- Point of No Return - Part 3 (Arlington)
Chapters 20-22 of Arlington: Rally
- Further reflection on where we have been and what comes next, closing on the final episodes of Arlington.
- Discussion on the fact that our podcast is not only informed on by School of Movies, but that our work is improved by learning from it.
- Thomas and Sarah's backstory: what it means in terms of plot and larger narrative
- And finally, our dissection of all the reasons Thomas was reticent to reveal these truths.
We got a little off track discussion things that aren't directly Arlington episodes, but hopefully it all feeds into a greater whole.

1 hr 31 min - Point of No Return - Part 1 (Arlington)
This is it. The beginning of the end.
Technically we start with Chapter 17, which is still in Part 2 in the novel. But as we get into, we do have our own relevant theme for the final nine chapters of Arlington, which for the purpose of our show will be divided into three sets of three. Today we start with Chapters 17-19, Decent.
- The Book of Carl
- The Book of Seth
- The Book of... Dracula? (The answer may surprise you!)

1 hr 7 min - Whitescarves Team-Up! #8, Jesse Ferguson - Part 2
Not only is this even more conversation with Recorded Tomorrow host Jesse Ferguson, we even do some time travelling!
...okay, not really. I do share outtakes at the end at different points in our conversation, so that's kind of like time travelling.
...No? Okay then.
But we do talk about how Jesse likes to explain time travel in BITAS and other creative works, what's next for him on the creative front... and most importantly, we ask about Bishop Miller from Arlington. Come join us.

1 hr 1 min - Whitescarves Team-Up! #8, Jesse Ferguson, Part 1
This is Whitescarves Team-Up, Fireside Alliance edition.
Alex deserves full credit for this one. As mentioned recently, Through The Wind Door is part of a super community of creators, and there had already been discussion on how to do crossover episodes among the different podcasts. But given that Back in Time + Space had just come out, Alex suggested that the time was ripe to interview him for that, so everything just fits neatly together!
So if you like time travel and New Century, get you an interview that can do both. Not to mention that unlike our News of the Century on the book, both parts of this interview are spoiler free. Enjoy as we get into the history of Jesse's love of time travel, his growing relationship with Alex and his various creative works, and the birth of Recorded Tomorrow.

1 hr 2 min - The Search Begins - Part 3 (Arlington)
Today's Episode is titled Dr. Sean Riley, or How We Learned To Stop Overthinking And Love Bob Chipman's Performance. (Also, Smoke Weed Responsibly)
But seriously, today we talk about:
- The reasons why we love the character and speech of Sean Riley
- Toby's specific reflections on what his speech means to him as an academic
- The feelings evoked by Eli Roach, and discussion of the etymology of his name
- Outtakes!
And most importantly,, time taken out to specifically shout out our fellow creators at the Fireside Alliance, which we had not really mentioned before now since our fanbase is already a subset of Alex's, and those folks are already in the know. But among the stuff we called out:

54 min - The Search Begins - Part 2 (Arlington)Once more, a shorter episode than usual, but that's because an incredibly intriguing discussion had to be sequestered to it's own spot in order to avoid potentially spoiling new readers. I don't know how many of those we have, but bear ye in mind: if you have not read/listened through Uncivil Outlaw, stop listening at or before the outro music! This warn you!In the meantime:Our myriad discussion on the magic of Carl and Old NedHorror Stories on the Frontier: Here There Be DragonsThe return to the political thriller in chapter 15, as we start exploring the challenges of the DC teamDiscussing the characterization of MacPherson and Fisher, and who we fear moreAnd as always, more ruminations on the essential nature of ThomasThe New Century Multiverse Website:https://www.newcenturymultiverse.comThe New Century Multiverse Podcast Feed:https://newcenturyshow.podbean.com/Fireside Alliance: https://firesidealliance.squarespace.com/Intro is "One Person, Listening Now" by Doctor Turtle of FMAOutro is "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" by LordePost Outro music is "Shout (Instrumental)" by Tears for Fears54 min
- The Search Begins - Part 1 (Arlington)Holy shit, we got to act 2 of Arlington! Celebration time!Seriously, as always seems to happen, we focus mostly on Chapter 13 in this episode, so chapters 14-16 will happen later. But there is content! Including:Discussion of how genre mixing, and how music is used to separate out two different moods/stories inside ArlingtonThe White House MeetingHow all the leadup and character introduction in Act 1 prepared us for this momentAnd our brand new segment: Musings on ManticoresThe New Century Multiverse Website:https://www.newcenturymultiverse.comThe New Century Multiverse Podcast Feed:https://newcenturyshow.podbean.com/Fireside Alliance: https://firesidealliance.squarespace.com/Intro is "One Person, Listening Now" by Doctor Turtle of FMAOutro is "Manticore" by Ninja Sex Party1 hr
- Allies - Part 10 (Arlington)An unexpectedly short episode. Due to the way we weren't able to finish the topic list in one session, we had a second one to finish off. The session was long, but much of it was content that wasn't New Century related. I didn't remember this, so I assumed I had enough for a 45 minute episode plus outtakes, and ended up significantly shorter.To make up for it, a long involved Outro, plus some stuff that would have normally ended up on the cutting room floor. Future info redacted, so you can enjoy it even if you haven't read this far. But of the topics we do cover:Family gestures beyond wordsOur thoughts on the close of Act 1, and what comes nextAnd as for the rest?

About Through The Wind Door
From the publisher's feed
In 2013, Alex Shaw published a small novel called The Cartographer’s Handbook, the first in a series called The New Century Multiverse.
The premise is alt history, where post-Civil War America is suddenly overcome with a plague of dangerous monsters that overwhelm the Reconstruction, and bring the nation to its knees. The series is not about its fall, however, but about the heroes that help bring it back from the brink, and step into a wider world that is not the one they knew. New mysteries to unlock, magics to discover, and worlds to explore.
Ten years later, the New Century Multiverse is now thirteen books strong, with more on the way. It has had 2 major story arcs, an Avengers style coming together of the heroes of its various books, and multiple worlds and genres to explore. This is its first fan podcast.
Through The Wind Door is a deep dive exploration of the novels and their corresponding audiodramas, along with interviews of the cast and creators. Accessible to new readers and long time fans, join Greg and Toby as they share thoughts about this engaging series.
