Love these guys
I’ve tried a few WOT book pods and this one is my favorite. Super great nerdy references to other epic tales. Smart and not puffed up know it all dudes. Please keep it coming.
Terrific podcast for Wheel of Time fans
I was so fortunate to learn about this podcast when one of the hosts (Greg) mentioned it during an appearance on a Star Wars podcast (The Wampa’s Lair) a couple months ago. I had just started reading The Eye of the World in January of 2023 and instantly started listening to Greg and Tyler break down and discuss two chapters of the book each week. It helped me to reinforce and remember what I had already read and also to pick up on things that I missed. Now that I am ready to begin The Great Hunt, I am ready to follow along again as they have already begun breaking this book down as well, as they work their way through the entire series. So if you are new or old to Robert Jordan’s fantasy epic, be sure to listen to this podcast as these two awesome guys bring you their take on the Wheel of Time “in their own sweet time”.
