Wowee what a book. Truly a pleasure to read and discuss with my good friends Jon and Lucas. Nothing to read for next week!#SamAndJon #Dawnshard #BookClub

Gosh dang it guys, we messed up. A whole lot of discussion has gone right down the drain and all that's here to replace it is me, Sam, monologuing for like 2 hours. This is certainly a mistake we'll be careful to never make again. On the bright side, Dawnshard is out! For next week, read it!#SamAndJon #Oathbringer #BookClub

And a Moash chapter! What a day. For next week, read chapters 49 through 57!#SamAndJon #Oathbringer #BookClub

Is this episode straight lines or planes that touch a curve or curved surface at a point, but if extended do not cross it at that point? Because tangents!#SamAndJon #Oathbringer #BookClub

What would you do? Kill all four? Let them all walk free? That's a bit of a toughie. Read from the Interludes through chapter 38!#SamAndJon #Oathbringer #BookClub

Really great reading this week guys. Past Dalinar knows how to entertain a guy. Read chapters 21 through 32!

It's Oathbringer time!For next time, read chapters 11-20!

Pancakes!

This is a long one! My apologies guys for hoarding these videos without uploading them for a while now. We've been recording them regularly, so I have a bit of a backlog I'll try to get caught up on by the time Dawnshard comes out.#SamAndJon #WoR #BookClub

Taravangian is back for the first time in a book and the end fast approaches!#SamAndJon #WoR #BookClub

Shared-trauma soup for the heart and soul.#SamAndJon #WoR #BookClub

It's all about stealing food and violently disrupting political hierarchies.#SamAndJon #WoR #BookClub

Recorded in the distant past, this episode comes to us only now in our time of greatest need. I love you. -Sam

Date going poorly? Just start talking about poop!

Shallan has made it to the Shattered Plains in style and begins her stay there by making quite the impression.Read Chapter 43 through 49 for next week!

Can we all just sit down and be honest with each other for like, 5 minutes? Please guys. I'm begging you.

You guys like books?

Sorry this one's up late! Also sorry it's a little on the long side... and about the singing... hmmFor next week, read up through chapter 24!

Dalinar has turned the whole world against him and faces potential assassin's around every corner. Shallan has lost her mentor and must make her way to the Shattered Plains with shifty slavers. And Kaladin has is worst of all. He's just not vibing ya know?

We're back with another great Brandon Sanderson book. Enjoy!

We finished the first book in the Stormlight Archives! And wow was it a good one. I can't wait to start the next!For next week, read up through chapter 4 of Words of Radiance.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ALPF6CDlCF6y3wy2CTG-ASam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

Dalinar and Kaladin are almost as cool as they are earnest. We're still not quite done with this book, but I already can't wait to start the next one!For next week, finish the book!YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ALPF6CDlCF6y3wy2CTG-ASam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

It was when the GENIE from Aladdin was talking about how he wouldn't bring anyone back from the dead. Thanks for listening!For next week, read up through chapter 69!YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ALPF6CDlCF6y3wy2CTG-ASam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

In this exciting selection we get to learn Wit's identity, take another peek into the past, and remain confused by every other thing Teft says. Thanks for listening!For next week, read up through chapter 62!Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ALPF6CDlCF6y3wy2CTG-ASam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

Kabsal does an oopsie. Shallan does an oopsie. Past-Kaladin does what I would consider to be an oopsie. And these are some next-level oopsies. I'm not talking about spilling milk. I'm not talking about putting Crem in Saddeus' food. I'm talking B I G oopsies.For next week, read up through chapter 56!YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ALPF6CDlCF6y3wy2CTG-ASam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

Sorry for my audio quality on this one. I stepped on my mic cable as we were getting started and something about the tug I gave it must have borked things. Ah well. That, aside, reading gets better and better! They said the quote! Does Jasnah know Shallan's plan? Who are these freaking bridgemen? If we keep getting questions and no answers, I'm not sure how I'll hold up.For next week, read up through chapter 51!Video: https://youtu.be/xMJNOjIXU-ISam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

Over half way through the book. Prior to this book club, I took kind of a long break from Brandon Sanderson (mostly). I read the entire Wheel of Time series (which he did finish mind you) and listened through almost all of Critical Role season 2, and now that I'm finally back in The Cosmere Zone, I'm wondering why I ever left! These books are so gosh darn good.For next week, read up through chapter 44!YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bA-Ufz3efV8Sam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

Let me start off by apologizing for the weird echo effect at the end of the podcast. We're still working out some of the kinks. And let me go on to say that wow! The Cosmere's overall lore is intimidating. I have a lot of books to reread if I want a chance at figuring this all out. Thanks for listening!For next week, read up through chapter 35!Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ALPF6CDlCF6y3wy2CTG-ASam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

The first reading where things aren't worse for Kaladin at the end than they are at the beginning! Hurray!Read through the end of Part 2 for next week!Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ALPF6CDlCF6y3wy2CTG-ASam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

Just how much gang is there? Here I was, under the impression that we had MET the gang, but then our name character count nearly doubles all in one go!Read through chapter 22 for next week!Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ALPF6CDlCF6y3wy2CTG-ASam's Twitter: https://twitter.com/SammilyWammilyJon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JonW_No_H

Just when you think things can't get any worse for Kaladin, they do like 5 more times. I am just dying for him to start turning things around. Make sure to read through chapter 15 by next Tuesday!

Oh boy oh boy. Can't wait to meet all these characters. The nostalgia is flowing through me, and having the perspective of some fresh eyes is super exciting. Join us for this glorified summary. And finish Part 1 by next Tuesday! See ya then!

Let's read some books! We're gonna kick this off by reading each of the three existing books in the Stormlight Archive series by Brandon Sanderson, then we'll move on to the fourth one just around when it's released. By next episode (next Tuesday) we're going to have read up through chapter 5, and then it's time to discuss!
