Shardcast: The Brandon Sanderson Podcast

Brandon Sanderson is on Shardcast! We're here to discuss some fandom stuff, and then we transition into full spoilers and Rhythm of War spoilers to talk about some big spoilers there. And yes, he DOES play Who's That Cosmere Character! Thank you for Brandon coming on and his publicist Adam for setting this up! This week we have Eric (Chaos), Ian (Weiry), Alyx (Feather), and of course, Brandon! The amazing meme of Magellan and Brandon is made by the absolutely wonderful Connor Chamberlain: https://www.reddit.com/r/Stormlight_Archive/comments/kxdrud/originally_posted_to_crem_but_people_have_told_me 00:00 Intro and Non-spoilery Questions 25:27 RoW and Cosmere Full Spoilers 1:36:12 Who's That Cosmere Character?

It's time for our second Rhythm of War Words of Brandon episode, this time with some Dawnshard stuff too! As always on these, there can be cosmere spoilers too. Also, we are weirdly efficient and this episode is shockingly short. What is this madness? Don't worry, you get some total nonsense on Cusicesh at the end. We have Eric (Chaos), Ian (Weiry), Evgeni (Argent), Grace (thegatorgirl), and Ben (Overlord Jebus) Rhythm of War WoBs 00:00 Dawnshard stuff 31:31 More RoW 42:02 More Dawnshard 1:02:36 Eric Bad At Fabrials 1:08:16 Who's That Cosmere Character? 1:16:10 Cusiceshcast 1:23:38 If you like our content, support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/17thshard For discussion, theories, games, and news, come to https://www.17thshard.com Come talk with us and the community on the 17th Shard Discord: https://discordapp.com/invite/bMAUS5c Want to learn more about the cosmere and more?

Even if the journey matters more than the destination, all things come to an end, and so this is our final Rhythm of Previews/Reviews. It's been really fun and we hope you've enjoyed it all! We're talking about the last arc in the book which has Dalinar and Jasnah, along with some Taravangian. The sweet animated wallpaper is from Cosmere.es, the Spanish fan site.

Turns out there have actually been quite a lot of Words of Brandon since our last episode on WoBs, so we gotta get back into it now. This is the first of two episodes catching us up. We open this one with some non-Rhythm of War stuff (though it does have older cosmere spoilers, of course), then we dig into Rhythm of War WoBs! We have Eric (Chaos), Ian (Weiry), Evgeni (Argent), Grace (thegatorgirl), and Ben (Overlord Jebus)! 00:00 Non-RoW Words of Brandon 28:44 RoW Spoilery stuff 1:29:15 Who's That Cosmere Character If you like our content, support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/17thshard For discussion, theories, games, and news, come to https://www.17thshard.com Come talk with us and the community on the 17th Shard Discord: https://discordapp.com/invite/bMAUS5c Want to learn more about the cosmere and more?

This time on Rhythm of Reviews, we are looking at Venli and her flashbacks! Though we get on a huge amount of tangents, like Axindweth and Stoneshaping. But there's totally some Venli too! We also talk about Rlain. Next week will be our final Rhythm of Reviews, with Dalinar, Jasnah, and Taravangian, and closing thoughts!
