- Only podcast I listen to
I’m not a big podcast listener, but I found this podcast when I started reading the books for the first time earlier this year. There’s so much detail that you miss on a casual read-through and this is a perfect companion podcast (even for a first read) as there are no spoilers.

When I catch up to present-day I will probably just re-listen from the beginni... more

I love pedantry corner and it’s incredibly entertaining to listen to the two of you hash out the most minuscule, seemingly unimportant detail. The chemistry between the Simon and Mackelly is incredible (nod to Simon’s ph... more
