The podcast is great; lots of information and they are very funny together. I do wonder if Brett fears for himself after some recordings with how Dani takes offense and becomes upset over debating topics in a fictional work. She loves to speak out of two sides of her mouth - “how can Rand make...Read full review »

The ultimate best company to read The Wheel of Time saga!
Wagner de Moraes via Apple Podcasts · Brazil · 11/23/24
The podcast is great; lots of information and they are very funny together. If only Dani knew she was allowed to read the book without being offended by any of the blunders the women make. I managed to read the books and when Rand and Perrin make mistakes I don’t scream at the page over how the...Read full review »

I normally don’t write reviews, but I’ve never identified with someone more about not caring about Elayne’s campaign for mayor. This show is awesome and really helps you pick up on details you would otherwise miss. Also, they must watch the same tv shows as me and husband because their jokes and...Read full review »

I’ve finished the saga, but was reluctant to leave the world behind. I didn’t really want to reread the entire series as I needed to move on to other books. Enter The Wheel Weaves. Dani and Brett are so funny and I love their ad lib of what is going on. They simplify the at times dense reading....Read full review »

I started a reread of the series not too long ago and stumbled across this podcast at about the same time. Listening to the podcast is lots of fun (love the hosts), and has greatly deepened my understanding and appreciation of the books.

I’ve read these books for years and for the longest time thought I was the only one. Finding your podcast and listening to you steadily fall in love with the story and the community has been a real pleasure. I can’t believe we’re approaching the end. What am I going to do?
Mara Acoma via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/22/24
I’ve been throwing on this podcast while I do my first read through. While I’m reading faster than I can listen, the level of detail Dany and Bret go into without spoiling anything is super helpful despite me now being a whole book ahead from where I am listening. They thoughtfully connect dots...Read full review »

This is such an awesome podcast! Dani and Brett point out things that I would have missed, and are so good at analyzing this series, and make even the most boring chapters interesting! If you are new to this series, definitely try it out! It’s the best!

I stated listening to this podcast as a first time reader. It has been so helpful at picking up little clues I’ve missed and explaining some things that were confusing. I love the dynamic of Dani and Brett. Brett thank you for helping me come to some great predictions. Dani I really don’t know...Read full review »

I started reading the WoT series in 2021. I had a big break between books at some point and when I was ready to get back into it I felt like I had forgotten everything that happened. I considered getting the audio books of the previous books to listen to in tandem with my current read but...Read full review »

Daily routine is read a chapter at night, listen to the podcast on the chapter I read during next days run rinse and repeat! This has been an awesome companion with great insight into what I may have missed and into throwbacks from previous books that I will not have remembered. Also with a small...Read full review »

Love love love the podcast...!!! As a first time reader myself, listening to a complex book like WoT with thousands of charecters. I can't imagine the listening to the books without this podcast. Dani and Brett do such an amazing job of breaking down each chapter and bringing up the sometimes...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to this podcast while reading the series, and it’s helped so much! So many times, they’ve pointed out things that I would have otherwise missed. Plus, they deliver the content in such a fun and entertaining way, frequently putting a smile on my face. Really appreciate the...Read full review »

The longer the this podcast goes on the less I like it. Dani seems to like the books and the story less and will frequently rant about what she hates. The hosts drink quite a bit which I think some listeners enjoy but I do not. Dani hates prologues and epilogues. In episode 1108 she goes on an...Read full review »

I love this podcast because of the two hosts entertaining and informative back and forth. I’m reading the series for the first time and I love listening to the podcast to make sure I’m following the intense story. Great job! Thanks.
Sheila Loo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/24
Starting this epic series was initially daunting. Prior to WOT, the only long-form fantasy I’d read were Harry Potter,—OK, I’ll take a shot!—The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, and A Wrinkle in Time. I started listening as I finished book 2, and I LOVE how your show helps me process and more...Read full review »
ReviewBySarah via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/29/24
This pod is so much fun to listen to bc as a lover of the books, it’s sad to not ever be able to read it for the first time again. Listening to Dani react and speculate brings me so much joy. I’m doing my current ‘reread’ by just listening to the podcast. I recommend it to everyone!
Samalamadingdong via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/26/24
This is my absolute favorite WoT podcast and is the perfect companion for anyone reading the series for the first time (or even on a re-read). Dani and Brett break down all of the intricate details of RJ’s writing and focus in on key points that are easily missed. They also remind you of...Read full review »

A perfect companion while experiencing The Wheel of Time books for the first time or if you’re in the aftermath of finishing the series. It’s an amazing journey to follow along with Dani and Brett. A truly wholesome pair of hosts to listen to while they deep dive into the world Robert Jordan has...Read full review »

Great wheel of time podcast, Dani and Brett are the best hosts. Dani has the excitement of a first time reader you wish for and Brett cracks me up love your fun facts. Keep up the good work!
LewallyA via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/13/24
Brett and Dani are extremely entertaining as they follow the of Wheel of Time, book by book, chapter by chapter--all spoiler free. Sometimes, the books are so exciting I read them too fast and when finished I am somewhat confused about certain points. Brett and Dani cover every plot twist,...Read full review »

As a first time WoT reader going in completely blind, this podcast is amazingly helpful. Also I love the hosts so much 😁

Finished the series in September and I missed the characters, but luckily stumbled across this amazeballs podcast. As the headline indicates I sorta kinda definitely probably love this podcast. Brett is delightfully nerdy and Dani is just hilarious. Best podcast out there and it’s made me edit my...Read full review »

I started reading WoT around June 2023 and it was fantastic being able to read the same chapter(s) covered by Dani and Brett immediately afterwards. They often provided clarification on things that confused me and I have absolutely loved Dani’s predictions. Some I had made myself, some I...Read full review »

Reading Wheel of Time feels like hanging out with best friends; listening to this podcast feels like listening in on the fun, insightful conversation of two more. I love it. I’m on my third re-read of the book series, but Dani and Brett’s discussions still help me notice key facts and nuances...Read full review »

I read the Conan books in the 80’s, followed RJ into WOT and I’ve read the series through several times. I’m enjoying Dani and Brett’s discussion as much as any read through. I’m shocked by how much I missed while reading! Great job with this, and Kudos to both sides of the discussion. I can’t...Read full review »

The best podcast for first time readers. They are a lot of fun. Dani is a great fellow first time reader and Bret is an awesome guide. They have transformed the experience of reading this series from just that to a whole journey that I’ll never forget.

Wonderful podcast. Excellent hosts with a perfect blend of first time reading with long-time knowledge. If you’ve just started reading the Wheel of Time (like I have), this is THE podcast to listen to, especially if you don’t know anyone who is also reading it, and want a debriefing on all of the...Read full review »

It pains me to leave such a low review when I really enjoyed this podcast for a long time, but I just had to stop during the 10th book, Knife of Dreams. It was great getting more insight into the story because they kept tabs on all characters and various plot points to make sense of it all. But...Read full review »

I’ve been listening since I started reading book 5 and it’s been an amazing companion. The hosts are hilarious, it makes the books much easier to follow and much more fun. My enjoyment of the series at least doubled once I started listening to this podcast.
Bliz1002 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/23
You might think that me quoting Tina Turner is a reach but I can guarantee you it is absolutely not. This is by the best podcast I’ve heard by far ! Now, the wheel of time is an amazing series but reading along with Dani and Brett has made this such a fun experience! Even the so called “slog”...Read full review »

My week is not complete without at least one episode of Dani and Brett. They have such a fun dynamic, and I love Dani’s takes as she reads. #Bingeworthy ~ @zuuldanalou on Discord and @danaLou_who on Twitter

I’ve been following for three years and enjoy every episode. I’m currently reading along through Knife of Dreams and enjoy the discussion and analysis. Keep up the fun facts and please make your Aes Sedai notebook downloadable to help the rest of us first timers!

Love Brett’s fun facts and Dani’s predictions are amazing. Just such an amazing take on the series so far. I’m up to book 5 with you guys and it’s been amazing.

I’ve been following along with the podcast for my entire WOT journey. I’ve never ready any book/series in this format, and I absolutely love it. This podcast allows me to explore all the depth and lore of the WOT universe. I’m just about to start Lord of Chaos, and my only regret is that I’m...Read full review »

Love this podcast. Funny. Informative. Huge help in connecting the dots in a fantasy world with so many characters and nations. Only complaint, please edit out the gagging sounds the female host makes after taking a shot. Those are super cringy.
joejoerant via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/23/23
Five stars for SURE! Absolutely love this podcast! I’ve read WoT countless times but my partner is only just getting into it now. It’s been great to listen along to Brett and Dani (sorry if I muck up the spelling!) going through exactly the same thing! Love Dani’s wild predictions and love...Read full review »

I enjoy this podcast very much! I have discovered it only recently and now binge listen to this as if it was an actual audio book.

I just finished the series but I had come across this podcast when I was on book 3 and LOVED IT!

As someone who has read the entire series, it’s exciting to listen to someone who hasn’t read it!! To get the perspectives and thoughts on what is going to happen next!! Keep up the good work!

I’ve been following this podcast for a few years now, and WHOA! These two (Dani and Brett) are awesome!

Long time huge fan of the wheel of time, have read the books many times but even so coming back and reading through them again and hearing Dani and Brett discuss them has been really lovely, getting to experience them as new again through Dani’s eyes (voice?) has been so great - and there’s been...Read full review »
