  • Constructive criticism

    Please take this honestly and not a reactionary response, I’ve been listening for years and will continue because of the analysis and insight of the hosts, but for the love of god the political tangents (or any non WOT tangent) have got to stop. People are inundated with surface level hot takes from all sides and come here to escape the real world and listen to stuff about a made up world. And I like Aradia and glad she’s as big of a nerd as I am but it always comes from her, along with shoehorn... more

  • Just not what it used to be

    I started binging the show during my first reread of Wheel of Time. In the beginning, it was a relatively focused, fun show analyzing themes in what has quickly become one of my favorite book series. Around the time Patrick left, however, the show lost its focus. I love Aradia as a host, but her and Seth just don’t focus on the actual chapter. It started to feel like half of the episode was just unrelated or loosely related tangents about random things, or even worse political rants that are inc... more

  • Show really changed

    Loved it when Patrick was on board. They really focused on a particular chapter. But then would give occasional in-site on the series. After Patrick left the show episodes got really long. Adria is knowledgeable, and I don’t have an issue with her at all. But many times they get off topic. And I hate when the have to explain how the book “had not aged well” when they don’t agree with something. Or have to talk politics. If I want a sermon I will go to church. Not listen to a podcast on ... more
