So many things in the Cosmere make sense now, with these WoBs; especially Spook's current identity. My mind (NOT MY BACK, BRANDON) was blown. I guess I should've seen it coming, with all the hints and foreshadowing, but I'm not that smart.

At 7:35, about the black dress; I hadn't noticed this at all. My mind was blown like everyone else's.

Good job @Comatose!

Just dropping by to say I love this new podcast and I'm here for it.

Great episode!

Had a laugh at 2:13:53:

"This character had a bad accident with their staff."

Every non-Australian on the show: Stuff? Staff?

At 1:39:12: I was a bit confused; wasn't the dock registrar a cultivationspren? I could've sworn he was. He reminded me a lot of Wyndle in some ways.

@Overlord Jebus

Is a poop deck really what I think it is?

From 23:20 to 23:30: I was jogging outside with my earphones on, and started looking around for a dog chasing me.

We are from different parts of the UK. I was born up north but moved down south when I was young, meaning I have a weird in-between accent (I also watched a lot of American TV growing up and that definitely had an affect). Lucy has a more Cambridgeshire accent as that is where she is from.

Thanks, this is very interesting! Both accents are lovely, by the way.

1. Are you guys from different parts of the UK (or even different neighborhoods)? I'm not familiar enough with the different accents to know if this is a regional thing (or even a neighborhood thing). But I did notice the Overlady does some th-fronting whereas the Overlord does not. Ex.: from 19:30 to 20:30, Ben says "theory" "things in threes", and Lucy says: "fing of frees feory" ("thing of threes theory"). She also says "ovver" (for "other"), "fink" ("think") etc.

2. You guys recreating the Azish's progressively more intense reactions to Dalinar's gifts reminded me of this wonderful bit of sports commentary (downhill biking; warning: some "foul" language):

3. That discussion at the end reminded me of the Bechdel-Wallace test. The Stormlight Archive isn't a movie and given its scope, it'd be hard for it to fail the test (it's such a low standard anyway).

"Galinar", "Davilar", etc. Can't wait until the Overlady meets Elhokar's son.

Great improvement on pronunciation!

@59:10: So so so scandalous (as Brits you probably heard it on the radio years ago:

Adolin killing Dalinar and his own child (did I get that right?), Renarin bonding the 9 Unmades and becoming Odium's champion... these are some spicy theories.

Is this the official recipe for one of the pancakes?

Urithulu, Taravangee... LOL

Another Uniqlo X Evangelion t-shirt. Maybe I ought to give the reboot another chance.

I had forgotten about Jix as well.

Perhaps the Overlady is going to attract cultivationspren with this one.

It is said as "tin" in the audiobooks.

Thanks! I was genuinely asking.

I know not to take my pronunciation cues from the Overlady ("Djash Ker-... the place where Shallan's from"), but at 50:13 the Overlord himself said "Tyne", so I wasn't so sure anymore.

I'll chalk it up to:

- Jebus not being a pronunciation nazi;

- the need for humans to use the same language to communicate properly (and marriage is about compromise, I've been told);

- the need for the conversation to go smoothly;

- the need to maintain a favorable environment for some of these surprising and hilarious pronunciations to keep coming up.

Is Tyn really pronounced that way (rhyming with "pine")? I didn't know.

@Overlord Jebus, great shirt once again.

Soooo many questions in a cover.  Love it.

Like: "Where's Waldo Maya?" I've scanned the drawing but couldn't find her. Help?

 I love how the plants seem to be following patterns.

Speaking of patterns, where is he?

@25:50: Llarimar = "Llama"

@30:08 Susebron = "Subaru" (Confidence in motion )

At this point I expected "Pancake" instead of Pahn Khal.

 I'm going off the rails on a Shardcast train

You would be thinking correct  I think you're the first person to notice so far 

Ha! There's few things I've obsessed over in my life, but the 90s NGE series is definitely one of them. What a show!

@Overlord Jebus I think I see Sachiel on your shirt pocket.

This part cracked me up:

Quote

 

-...Lord Luthadel.

- Ehhh... Lord...?

 

[pause]

- I don't know!... Daddy! Daddy!

- Oh! Daddy! ...Straff Venture.

 

For a minute there I thought she was referring to the Lord Ruler.

They just argue about what is relevant to assume, is all. Most axioms are not argued about, but axiom of choice is.

Ok, that makes sense: all is right with the world.
