Sandersonian Institute of Cosmere Studies #166: Dawnshard Reread - "Crispin Swift"
Dawnshard is another example of Brandon's "shorter" work, and much like the rest of his "short" pieces, it's incredibly dense. There's a ton of character development, additional lore, answered questions and brand new mysteries! So what'd you think of it?

Sandersonian Institute of Cosmere Studies #164: "Don't Simp for Villains" - Oathbringer Revisisted
Sorry we're late! Our editor was out of town!
Bill is out this week, but fortunately, Seth from The Cosmere Academy was willing to substitute teach! (A little "Institute/Academy" humor there...)
In this episode, Jordan, Amy, and Seth continue the Stormlight reread and take another look at Oathbringer. (Seriously, how did I miss this one!? SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT!) So come along and listen to the discussion, then share your thoughts with us in the YouTube comments or at cosmerestudies@gmail.com!

Customer Reviews
Great Podcast
Just found this podcast about a month ago and have really enjoyed binging this podcast. Keep up the great work!!
Great podcast!
Love the in depth knowledge and discussions relating to the Cosmere! Great stuff! Biggest downside is that I need more! I hope to hear a lot more during the year Sanderson!
Great voices and audio. In my opinion A big factor in podcasts is the audio and voice of the people talking. I enjoy the other podcasts made relating to the Cosmere, but a lot of them have unpleasant voices or talk in such a way that grinds on you. Oh and of course audio issues with one person being too loud, next to quiet etc you get the idea. This podcast is wonderful and great production. Thank you and looking forward to more!
Amazing!
These people have great chemistry, and amazing thoughts! I always learn so much when I listen and having met the hosts I personally think they're great people
