Today we discuss lesbian pocket universes, intricate stonework forest wall THAT DONT EXIST IN THE TV UNIVERSE, and beautiful scenes in the 6th episode of Amazon's Wheel of Time adaptation. The Flame of Tar Valon
Stephen is Back!
We cover the 6th episode of the Wheel Of Time Blood Calls Blood. If you stay after the credits we will go on a tangent about the Expanse books and other probably much better Amazon show!
We got to the good episodes!!!!
Today we cover the 4th episode in Amazon's Wheel of Time, the first episode that strays far, faaar afield of the books and also the first good pretty much all the way through epiosed.
Stephen couldn't be on this episode he was busy watching the epic new Spiderman movie... Then Joel couldn't get it edited very fast because he was busy helping people move and doing holiday stuff. buuuut all that doesn't matter because we have the best guest host we could have asked for Jacob Dale, who not only re-watched the episode right before recording but came with pages of notes and instantly became perhaps the best prepared voice you've ever heard on this podcast.
Thanks 1 million to Jacob and we will see you next week with episode 5!
Tune in for our coverage of episodes 2 & 3 of Amazon's Wheel of Time.
Fair warning we had technical issues, a lot of spoilers, a little to drink and a guest on the episode!
Thanks again to Joel's BF Dylan Bales for joining us to give the perspective of someone who hasn't read any of the books on the first 3 episodes of season 1.
We're Back!!!
So Joel has been finally reading the Epic Fantasy series Wheel Of Time, and Amazon is now making it into a show. Stephen and Joel are going to follow along and tell you what they changed from the books, what we wished they would have done and what we thought of each episode.
Along the way, we're going to have guests with different levels of exposure to the source material come on and give their opinions.
This week we are taking on the first of what sorta works like a three-parter episode Leavetaking which serves as everyone's... sub-optimal at best live-action introduction to the Wheel of Time universe.
What's the book about that guy hallucinating all night? or the one where a husband and wife are separated for a long time and totally wink wink didn't cheat on each other?
Play along as we try to stump each other with badly explained plots. Can you guess them faster than we can? Do you have a badly explained plot you think will stump us we'd love to hear from you email us at [email protected]
"That was a Journey... that made no sense and I'm sorry we went on" Quote from this episode and oney good explanation for why it took so long to come out.
I'd say sorry both Stephen and I went through a move, vacations and job changes also it just got hot and the world keeps getting more discouraging and less fun and we got lazy, but all those sound like dumb excuses and who cares. So we are back with weird trends in books and badly explained plots plus book games and more and more recomendations. I can't promise we will get back to doing episodes every week or every other week but we will try to be more regular.
Thanks for listening remember to share with friends!!
There are some house keeping announcments and a shout out at the begining... and then Joel kind of goes on a 15 minute rant about the Oklahoma Legislature. Eventually we get to a place where we pick out a writing prompt and through digital time travel then present two brand new original works we wrote over the weekend. Enjoy!
Well, we almost get to a point this episode, mostly we have fun dissecting some of our favorite archetype scenes and discussing On Writing Tips. tune in next time when we hopefully share more of our original work.
After Stephen finally got a switch Joel gave in and played one of the Witcher games and both saw this post on reddit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBCZgXHrigo The guys decided to talk about what other book-to-video-game adaptations we would want to play.
