The Sanderlanche Podcast

158 - Warbreaker - Chapters 30 - 32

Some cool backstory and an appearance by the infamous Sexy Drifter himself this week. Beyond that, though, there's some impatience among the crew to see some more Vasher and find out what that guy is up to. You'd think some Hoid would tide them over on mysterious guys running around the place, wouldn't you? Ah well, the theories are really heating up on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

157 - Warbreaker - Chapters 27 - 29

Our podcast crew is still antsy for some action, but they're going to have to settle for information. Some very interesting factoids coming out of a conversation between Siri and Lightsong, but the really juicy tidbits are from a brief glimpse of Vasher and Nightblood. See how the crew spins these bits of info into theories of gold on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

156 - Warbreaker - Chapters 24 - 26

Siri and the God King make some progress on his learning, while Vivenna and co. continue to make progress in their own way. The big thing, though, is Lightsong's storyline seems to be really kicking into gear, which is exciting for our podcast crew. Everything is moving along smoothly on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

155 - Warbreaker - Chapters 22 and 23

After I was gone for a week, we're back, and we've got a couple of talky chapters, but interesting conversations for all that. Even better, Lightsong actually gets a bit proactive, and the crew is all for it. All of this and our favorite horror movies on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

154 - Warbreaker - Chapters 17 - 21

The crew has been looking for some action, and they got ... well, SOME action and a cute zombie squirrel. So there's that. Vasher is back this week, up to some weird shenanigans. Secrets about the God King are revealed both to Siri and to us, and everyone is speculating left and right about what this could mean for the rest of the book on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

153 - Warbreaker - Chapters 13 - 16

Joe is back, and we've got some chapters centering mostly around a rather eventful session of the Court of the Gods. Siri is being presented to the Court. Vivenna is there to check things out, and it would appear so is Vasher. Meanwhile Lightsong is getting roped into some political intrigue ... unless of course he doesn't. It's hard to be sure with this guy. Is our podcast crew being drawn in by the narrative, or are they about ready to break things up with a bit of action? Find out on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

152 - Warbreaker - Chapters 8 - 12

Joe is out this week, but Jaymee, Dac and I have some interesting conversations about this section of the book. We're still in set up mode it seems like, but some interesting stuff is happening. 

151 - Warbreaker - Chapters 4 - 7

Our second episode of Warbreaker, and the crew is getting into some very deep theories already. It's interesting to see how their minds work with what Brandon has given them. Are they getting used to how he structures things and picking up on twists early, or will Brandon bamboozle them once again? You certainly won't find out for sure on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

150 - Warbreaker - Prologue and Chapters 1, 2, and 3

Starting a new book this week, and one I've been looking forward to for a while. The crew is thrown right into the deep end on this magic system and has a lot of thoughts as a result. Find out what they make of it all on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

149 - White Sand - Chapters 16, 17, and 18

We finish up White Sand. Hear the crew's overall reactions. I think it would be safe to use the word, "mixed." But this episode wraps up our foray into the world of graphic novels and preps us to go into Warbreaker on the next episode of The Sanderlanche!

148 - White Sand - Chapters 13, 14, and 15

In this, the penultimate episode of our White Sand journey, some interesting theories come out. The mysteries are beginning to take shape. The secret bad guys are coming out of the woodwork. Who knew there could be so many? That's this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

147 - White Sand - Chapters 10, 11, and 12

The crew is not wowed by the story thus far, nor by the very noticeable art change that happens in this section. Learning Khriss's backstory, though, is enough to keep the interest going. That and Trackt Ais, a surprising favorite on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

146 - White Sand - Chapters 7, 8, and 9

We begin book 2 of this 3-book graphic novel. Things are getting interesting. Alliances are made and deals are cut on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

145 - White Sand - Chapters 4, 5, and 6 + The Taldain System Essay

Continuing our exploration of this Cosmere graphic novel, the cast has arrived at the capital of Lossand, and what was a story about adventurers fighting in the desert becomes a tale of political intrigue and a young man being who has leadership suddenly thrust upon him... Or something like that. Magical sand go whoosh whoosh. The Sanderlanche, yo.

144 - White Sand - Prologue, Chapters 1, 2, and 3

Leaving Scadrial behind, we head to Taldain for the earliest moment in the as-yet-published Cosmere. A graphic novel featuring some new faces and one who we know in passing. Our podcast crew has a very different sort of adventure ahead of them on this one. See how they handle a new style of storytelling on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

143 - The Lost Metal - Epilogues 2 - 7

This is it, the end of The Lost Metal, the end of Mistborn Era 2, the end of the currently-published Mistborn content. We started the show almost 150 episodes ago with the first couple chapters of The Final Empire, and we've come a long way since then. In addition to looking at what happened in these chapters, the episode takes a little bit to look back on that whole journey. Find out how the crew feels about the Mistborn experience on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

142 - The Lost Metal - Chapter 72 - Epilogue 1

The end of the numbered chapters, and the end of someone we've grown very attached to in this era. See how everyone feels about the loss on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

141 - The Lost Metal - Chapters 65 -70

Wax and Wayne have it out with their doppelgangers, and then it's time to try and sort out this bomb business once and for all, though it may be tougher than they anticipated. Is it blasphemy or recycling? Find out on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

140 - The Lost Metal - Chapters 58 - 64

We start out with some quiet talk, some tough introspection, and then we move on to the wholesale slaughter of an entire army. So, you know, at least we've got some variety in this week's episode of The Sanderlanche.

139 - The Lost Metal - Chapters 50 - 57

Everyone is back this week, and we've got some fun shenanigans with Wax smashing motor vehicles, Moonlight turning into a glowing magic lady, and we've finally, 3 books after they disappeared, found the missing women. Huzzah! Here's where you really get lost if you haven't read Elantris, unlike the rest of us on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!
