I was just listening while working and I heard Court of Owls and have to recommend. I do think there are several other better Batman stories, but the art and paneling of that run is so good. I haven’t collected comics for years, but I kept the labyrinth chapter of that run and it is my favorite chapter of any sort of visual story ever. I’ve never felt so immersed in a chapter and that interaction with the reader is one of the beautiful things I’ve ever seen in physical medium. Other than that chapter my other favorite thing is the cover stories in One Piece. I wish that form of storytelling, where the reader interacts with the pages, was more common, but I think it would need the right types of circumstances.
Always bittersweet when I come to the end of another CWN episode, I try to drag them out as long as possible hahaha. This was so fun, you and Matt just have such a great dynamic (also love your friendship origin story). Would love to see him come back on if he reads First Law to give reactions!! Thanks for the entertainment ;))
Loved this episode! Just wanted to say that Bend The Knee is a very therapeutic and special podcast for me. I love y’all’s chapter discussions of the Asoiaf books. Love the theories. The tinfoil hat theories. Everything. I listened to those episodes on deployment on repeat. Can’t wait for yalls HoTD season 2 episodes!
I also get mad at my past self regarding book obligations. The curse of the mood reader, am I right?! The Way of Kings is going to be a good time! I’m happy you’ll be joining us 😆
@@thefantasynuttwork Well, this is embarrassing. This comment was meant for another video 😂 It must have loaded the next video and I didn’t notice 😂 But thank you for a replying to a seemingly weird and out of context comment 😂😂😂 I’m so embarrassed 🫣
So what happened with the Dune audiobook is really weird - they did a full cast but they did the abridged version. Then when Audible took it over, they wanted to do an unabridged version, but rather than rehire everyone to do just random bits of dialogue, they got Simon Vance to do the rest of it - so he does random bits of dialogue from multiple characters. Weird choice, never seen it done any other time before
Dark Knight Returns is great especially as we see Frank Miller begin to develop the Sin City art style, and its pre-911 so he hadn't lost his mind yet. I'm surprised you haven't read it yet, the aged hero going on one last hurrah.
Great episode as always! Hope you change your mind about not streaming on your channel to chat HOTD this season (I always looked forward to tuning in every week last season) but totally understand it would be a lot to make videos for both channels every week! Will your chats on BTK be spoiler free for us who haven't read Fire and Blood?
I don't at all think ADOS will be easier to write for George. I don't think GRRM has the discipline to angle toward the ending (we saw how much he expanded the story in Feast/Dance), so after TWOW is out he probably won't have set himself up well to wrap things up in one book.
I am watching a podcast for a book series I have yet to read. How I got here I don't know. I have the book series on my might read list and the first two books on my shelf but I already saw the show so do I really need to read it?
@@thefantasynuttwork that's 2 episodes more than I think you'd ever try tbh 🤣 I love the show but I'll admit, when it's bad and/or cringe, few shows can match it haha
This gotta be the best chatting with nutts so far! Please bring Matt on more often. Also Dotrice is the fucking goat
Roy the boy!!

Appreciate that Esmay! Matt better like it or he’s getting banned

Love to hear that, thanks so much for listening!
At this point, I'm just trying to figure out if Winds will come out before Jimmy officially changes his name to "Jimbo R(ail) R(oad) Nuttgod"
Hahahahaha

Re: Dotrice bruh I can't with Peetire and Brain of Tarth. Dealbreaker 😂
Hahahahah honestly I get it, I’m just nostalgic 😂

Good ole Amazon

My favorite trope!

Yep!
Hey hey, Time For Wolves WAS the original title for ADOS!!!!
I thought it sounded familiar
@@thefantasynuttworkIt'd be sick if the book split of Winds ends up using ATFW for naming the second half
I don't at all think ADOS will be easier to write for George. I don't think GRRM has the discipline to angle toward the ending (we saw how much he expanded the story in Feast/Dance), so after TWOW is out he probably won't have set himself up well to wrap things up in one book.
One book I think is unlikely but he has sworn no more additional POVs and lots will be…. Eliminated lol

There’s always something to be gained from another form of storytelling
@@thefantasynuttwork good point
Yes.
Wait, when did you try Doctor Who? I was confident you wouldn't but I need details, Jim 😂
I’ve watched like 3 random episodes and it’s not for me lol
@@thefantasynuttwork that's 2 episodes more than I think you'd ever try tbh 🤣 I love the show but I'll admit, when it's bad and/or cringe, few shows can match it haha
I hate Roy 😂 I am with the booktube community. His narration is just so boring imo
😂
