The Sanderlanche Podcast

Our time on Scadrial draws to a close this week, at least for now. It's bittersweet for some of the crew. On the one hand, we get to see our old friends again. On the other, Spook is king. Stay tuned after the Secret History discussion, though, for a dramatic reading of The Traveler, an unpublished, never-even-finished short story by Brandon. The Cosmere really begins to open up with possibilities for us on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Lots of weirdness this week, not the least of which is the IRE and what the heck is going on with any of that. There's cons being pulled and possibly a rave happening. We find out the secret identity of the sexy drifter, and everyone is thinking maybe there's something more to this guy than we thought before, but what could it be? Oh, and also Kelsier becomes a god. You know, no big. The big news, though, is that Joe finally gets to really delve into the mediocrity of Final Fantasy 9, a moment I know you've all been waiting for. Your prayers have at long last been answered on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!   For next week, we're finishing Secret History, but we'll also be reading The Traveler. So I'm including a link to that right here for everyone.

Courtesy of Sasha: In this episode, we get Khrissalla Explains It All and then a Ghost Road Trip!

Kelsier spends an episode imprisoned, and he's not liking it one bit. Our crew however is really getting into Secret History. The Drifter in particular has elicited some very strong reactions, to the point that it gets just a little bit weird, I think. Find out what I mean on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

We begin delving into the mysteries of Mistborn: Secret History this episode. No one knew quite what to expect going in, but they pretty much all knew they weren't expecting this. Hear the varied reactions to the shocking revelations on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

This is it, folks, the big one. We're finishing not only this book, but the whole trilogy we've been working on since the show started. Will they love it? Will they hate it? Find out this week on The Sanderlanche!

Lot of chapters in this, the penultimate episode of the Mistborn era 1 trilogy. Vin's a god now. Whoda thunkit? Certainly not any of our crew. No one is quite sure what to expect next since, "main character becomes a god" wasn't on anybody's bingo card up to this point, and that's something of a game-changer. We're deep in the Sanderlanche now, and everyone is flailing a bit trying to figure out where it's going to put us down. It's a very exciting, confusing time on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Everyone is hyped by reading one of the coolest fights in the series, Vin vs more than a dozen inquisitors. Goradel dies, which is a bummer, but it pays off when Marsh gets his moment to shine. The Sanderlanche is in full swing now, and the whole crew is amazed that we're so close to the end, and no one can say how it will go. Check out their predictions approaching the end of the trilogy on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Long episode this week. There's just so much starting to happen. Vin and Yomen make friends (kinda?), Vin kills Marsh (briefly), and Ruin proves that, yes, he CAN, in fact, take control of armies of Koloss. That's the last time we ever doubt the word of the epigraph writer. We are rapidly approaching the end of this trilogy, and you can feel the excitement in the air on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

In these chapters, things really start to heat up, sometimes quite literally. Spook has his heroic almost-death moment, and gets some begrudging respect from our crew. Sadly, we don't get TenSoon Kelsier vs Ruin Kelsier, which everyone was kind of pulling for. Meanwhile, elsewhere, everything else seems to be moving into position for the dominos to start falling over. Other than that, we've got some new members of the Misting Crew, Dac composes his own tombstone, and I announce exactly what we'll be reading when Hero of Ages wraps up. Very exciting week for The Sanderlanche!
