About the Show
Blood and Ashes is a spoiler filled, chapter by chapter discussion of the Wheel of Time series of fantasy novels penned by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson.Join us, three middle aged dads, as we re-read the series and enthusiastically discuss all the best bits from each chapter. Do we know every single thing about the world of The Wheel of Time? No. Do we know half? Probably not. Does that stop us from wildly speculating and tapping into half faded memories from our teens? Definitely not!It's all just a good ol' time for anyone looking to relive the highs and lows of Rand's journey. Pull in!
