We figured that after Dawnshard and Rhythm of War, we're going to be a *bit* busy, and we had a huge queue of Who's That Cosmere Characters, so let's get through a bunch of them now! And oh boy we get off the rails here, but we have lots of fun! You could say there's lots of Fafen around. Ben (Overlord Jebus) is hosting, and we also have Eric (Chaos), Evgeni (Argent), Alyx (Feather), and Marvin (Paleo).

Things keep happening! We got the prologue for the Dawnshard novella, so we discuss that some, and then it occurred to us that we haven't talked about Words of Brandon in forever. There was even an event in the before-times of February! Also, a bunch of stuff from the livestreams. Next time we'll have more Words of Brandon, too! Our cast today is Eric (Chaos), Ian (Weiry), Evgeni (Argent), and Marvin (Paleo). This episode is edited by the lovely Feather, who is just the best.

Rhythm of Previews, our readthrough of the Rhythm of War preview chapters, continues with chapter 7!

(Sorry this one is late on audio!) Rhythm of Previews, our readthrough of the Rhythm of War preview chapters, continues, but now it's just going to be one chapter per week from now on. But that's okay, that means these will be... slightly shorter, maybe! In the episode Paleo notices something and it turns out to be an official error. Remember, proofread hasn't happened yet! Also guest starring: thunder! The Stormfather visited Paleo, but you can only hear it in the video once.
