Plenty can be said about how Robert Jordan uses gender in his books. In this episode, we focus on Saidar and Saidin, the two halves of the One Power, and the gender dynamics (and stereotypes) they often involve. We also talk about what the TV show has done so far, and how this magical system could be a bit less... binary.

There are countless turnings of the Wheel of Time. But in this age, called by some the Rainbow Age, the threads spin a rather colorful pattern in which four major characters are…gay as hell. Today we’ll be talking about Nynaeve, Cadsuane, Rand, and Perrin, and how their stories and the overall threads of the pattern might change this new weaving.
