Good & Evil in Randland

A show where we use Robert Jordans' Wheel of Time series and Characters to explore philosophy, ethics, gender dynamics, mythology, and above all narrative as a means of exploring ourselves and what it means to be human. Our host, Kelly Eaton, is a long time reader and fan of the series, while Lianna is a new reader. Lianna comes from a background of English Literature education at a university level while Kelly has been working in film production for nearly a decade. The series will be broken down into seasons, each of which will focus on a single book of Robert Jordan's epic fantasy series, each episode focusing on a specific theme our hosts have recognized and set out to explore further.   

In season 1, exploring The Eye of the World, the first few episodes began as a read along, but episode 5 made the transition to exploration of the following themes and how they relate to the real world and other art:

Ep. 5) General review of the book
Ep. 6) Personal Story and the formation of myth and legend
Ep. 7) Identity
Ep. 8) Friendship
Ep. 9) Gender Dynamics
Ep. 10) The Call of Duty and Responsibility
Ep. 11) Skill and Knowledge
Ep. 12) The Fate/Free Will Dichotomy
Ep. 13) The Architecture of Good/Evil
