Fantasy for the Ages

Jim (Father) and Zach (Son) talk about their ideas and perspectives on fantasy fiction, starting with Robert Jordan"s The Wheel of Time series but straying in various other directions as well. The generational difference in how they view what they read will become obvious (and entertaining, they hope!). Come enjoy our debates and explorations over what all these books mean, and see who you agree with.

The Witcher is now a wildly popular fantasy TV series on Netflix. But before that, it was a popular video game series (still is), and before that, a successful and rich fantasy fiction series. Zach and Jim welcome guest friend (and big Witcher fan) Brendan on to the show to discuss all of this. Can you enjoy just the TV series, or are you missing out if you don't read the books and/or play the games? How does the show compare the to the books, the games? Does it matter?

Finally, finally, Mat and Thom make it to Caemlyn, where Mat should be able to easily deliver that letter from Elayne, allowing him to move on to the finer things of life: gambling, drinking, and flirting. Of course, we're talking Matrim Cauthon here - it clearly can't be THAT simple. In fact, Mat really steps into it here, and we have the launchpad for MUCH of his story arc the rest of the series. Wow. Enjoy!Join us on Discord: https://discord.gg/jMWyVJ6qKkSupport us on Patreon:
