Starting a new series can be tough, and we generally are unsure of what to expect. Whether it is a book or TV series, there is always some apprehension. To help with that, especially for us who have read The Wheel of Time book series and will be soon watching the TV show, we sat down with the lovely KritterXD to talk about managing our expectations.

It only took us until our fourth year making content to do an episode all about Perrin. Josh was off doing his family duties, so it's just Andrew and Daniel for this one.

What better way to start off our third season of content (4th year, yeah we keep it confusing here) than with subpar audio quality? This episode was recorded at our annual event, The Gathering Madness, and the mics were.....open.....and yeah, we're sorry about that. But if you can last past the static, there's a conversation we just know you'll love!

Can the Dark One actually win? Inspired by a comment requesting that we answer the same question as Dusty Wheel has, the boys in black (minus a traveling Josh) sat down with Thom from Dragonmount and JordanCon to discuss the metaphysics, set somethings straight, and determine what may be possible.

So there was supposed to be a topic.....but bubbles of evil said no to it. So it's just an almost lost compilation of randomness. Almost like a bonus episode taking the place of our regular episode.
