Shardcast: More WoBs on Secret Project 4!

Our time with the Secret Projects is coming to a close for now, but we've got one last set of WoBs from Brandon's spoiler stream, all about Secret Project #4 and its implications for the wider Cosmere! Next week, it's finally coming: our reactions to Brandon's surprise reveal of the prologue to Stormlight Archive 5. 

Spoilers for all published Cosmere works, nothing is safe. 

This episode's cast is Eric (Chaos), Alyx (Feather), David (Windrunner), Marvin (Paleo), Veronica (Cheyenne), and Ala (Rasarr).
