    Ep 7: Warbreaker Characters 2

    Helloooo! In this part 2 of our WB character episode (because we rambled too much to fit it into one), Jack and I fawn over Lightsong (mostly Jack), make some terrible jokes (mostly me), and talk about how weird it is that Jewels sleeps with Clod (both). It's... a time. Thank you for listening to Highly Invested! I’m joined by various guests to do cosmere readthroughs and discussions of specific topics.

    Ep 6: Warbreaker Characters

    Hi! In this episode, I'm joined by my roommate for their FIRST cosmere book, Warbreaker!! We spend way too long gushing over Siri/Seb and yelling about autistic lesbian icon Vivenna, and it's great. Thank you for listening to Highly Invested!

    Ep 5: Rhythm of War 2/2

    Helloooo! College has been eating up all my time, but I’m going to be releasing (at least) one episode monthly, on the last Monday of the month. This is part two of talking about RoW with my friend - spoilers for Warbreaker and Mistborn era 1, as well as obviously Stormlight. Thank you for listening to Highly Invested!

    Ep 4: Rhythm of War!

    After a short break, I'm back with another friend to talk about Rhythm of War! In this episode, we talk about some of our favorite moments, cosmere connections in RoW, and the epigraphs, and we also talk for far too long about Raboniel. (Because I'm in love with her.) SPOILER WARNING for basically the entire cosmere except Bands of Mourning and Dawnshard. Thank you for listening to Highly Invested!

    Ep 3: Pronunciation!

    Welcome back! In this episode, Dante and Sebastian have joined forces with me to horribly butcher the pronunciation of all your favorite cosmere characters! Also, we kin assign fruit to characters. For some reason. And Dante infodumps about the history of Mary Poppins. And Eve comes to realizations about Mario. SPOILER WARNING for Mistborn era 1 and Way of Kings through Oathbringer, as well as vague RoW spoilers.

    Ep 2: Way of Kings Mechanics

    "There are spren, there are rhythms, and there are crabs." Hello! This is part 2 of the WoK discussion with my little sister - this episode focuses more on mechanics. We talk about spren! We talk about Surges! I attempt to infodump about realmatic theory but then get confused! And also we make some terrible jokes ("Elfcaller" and "Transportation: get on a bus" chief among them) and I rant about the pronunciation of Nahel. High quality content. (Please, I am begging you, turn your volume down - Val is SO LOUD in this episode and I cannot fix it.)

    Ep 1: Way of Kings Structure & Characters

    Welcome back! In this episode, I (Eve) talk to my little sister Val, who's just finished reading The Way of Kings. She has some... interesting hot takes, ranging from "Shallan is a Voidbringer" to "chasmfiends are slugs with turtle shells and horns," and I realize that I picture Dalinar exactly like a character from Legend of Korra. Side note: the audio is a little funky at times. Apologies. Thank you for listening to Highly Invested, a cosmere analysis podcast brought to you by me, Eve. I'll be joined by various guests to do cosmere readthroughs and discussions of specific topics.
