Episode 150: Ash and Elm, Rot and Rust

Matt and Scad celebrate their 150th episode with a doozy of a selection of chapters from The Name of the Wind.  Kvothe hears that the Chandrian have appeared only one day prior and a mere afternoon’s ride away.  He drops everything, procures a loan for a horse and sets off to see evidence of this childhood faerie tale turned real life trauma.  When he arrives, Denna just happens to be the only survivor from the slaughter, and the two of them tour the scene of the crime together.  Also inside, we reminisce about our 150 episodes together and share some heartfelt and very touching listener feedback from the Khalasar.

The Davos’ Fingers podcast is spoiler free as we cover The Kingkiller Chronicle, so we will only cover that material up to and including the chapters discussed in this episode.  So listen in comfort knowing we will not spoil this book for first time readers!  But if you love the saucy speculation, join us for a special section at the end of the podcast called Devi After Dark, in which the spoilers will fly!

Lastly, we’d love to hear from you.  Sometimes we share listener emails sent to weardavosfingers@gmail.com on the cast and we frequently remark about engaging twitter conversations through the @davosfingers account.  So come find us and play!  We can also be found on facebook and bluesky with the same name, and if you are interested in sending a few bones our way, check out patreon at www.patreon.com/davosfingers.

Perhaps you are a visual person and would like to see all our weird facial expressions as we sift through KKC.  Ask and ye shall receive as our episodes are now all also on Youtube!:  https://youtu.be/UfI5D3Hooak
