Hot Take Books
Hot Take Books by Rich and Ryan
24 episodes
1 day ago
🔥 We read Hot Books and give you Hotter Takes. 🔥 Welcome to the show where two friends—Rich and Ryan—dive into the best (and occasionally worst) of sci-fi and fantasy, one book at a time. Every title gets two episodes: a spoiler-free FastTake for the curious and a spoiler-filled deep dive for the chaos lovers. We skip the plot overviews and go straight for the good stuff: World Building & Lore, Characters, and Story—served with unfiltered opinions, spicy takes, and way too much banter. If you like book talk, laughs, passion, and the occasional nerdy meltdown, you're in the right place

Wind and Truth: Oaths, Therapy, and Other Coping Mechanisms

The spoiler walls are down, and the Radiants are on the couch. Rich and Ryan dig into Wind and Truth, Brandon Sanderson’s emotional (and occasionally chaotic) finale to Stormlight’s first arc.


Rich thinks he spoiled himself halfway through the read—turns out he didn’t—and Ryan brings the internet’s wildest one-star reviews to the table. From Adolin’s armor glow-up to Dalinar’s divine identity crisis and Kaladin’s full-blown therapy arc, the boys cover everything Sanderson threw at the wall.


It’s equal parts laughter, lore, and light emotional damage as they ask the big questions: Was the ending earned? Is “group therapy” the tenth Radiant order? And why does every Sanderlanche need a feelings montage?


Messy, heartfelt, and hilarious—just the way a Hot Take Books SpoilerTake should be.
