In this episode of The Black Tower Podcast, we turn our gaze north to the borderlands and dive deep into the life and legacy of Ethenielle Kirukon Materasu, the indomitable Queen of Kandor. A ruler, a warrior, and a mother, Ethenielle’s story is one of strength, sacrifice, and the burden of duty in a world ever on the brink of chaos.
Join us as we explore her political insight, her role among the Borderland monarchs, and her decision to march south in defiance of prophecy and fear. What drove her to take up arms when others hesitated? What does her leadership reveal about the will of the Borderlanders—and the heart of the North?
Whether you’re a long-time Wheel of Time fan or just diving into the lore, this episode offers fresh perspectives on one of the series’ most underrated queens.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
