This discussion of Netflix's The Witcher Season 3 was recorded in July 2023 prior to the Hollywood writers' and actors' strikes.

Bo from the US and Elora from the Netherlands join Alyssa for our discussion of Netflix's The Witcher Episode 304 "The Invitation". Very important bits include: Emperor Emhyr's beliefs, Yennefer's place within the Brotherhood of Sorcerers, a short return to 'monster of the week', the search for self-worth, and the heightening of conflict before the end of Season 3, Part 1.
