March 05, 2018 Page 160: Solicitors, Politicians, Courtesans
We learn about the Midwinter festival and talk about how fun it would be! We liken it to real-world mischief festivals, parse what the page can teach us about the setting, and analyse what Rothfuss is setting up with this passage.

March 03, 2018 Page 158: Almost Like A Home
We discuss the animalistic side of the street kids that Trapis seems to want to mitigate. We investigate why, exactly, Kvothe feels so safe simply knowing that Trapis' establishment exists.

February 28, 2018 Page 155: Better Hurrup
Kvothe finds his way to a mysterious basement and meets some very unique characters. We get our first mention of the Duke of Gibea, talk about real historical figures that probably inspired this character, and Jeremy reveals his leanings as a Plantagenet sympathizer.

We talk about how much Kvothe has adapted, take inventory of what he's got from begging, go off on a Star Wars tangent, and wonder if the rest of book is a hallucination.

February 26, 2018 Page 152: Soft Bread & Butter
Kvothe takes stock of his injuries and misses his last chance for a family for the next few years. Jeremy notices a lot of adverbs and we talk about why pages like this seem to pop up, and this somehow leads us into a discussion on how all of human culture is a meme.
