Episode 00: The Way of Kings: His Name is…Hogath?
Meg REVELS in the fact that she’s FINALLY getting Emily to read her ALL TIME FAVORITE BOOK. Emily makes multiple guesses and does NOT know what she’s getting into.
Episode 01: The Way of Kings: The Prelude, Prologue & Chapter 1: Blood Orange, So Pretentious
It’s the first official episode! There’s a Prelude, a Prologue, and THEN a first chapter? We meet Tony Stark, Adam Winchester, Szeth, and Kaladin. A king is murdered and a cycle is broken.
Episode 02: The Way of Kings: Chapters 2-4: Have A Great Summer
This week we cover chapters 2-4. Emily explains why she can’t ever love Kaladin, Meg tells her she doesn’t have a very good imagination, and could being a ginger be the secret to unlimited Cosmere power?
Episode 03: The Way of Kings: Chapters 5-7: Art is Hard, You Guys
We read chapters 5-7 this week (even if Meg claims otherwise), Shallan is stuck between a rock and smoke place, Kaladin’s manager is the worst, and Kabsul is NOT a grandpa.
Episode 04: The Way of Kings: Chapters 8-11: Just a Couple of Light-Eyed Spinsters
We read chapters 8-11 this week and Meg wins for best intro. Kaladin breaks Emily's heart and Shallan is way braver than either of us.
Episode 05: The Way of Kings: The Interludes: Oh Dear, Oh Dear, Oh Dear
Oof. Apologies in advance. Our audio had a REAL hard time of it this episode. Meg's on deadline so we didn't get a chance to re-record it YET. But we're still trying to get you a better version. (We didn't want to miss a week) - And this week we read the first set of Interludes! We learn about magic fish, a budding psychopath, and Emily's boyfriend Szeth shows back up.
Episode 06: The Way of Kings: Chapters 12-14: Baby’s First Hoid
In Chapters 12-14 we spend the vast majority of it meeting the rest of the Kholin family and they are a HANDFUL. Just running around fighting monsters for glory and stuff. And Kaladin does NOT endear himself to Bridge Four OR Emily.
Episode 07: The Way of Kings: Chapters 15-17: Bloody Red ‘Sunst’
We read Chapters 15-17 this time around AND EMILY’S RECORDING EQUIPMENT IS THE WORST. (Again. New equipment is imminent. But SUSPICION. SUSPICION EVERYWHERE. Adolin just wants people to stop making fun of his dad. Kaladin just wants his bridge crew to STOP DYING. Who is gonna get what they want first?
Episode 08: The Way of Kings: Chapters 18-21: Lifted Straight from Dalinar Kholin’s Diary
Emily and Megan go through Chapters 18-21. Adolin takes his girlfriends to the nicest places. Someone is trying to (possibly) kill Elhokar, Meg shares with us the Way of Kings musical and gives us the secret to hot naps while Emily resorts to physical violence.
Episode 09: The Way of Kings: Chapters 22-24: Fancy Float
In Chapters 22-24 We get to meet another Kholin...NAVANI. Why does she make Dalinar so nervous? Elhokar can't keep his big, fat mouth shut, can he? And are the high princes just literally playing Monopoly?
Episode 10: The Way of Kings: Chapters 25-27: The City Lord Will Arrive After These Messages
Emily and Meg tackle chapters 25-27. Emily can’t keep her fantasy dads straight, CONSPIRACY THEORIES ABOUND, Kaladin is in Suuuuper denial and Emily did NOT fart live on camera.
Episode 11: The Way of Kings: Chapter 28 & The Interludes: Oh, ho ho, the ECONOMY
Happy Thanksgiving Everybody! Come take a turkey break and listen to us talk about chapter 28 + the Interludes. Dalinar’s men are a little TOO loyal, Emily reveals her OTP, and listen - Emily doesn’t have TIME for all this nonsense. WHERE’S SZETH!?!?
Episode 12: The Way of Kings: Chapters 29-32: What a Cheerful Bridgecrew. It’d be a Shame if Something HAPPENED TO IT.
We read chapters 29-32 this week. SHALLAN IS BACK, Y’ALL…and hallucinating?!?! Gaz is only SLIGHTLY less awful, baby Kaladin gets a grown-up lesson, and EMILY FLAT OUT REFUSED TO READ THE LAST CHAPTER.
Episode 13: The Way of Kings: Chapters 33-36: If There’s No Body That Falls in a Forest, Did a Murder Really Happen?
We read chapters 33-36 this week! (Fair warning - there’s a 10 minute chunk where Emily’s audio gets a little crackly but then we fix it!) Shallan is having second thoughts about her secret mission, Kaladin’s day LITERALLY COULD NOT GET WORSE, and Jasnah apparently favors a very…hands on method of teaching.
Episode 14: The Way of Kings: Chapters 37-40: Rock and a Haircut. Six Bits.
HAPPY 2022! WE MADE IT! Em and Meg start the year off with Chapters 37-40. It’s a little bit of a breather this week. Baby Kal goes to a tense dinner party, present-day Kaladin wrestles with brain lies, and does Shallan and her future father-in-law Dalinar have something in common?
Episode 15: The Way of Kings: Chapters 41-44: Freaked Out by Flirting
This week we discuss chapters 41-44. Abandon hope all ye who enter here, says Emily.
FULL STEAM AHEAD, says Meg
Episode 16: The Way of Kings: Chapters 45-47: Adolin Kholin is NOT Jesus
We get right into it and go through chapters 45-47. Kabsal knows better than to pay an artist in exposure. Kaladin cheats a Kholin. And MEGAN LIED. Cenn DID come back!
Episode 17: The Way of Kings: Chapters 48-51: Jenny, READ THIS BOOK!
Meg and Emily cover Chapters 48-51. Jam gets Shallan into a pickle, Jasnah has a snack then takes it back, and Kaladin hits a 7 on a good-day scale.
Episode 18: The Way of Kings: Interludes 7-8 & Chapter 52: How to Get Hit With Bricks
Emily and Meg are BACK and reading Interludes 7,8,9, and Chapter 52. We learn more about spren. Megan still won’t tell Emily ANYTHING. RAFO is the word of the DAY. And Navani almost seduces Dalinar. (Should’ve listened to Yalb and tried one last time).
Episode 19: The Way of Kings: Chapters 53-55: That’s Alethkar’s ‘Hee-Haw’
Emily and Meg cover Chapters 53-55 where HOID PERSONALLY BETRAYS EMILY, we get to hear Sadeas’ final verdict on Dalinar’s involvement in the assassination attempt, and Emily would NEVER forget about Renarin and is MIGHTILY offended Meg would insinuate such a thing!
Episode 20: The Way of Kings: Chapters 56-59: A Terrible Way to send an Email
This week Emily and Meg read Chapters 56-59 (So. Many. Pages.) Megan uses a thought experiment to make Emily cry. Murder is wrong. Kaladin breaks zero bones!
Episode 21: The Way of Kings: Chapters 60-62: If It’s Too Good to be True and Quacks Like a Duck…
WELCOME back to our Way of Kings Coverage. Emily and Megan SPLIT this week’s HUMONGOUS episode and cover Chapters 60-62. Emily wants ALL the drama and betrayal but NOT for Renarin to be a MURDERER, Dalinar is too cool for school when he meets his hero Brandon Sanderson, and wow. This is one SPICY episode!
Episode 22: The Way of Kings: Chapters 63-65: EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
Emily and Meg read Chapters 63-65. Loyalties are tested. The Horner Pact is broken (again). And Emily’s reading and comprehension should be a lot better than it currently is.
Episode 23: The Way of Kings: Chapters 66-68: Kaladin What’s-His-Face
THE TOWER! THE TOOOOOOWER. We cover chapters 66, 67, 68 and get to SEE THE BRIDGEMEN IN ACTION BEING THE BEST THEY COULD EVER BEEEEEE! (Also, Sadeas should DIE). Stay tuned for a bonus bit at the end where Emily discovers what Kaladin REALLY looks like!)
Episode 24: The Way of Kings : Chapters 69-74: It’s the End of the Book as We Know It
It’s the END of Way of Kings! We finish the last chapters of the book: Chapters 69-74. This week someone DEFINITELY points at something and goes, “THAT’S a Voidbringer!”, Sadeas BASICALLY GETS AWAY WITH MURDER (WTH, BRANDON?), and Dalinar is the best. AGAIN. Was there EVER any doubt?
Episode 25: The Way of Kings: Interlude 01: Underwater Basket Weaving
Emily and Meg take a quick breather this week and reminisce over Book 1 of the Stormlight Archive. We go over Emily’s predictions, what she ACTUALLY thinks of the book, get to hear her list her top 3 favs and 3 LEAST favs of the book so far, and Meg announces some fun new stuff for our upcoming episodes!
Episode 26: Warbreaker aka Emily’s VINDICATION (x’s 2)
Our Warbreaker episode is FINALLY HERE! Emily and Meg are joined by honorary sibling and friend-of-the-pod: TED!

Episode 27: Words of Radiance: Prologue & Chapters 1-3: You’re MY Dum-Dum
Emily and Meg FINALLY get into WORDS OF RADIANCE. We cover the Prologue, and Chapters 1, 2, & 3. SO MUCH SPREN INFO. Literally NO ONE could keep it straight, but Jasnah gives it her all. Bridge Four gets matching tattoos and of COURSE Moash HAS to be the special one.

Oof, in what might be our longest episode yet Em and Meg dive into chapters 4-6. Kaladin takes his new position VERY seriously. His new brother, Adolin, is less than thrilled. Jasnah needs some SLEEP, Shallan! And Emily's not SAYING die, Moash, die, OKAY?

Clocking in at our BIGGEST and LONGEST episode yet...Meg and Emily compare and discuss Brandon's earliest published book (Elantris) with one of his newest publications (Tress of the Emerald Sea). Part 1 is our live recording from Dragonsteel with a LIVE AUDIENCE. (Audio on that is a little rough, but it was a live show and we had SO MUCH FUN with it!)
Meg and Emily later recorded our thoughts on Elantris and again on Tress, so this monster of an episode is really a 3-parter!
