congrats to us for getting here. The Lord of Chaos is indeed ruling. Goodbye Herid Fel, too bad you couldn't light that pipe with your mind. This is our first sighting of a golem, which calls to mind this periodic reminder: http://www.steelypips.org/wotfaq/1_dark/1.6_beasties/1.6.2_gholam.html Link to Aradia and Seth’s version of Karethaon Rhapsody for the Dusty Wheel parody challenge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AMaYIY99jw Join the conversation on Discord: https://discord.gg/YtWvCnS Contribute on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wotspoilers Email us: wotspoilers@gmail.com Twitter: @wotspoilers Instagram: @wot_spoilers Facebook: @WOTSpoilers

Seth and Aradia are joined by Szeth, first-time guest and winner of the SpoilerCon2019 silent auction for the guest spot on this recording! A record-shattering 47 guests tuned in live to listen to this highly anticipated chapter, in which we discuss the actual duration and agony of Rand’s time in the box, are staggered by the scale of death in fantasy and real life, contemplate the many ways in which the Aiel have responded to their world being turned upside down, and debate the morality of the battle’s conclusion.

Wheel of Time Spoilers 338 - LOC - Ch 54 - The Sending
Brett from Wheel Weaves rejoins us for 10 days of Perrin gathering an army on the way to Dumai’s Wells. Warfare is changing across the series, even as Perrin keeps the national groupings of his army more separate than the other two ta’veren. Seth reads a chilling passage of wolf conversation. Other important topics covered include Ogier ears, human navels, apologizing Danil’s brother Tell, wondering if Verin tipped off Taim, and celebrating Aradia’s 3rd anniversary of their first appearance on the podcast! Go back to EP75 for a blast of nostalgia, when Seth and Patrick were first figuring out how to pronounce “Aradia” and all the mics were of lower quality: https://wotspoilers.com/wheel-of-time-spoilers-75-tgh-the-testing Brett from The Wheel Weaves can be found at https://thewheelweavespodcast.libsyn.com Join the conversation on Discord: https://discord.gg/YtWvCnS Contribute on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wotspoilers Email us: wotspoilers@gmail.com Twitter: @wotspoilers Instagram: @wot_spoilers Facebook: @WOTSpoilers
