Joe is out again this week, and I'm sorry because for some reason, Dac's audio ended up being a bit fuzzy in places. It didn't sound like that when we recorded, but the file did. Cleaned it up as best I could. Beyond that, a bit of interesting info popping up through these chapters, but for the most part they seemed like kind of positioning chapters, setting the stage for what's coming next. Hear what Dac and Jaymee thought about them on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Basically, some of our characters are really going through it this week. Shallan has ... well, Shallan problems. Like some of these things it's hard to imagine anyone but Shallan having to deal with. On the other hand, Teft has some really serious stuff happening, and the saddest part is, it's some very real stuff he's dealing with. And then there's Dalinar who has to deal with Lift, and we all know how tough that can be. See what the crew has to say about the tribulations on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Joe is out again this week, but we've got some big lore dumps to go over. When Brandon starts giving answers, he doesn't do it halfway. It's awesome!

Also, here's the Worldswappers website I mention during the wrap-up. Check it out if you're going to DSNX25 and want to participate: https://worldswappers.com/

We are 4 once again, and just in time for a really interesting flashback and some killer character stuff on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Some big things happening as we go from the end of part 1 to the beginning of part 2, but also, our first batch of interludes. I'm afraid we're going to be killing a certain hope that our crew has been cherishing since the end of the last book.

We come face-to-face with one of the Unmade, and it's ... a trip. Joe's still on hiatus, but the rest of the crew has thoughts.

Joe is absent for a bit, but we and the characters are learning some interesting stuff. Shallan's reaction to who really killed her brother? Unexpected but maybe not really? And young Dalinar seems to actually have some character development? Will wonders never cease.

This may be the last time for a while that we have the whole crew for the episode. So enjoy! It's time for Veil's big night on the town.
