Hello all! We finally made it to the 2nd era of Mistborn! Here we talk about The Alloy of Law, the Wax and Wayne series book 1 by Brandon Sanderson. We get a chance to talk about our intro thoughts, the progression of Scadrial into the western and semi-industrial era, our feelings about the main characters, and the new magic system elements introduced in this book. A...

Hello all! This is our final discussion on the Mistborn series era one, book 3, The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson. We still apologize as the audio is still from the old setup (pre-recorded) and about the same as the previous part. It's not the best, but please enjoy it anyway. We talk about Vin, Marsh, what could be next for the world, the missing metals and so m...

Hello all! We are finally back to the Mistborn series! And here, we talk about the "real" Hero of Ages! We apologize as the audio is our old setup (pre-recorded). It's not the best, but please enjoy our dive into the end of this great series! The story reveals so much to us in these books that it made us look forward to the next era in the Mistborn realm. Enjoy part ...

Hello all, here is the very final discussion on Rhythm of War and the book's end by Brandon Sanderson. That is until the "Brett Bet" episodes hit again or we do a revisit on the book. It was intense, the spirits were flowing, so naturally, it gets less and less articulate throughout, but we had a blast. We talk through Kaladin, Dalinar, and oh so much more. We cannot wait to see where the series goes next!

Hello all, here is our discussion on Brandon Sanderson's Rhythm of War Part 5 and the bookend! It ended up being a long one so we split it into 2 parts like the previous episodes (the second part will be episode 107). We had some major discussions on where the book is going next, many of the characters (less Kaladin and Dalinar as we focused on them in part 2), and m...

Hello all, here is our final discussion on Brandon Sanderson's Rhythm of War Part 4! Unfortunately, we spend the first 25 minutes debating our love-hate relationship with Venli. Sorry about that, but it just happens sometimes! We are who we are  LOL.  If that’s not for you skip ahead a bit to our discussion on the rest of Navani Kholin's story at the tower, the order of Willshapers, and the outcome of part 4. We are excited to get ...

Hello all, here is the part 2 discussion on Brandon Sanderson's Rhythm of War Part 2! Sorry, we had to delay a bit. There were very unfortunate external circumstances that took our group by surprise. As a whole, we needed to pivot a week to allow us to give the time and respect deserved for this book.

This time we dig into Kaladin, and the other main character arcs of Part 2. Also, we are recording part 3 to get it to you all ASAP!...

**UPDATE: If you have one of the first 9 downloads of this episode it would be worth it to delete and redownload. For the first 9 downloads of the launch, the Randall Flagg refill breaks were not edited out. This has been corrected. Cheers!

I have to say this is a very hard episode. Not because we didn’t have a fun recording session, but I am releasing on a day we lost somebody very special to us. I realized though, that it is duri...

We talk about Kaladan and Shallan's struggles, Rock's future, And a great deal about the atmosphere of the characters through part 1.

As alw...

Hello all!  We are so pumped to release our Rhythm of War Part 1 by Brandon Sanderson discussion 1 (of 2 discussions).

We save most of the main character conversations for the next episode, but we are excited about the selected focal points Sanderson has included so far. Naturally, we make some lofty Brett bets too. We...
