  • AMAZING!

    Love this podcast! Steven and Hayden are smart and hilarious, they’re making these books really enjoyable to read. I appreciate that I can read along with it and I look forward to the episodes even more than reading the chapters. It’s honestly so great and so much fun. Highly suggest listening!!!

  • LOVE the podcast!

    I’ve read Mistborn and stormlight archive already and I love these stories so much. I have a long TBR and don’t have time to do a reread but this podcast is basically that! I love goofiness of the hosts and how much they love the cosmere as much as I do. Keep going and I can’t WAIT for Steven to meet Kaladin. I have no one to obsess over this series with so I guess I’ll just keep listening to these guys.

    Smash Daddy sounds like a word Matt Gaetz uses for his member. Having yall invade most of the podcasts i listen to is a punishment. Please stop.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Audience Q&A
Q: Which Sanderson character trait do you see shine in the other co-host and which in yourself?
Hayden leans toward epigraph traits (mysterious and oblique), Steven aligns with Breeze's humor and a wry, observational wit, while both see growth in characters like Elland from Mistborn and Tensoon in Book 2.

Q: What is your personal favorite ideal among The Night's Radiant?
I would probably say, I will protect those who cannot protect themselves. Life Before Death is a huge one for me, too.
Mistborn & Stormlight Archive Are Coming To AppleTV w/ Ben Grange
Q: Do you think Sanderson's prolific writing was part of Apple's consideration?
Yes, absolutely. Brandon has an exceptional storytelling voice and approaches his literary universe uniquely, understanding how to cater to his audience.
Mistborn & Stormlight Archive Are Coming To AppleTV w/ Ben Grange
Q: What was your reaction to the news of the Apple TV deal?
I shouldn't say I was shocked because I've kind of known behind-the-scenes things that have been happening for quite a while, but I'm very pleased to see that he inked this deal.
Red Rising Origins w/ Pierce Brown
Q: Was the idea of Darrow first or was more so the idea of the society?
EO came first. Darrow came later, inspired by Antigone's strong choice amidst conflict.
