WOT on Prime (S1E2"Shadows Waiting"): A Golden Age of Television - a podcast by Gus and Ali

from 2021-11-24T15:00

:: ::

As the episodes of THE WHEEL OF TIME show release, Ali and Gus will be bringing their experience in the entertainment industry to the table to do an analysis of the adaptational choices made in the process of bringing THE WHEEL OF TIME from the page to the screen.

These episodes are broken into three categories:

1) "I am a show-only fan" - folks who have never picked up a WHEEL OF TIME book can listen to the first (and by far longest) part of our episodes, where we analyze the adaptation insofar as it covers what it has already covered in the books.
2) "I am a Wheel Takes listener" - folks who are current with our book discussion episodes can continue into our second section, where we discuss the long-term logic behind (and ramifications of) choices made by the adaptation as far as Ali has gone in the series.
3) "I'm fully spoiled" - folks who have finished THE WHEEL OF TIME can stick around for brief thoughts from Gus on the logic behind (and ramifications of) choices made by the adaptation from a fully spoiled perspective.

Material covered in this episode: Season 1, Episode 2 - "Shadows Waiting"

Part 1 of our discussion covers events portrayed through THE EYE OF THE WORLD, Chapter 20, but does NOT spoil any distinct show mysteries.

Part 2 of our discussion contains SPOILERS through LORD OF CHAOS Chapter 4

Part 3 of our discussion contains SPOILERS through (at least ) A MEMORY OF LIGHT Chapter 37

Part 2 begins at 1:30:54. Part 3 begins at 1:57:51. The epilogue begins at 2:00:35

ERRATA: Mat is not singing in the Old Tongue at the beginning of the "weep for Manetheren" song.

80% of movies lose money. The statistic Ali was remembering was for independent films - 90% of independent films lose money.
