great detail

breaking down king like flecks of mica on a Boulder uh oh watch out for the bear

You say true, I say thank you.

The hosts go into great detail for the books they're covering and analyze the text as well as give their thoughts on it.

Excellent podcast!

Scott and Matt are awesome. I'm not that into podcasts in general, but this came up as a recommendation after I listened to one of TDT titles for the umpteenth time. I return to the series from time to time just to hang out with the Ka-tet. This podcast was a delightful discovery and I binged the 1st season. Listening to them deconstruct and discuss TDT was so much fun and more than a little enlightening. They illuminate aspects I'd never picked up before on during my many, many trips to the Tower and I now see it in new ways. Give these guys a listen. They're smart, insightful and funny. Scott's love for the series mirror my own and I love experiencing it vicariously through Matt who's on his first trip. I've got a long way to go to catch up to them in real time but these back episodes proved to be real gems.

loving it so far guys!

listening to more as I type. Unless one of them whispers 19 I to Nort's ear and they go instantly insane, I have high hopes. If that does happen, I have even higher hopes.

Obsessed!

This is one of my favorite books of all time! I’ve already shared with friends! Thank you guys for this deep dive discussion !! I’m currently on my second time reading the series completely through so this is so fun !!! Now I want to just keep pace with you guys !
