The Forsaken: A Legacy of Failure | Season 2 Episode 30

Poor Josh was feeling pretty sick, but not the rona thankfully. Or at least, so far as we know *insert dramatic music here*. But, after a brief consult with BTP's Patreon supporters, a topic was chosen. A quick trip over to a super useful discord server also yielded a last minute guest for the show to help Daniel and Andrew do more than just talk to each other. For this episode, we drop a fat First Age deuce on the Forsaken.

What do we do with the member of the Black Tower Podcast with the most swords is absent? We talk about the Borderlands of course! It's a fairly deep dive into the Borderlands, with sub-sections of smaller dives into Shienar, Arafel, Kando, and Saldaea. We all learned something in this episode, and hopefully you do too.

Hold My Ale (ft. tWoTcast) | Season 2 Episode 22

Drunken moments can occupy some of the most enjoyable times in our memories. Since we talk about the Wheel of Time then, we just had to talk about the truly and the seemingly drunken moments that take up rent-free space in our heads. Joe, Jono, and Tom from the fantastic tWoTcast were able to join us for this discussion. Josh, sadly, could not make it for this one.

BACKGROUND BREAKDOWN: Talmanes | Season 2 Episode 20

Background characters are generally either hit or miss, and many fall through the cracks and never get enough love. Similar to our character analysis series, we wanted to throw plenty of love to all of those non-main characters that we enjoy in Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time. This week, we tackle Talmanes, the lovable and trusty right hand man to Mat! We plan on doing one of these every month, so feel free to suggest who you want us to do next!
