Welcome back to WoTSpoilers, where it is time for endless innuendo while the siege of Caemlyn happens. We debate the literal or metaphorical purpose of the random storm, learn where Charlz Guybon really comes from, and glare at a myriad of Chekhov’s Swans. We also thank new Patreons at the top and talk about the partial solar eclipse at the end.

We are joined by a long-time listener and fellow podcaster to cover the Beetle Chapter! In addition to getting too invested in calculating beetle mass we also debate the ecological wisdom of making forkroot into a cash crop, critique the assassins’ choices, and discover exactly the pathway by which Aradia found their way to WoTSpoilers.

This week we are still with Mat, watching reality fall apart and also going on first dates in dive bars. The letter is finally revealed! Tuon gets a beer foam mustache.

This week we are still with Mat and his merry band of Demandreds, Dragons, and Derricks. Aradia and Seth each take offense to a different aspect of Tuon, from RJ’s vague knowledge about tailoring to in-world superstitions.

This week we are with Mat, who does some things we love and some things we very much do not love. We talk about birds, horses, and chemistry. The prose is so lovely that we got through two chapters in one episode!

This week we join Perrin as he meets our second-favorite Seanchan. We enjoy the bright colors of Seanchan armor, marvel at the logic of a lethal bureaucracy, and wonder about the efficacy of forkroot on various levels of channeling experience.

It’s the Darkfriend Social 2.0! You don’t want to miss Seth’s Aran’gar voice, or our revisionist history of how the Forsaken should be living and dying at this point in the story. We also question Aginor’s sexuality and compare the merits of headaches vs all other body pains.

Moving from the slopes of Dragonmount into the White Tower, we are immersed in analogy as well as an irrational love of Beonin. RJ addresses us directly via ghost, Aradia wonders about Tar Valon’s water supply, and Seth sees old corporate branding as part of Elaida’s problem.

Welcome back to the Wheel of Time Spoilers podcast, where we gratefully sink into the comforting familiarity of The Paragraph, compare Suian’s experiences with boats vs horses, and untangle some confusing tent arrangements.

Welcome back to the Wheel of Time Spoilers podcast, where it is time to speculate about the Oath Rod’s functions and dimensions, who is or is not in the cover scene artwork, and name salad made with iceberg lettuce. We each learn some new things, disagree about how cool Sylviana is, and consider the trope of pain tolerance as a proxy for being a moral character.

Welcome back to the Wheel of Time Spoilers podcast, where we have our first guest of 2024! Abby Goldsmith is a longtime fan of WoT, a fellow podcaster, and an author with a series of books currently coming out. We talk about the quality of Seanchan education, the material used to make the sad bracelets, and generally marvel at old recap in a new POV.

We’re finally here!!! We’re in the 4th quarter of the Wheel of Time!!!
We try to get into Galad’s head by contemplating the difference between what has to be done vs the right thing to be done. We also wonder what even is the point of Asunawa? There is some beautiful sword form poetry before the plot goes absolutely Tara-bonkers, and Editing Aradia hopes you appreciate the (relatively) succinct result.

Seth and Aradia rewatch episode four after having finished the whole season. This episode is the sort of slower burn we’ve been aching for, though it is also the episode where we start to have more disagreement with the adaptation choices.
