Ooof. That was a tough one. Sorry about the late publication, things happen. Anywhoo, The Empire Strikes Back in the Wheel of Time!!! Everyone enslaved or stilled or killed! Or just abandoned! (Thanks Mat!) The Wheel of Time ‘Cast finally has it’s full complement of hosts this week as Greg, Veronica, and Ben break down some phenomenal depressing performances, and get to wonder at how we only have two more episodes to speculate on the fate of our favorite (or despised) characters.

Oh boy, this was a bit of a harsh episode. From the ashes of an inn rises a…Forsaken lover? Little of bit of timeline confusion, but we got quite a few reveals from this episode, and some secrets aired out, from some of Moiraine’s history, to the revelation that all Aes Sedai don’t necessarily fight for the Light, to the fact that even “powerless” Aes Sedai are able to physically defend themselves and their self appointed wards. Join Greg and Veronica as they break down this episode with enjoyment and fervor! Let us know what you think of the next episode and we’ll read or play it on the show!

At long last, our coverage of Episode 3! Apologies for the delay, but we are almost caught up! This was quite a dense episode, showing development on a lot of fronts, but can we just give a golf-clap for a heck of a performance by Zoë Robbins? Nynaeve went through a lot here, and we want to apologize up front for the fruity language, we were emotionally put through the ringer as well. Join Greg and Veronica as they delve deep into the ter'angreal and pull out the dark thoughts and fears they buried deep!Let us know what you think of the next episode and we’ll read or play it on the show!

More adventures across the land!

The Wheel of Time is back!! Almost 2 years after the release of season 1, the Dragon is back and riding on the winds of...well, the podcast waves. Six months have passed since Rand fought whom he thought was the Dark One at the Eye of the World, and Moiraine has been cut off from the Source. Join Greg and Veronica as they delve back into the world with some new characters, new locations, new powers, new Mat, and the same cranky Nynaeve. Welcome back, and we are excited to talk more about it!!Check out this podcast and other great shows at podcastica.com.

The end of the first season is here, and reviews are...mixed. Some great heavy acting from mainstays and favorite characters, mingled with some pretty confusing lingo and concepts led to some disagreements on the episode, but we had a great time breaking this one down. From a pretty intriguing (although subtitled) flashback to a showdown at the Eye of the World (or in Rand's mind) to a full blown massacre of Trollocs via the One Power, this episode had a lot going on, and some worked, and some fell a little flat. Thanks for joining us for our coverage and for all of your wonderful feedback! Looking forward to next season already!If Loial dies, we RIOT!!!You can find our contact info and all our other shows at: podcastica.com Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Dragon Reborn is finally revealed!! Ben returns with Wendy and Greg to discuss an amazing opening sequence and their take on the the penultimate episode of this season. From a battle in the Ways to the fortress of Fal Dara to the return of our favorite peddler, we break down our favorite (or less favorite) parts of this episode. While we may not agree on all aspects of the show, we are really invested in the characters and can't wait to see what the Eye of the World is going to deliver!
