Show notes

Things keep happening! We got the prologue for the Dawnshard novella, so we discuss that some, and then it occurred to us that we haven't talked about Words of Brandon in forever. There was even an event in the before-times of February! Also, a bunch of stuff from the livestreams. Next time we'll have more Words of Brandon, too! Our cast today is Eric (Chaos), Ian (Weiry), Evgeni (Argent), and Marvin (Paleo). This episode is edited by the lovely Feather, who is just the best.
