Monday, January 19, 2026 • Duration 01:17:32

While there are several climaxes in this book, the one that matters unfortunately made no sense.

A Court of Mist and Fury - Part 1

Tuesday, January 6, 2026 • Duration 01:19:21

Everyone's favorite fairy smut series is back! And this time with…less sex? And more PTSD?!

Note: due to the nature of fairy smut books, this episode contains discussions of sexual themes and situations. Use caution when playing out loud on the bus.

*Double note: * right at the top, Danylo mistaken describes the mode of fantasy communication that's used the Stormlight Archive, NOT the mode of communication used in the Mistborn series. It's important to him that you all know that he knows he was wrong.
