Welcome back! Apologies for the two month absence, things got a little busy.  We're interrupting our series on Time of Contempt to cover the new season of the Netflix series! Join us while we chat our immediate take on the series as a whole with full spoilers for all seasons, games and books. After this we'll be covering the series episode-by-episode.
Welcome back! this week we get into the second chapter of Time of Contempt - essentially, The Witcher's version of the Stranger Things mall episode. It's a fun slice of life, except tinged with war, racism, classism, and facing the horror of killing.  cn: racism, genocide, violence
Welcome back! This week, we finally get started on Time of Contempt! Join us for discussion of Eist Tuirseach: Wife Guy, Geralt's questionable fundraising activities, and why Aplegatt is the best minor character in the Witcher canon.
Welcome back! This time, we're discussing the second half of the Netflix anime film The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf! Join us for chat about Vesemir's distrust of dark-haired sorceresses and why Witchers are like the carbon tax.   cn: violence, genocide
Welcome back! We are thrilled to bring you our first episode about Nightmare of the Wolf, the Netflix anime based on an original story and some of the properly new Witcher content in years. Join us for a chat about lore, castle design, and bath scenes.   Note, we don't go too heavily into it but as with our other non-mainline episodes this one does get into spoiler territory.
Welcome back! A wee break in our progress through the books today as we talk about some of the recent developments in the growing universe of Netflix's Witcher adaptation
Welcome back - we did it! We've finished Blood of Elves/three whole books since the first season of the show aired. Join us for a full-spoilers episode where we discuss worldbuilding, the larger themes of the book as a whole, and why you should definitely get statutory sick pay when you go through the trial of the grasses.   cn: sexual assault, rape, illness
Welcome back! After much delay, some moving and summer holidays, we finally bring you the thrilling (or, really, relatively calm) conclusion of Blood of Elves. Join us for coming of age, found family, and chill vibes.   tw: gendered slurs, transphobia, sexual assault
Welcome back! A slightly shorter one than usual this week as we round out the second half of chapter 6. Still plenty to enjoy as we discuss how Geralt is parenting goals and Philippa is.... terrifying.   cn: ableist language, torture
And we're back! Apologies for the interruption in the schedule - a data storage issue meant we needed to re-record this episode. This time, we're doing something a little different and only looking at half of episode 6 as Sapek wrote a ridiculously long chapter. Join us for chat about the nature of violence, rulership, and possibly upsetting every fandom on the internet.
Welcome back! We couldn't have known when we recorded it that this episode would be released on Earth Day but, coincidentally, topics of discussion include: the ecological niche of monsters, climate change, and water pollution. Join us for a dizzying mix of high fantasy and environmental philosophy!
