Episode 10 - Eye on the Finale
After some real-life related delays, the gleemen are back at the wheel and full of thoughts on the season finale. Some unexpected decisions were made, and your hosts try to make sense of Shienaran tactics, who's dead and who's not, and just how the One Power works on TV. They don't have all the answers, but they do have 10ish minutes to fill.

Episode 9 - It‘s Dragon Time!
We're closing in on the end (of Season 1), and now we know just who the Dragon is. The gleemen are here to chat about this week's revelations and set the stage for the big conclusion. There's even a Vonnegut reference along the way. Don't miss out!

Episode 8 - Hold the door!
The plot thickens on the Wheel of Time, and so does the adaptation. Fortunately, the Discount Gleemen are here to make sense of things. Or at least be wrong about them. Find out what caught your hosts' attention this week.

Episode 7 - Full of Feelings
The Wheel slowed down to take a breath this week. The gleemen are grateful for the chance to talk about feelings, bonds, and villains. They really gotta hand it to Child Valda: he's a jerk. Press play on the podcast for even more insightful commentary!

Episode 6 - Saidin Hits the Fan
That dreamy Logain just kicked the Wheel of Time into a new gear! The gleemen gush over the darker half of the One Power, a take on the Tinkers they never expected to see, and a new (to them) version of an old trope. May the Light shine on our heroes, because saidin definitely won't this season.

Episode 5 - More premiering!
Amazon premiered three episodes at once. What do they think this is, the prologue to a Wheel of Time novel? The gleemen have more to say about the changes, the mysteries, and the One Power. It's a veritable feast of internet opinions just in time for Turkey Day!

Now I wanna watch WOT
Just listened to my first episode and now I wanna watch a show I previously had no interest in. Great hosts who are the perfect blend of funny, nerdy, and really nerdy
