The Black Tower Podcast: A Wheel of Time Podcast

Forsaken Edition of our Background Breakdown series is here! Where better to start than with Lews Therin's obsessive ex boo? We do a lot of talking about the Age of Legends and how the One Power/True Source and True Power work, but we do get to Lanfear for sure.

Breaking down and analyzing characters is one of the many things we enjoy about being fans of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time. To help us have a fun discussion about Faile Bashere, we brought on Daylin from Loial's Bookclub!

Shara. The land far East of the world we know in The Wheel of Time. So little is known about the Sharan culture, but you may be surprised by just how much we do know!

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!
