Sorry I missed submitting, you guys are seriously so deserving of all the success in the world. You guys are highly entertaining as usual, keep up the amazing work!!!
Thanks a bunch man 🥲
Austin picking my favorite Sanderson novel as his underrated book. I am back on team Austin officially until the end of time (AKA until the next time he does something to piss me off).
😁😞
Or literally cook any food
I like how Austin pulled a Darrow on his roommate Justin/Cassius by reading/training in the shadows
😂😂
Don't Starve Together is one of my favourites.
EDIT: Was so happy when you guys both said Dalinar's quote.
EDIT2: I could murder a curry...
Huge congrats! Very well deserved.
Thank you!!
Yay!! Love this video! Thanks for answering my question!
👊
Well done on 10k! Much love chaps
Thankyou!!
Congrats for the 10k guys ❤
Thank you ‼️
Such a great podcast, congrats guys, well done
Cheers, thank you!!
Congrats guys seriously my favorite booktube channel - Also I just bought Malice going to read it after Light Bringer. I see you have the whole series on the shelf
Thanks so much. The faithful and the fallen series is really fun. Great twist on the chosen one trope.
Great video guys! That was awesome to listen too and it didn’t even feel like 2+ hours
What a compliment-thank you!
Congratulations on the 10k! Found you after having read Red Rising. I had the exact same enthusiasm about book 1 as Austin (best book of the series btw. Much better than Morning Star)
You are brilliant! Keep doing what you are doing
Cheers - real glad you found us and share that love. Appreciate the support 🥂
CONGRATS ON 10k!!!
THANK YOU!! 🙏
Ahhhh 38:51. Rich, I am the same. I went through several migraine level headache filled Saturdays for me to figure out it was my caffeine addiction that was ruining my weekends. I've finally gotten myself completely off of caffeinated coffee, but I still drink 6+ cups of decaf coffee every day. It's a problem... but a tasty one!
I've been here since the beginning. Thanks for the great content!🎉
Thanks so much Dakota 🙏🙏
I recommend reading the Elfstones of Shannara if you want to give one of the books a shot. They all are pretty self-contained from the few I’ve read and Elfstones was definitely my favorite
I Found you guys through Jimmys channel pretty recently. Been watching your back log of videos and I really love your camaraderie, everything comes off really authentic. I hope we can see more interviews on the channel because you both have a great interview style. I will definitely be an avid watcher from now on and I hope you guys keep up the good work!
Awesome!! Howd you find us through Jimmy channel, just through recommended videos? And absolutely plan to have more guests on - appreciate the ecouragement!
@@2ToRamble He actually mentioned you in his last chatting with nutts (altleast I think it was that video)
@@calvinstarr5228 thats awesome!!
We’re definitely fans keep up the good work!!
Thankyou bros!
You guys deserve all growth and more. Only booktubers I watch anymore
Damn you and your kindness. Thank you 🥲
@@2ToRambleAnytime. Also berserk is bloody amazing and I would recommend it to anyone who loves fantasy/dark fantasy
Austin I'm glad you said you like Minecraft, because I've been slowly going through your podcasts on books I've read while playing minecraft. Congrats on (now) 16.2 thousand subscribers. Love your channel.
Such a great game 👊. Thanks for watching our stuff!
Congrats on 10k subs!!!
Thank you!!
YES everyone should read Red Rising! I just finished Light Bringer last night and am so emotional!
Richard- We love Person of Interest too!
I really could murder a curry! Not had one for ages 😂
The book id bring with on a desert island is a book on how to build a boat
Sorry I’m so late to the party, but I’m just finding you guys! Took a long break from reading and the wheel of time has got me back into it! Love y’all’s content and have a ton of books to catch up on! I CAN MURDER SOME CURRY!!!!
🤝👊👊
A large video with chapter by chapter discussion does sound interesting😳. Also with Jade City the book is super super slow until a certain thing happens. Even after that its a slow burn series, its definitely a grower that you find yourself thinking about a lot after finishing it. Im shocked its so highly recommended because it seems like such a niche vibe to me. Im in the middle of Jade Legacy and the last book is so good it’s ridiculous.
Dont encourage Rich 😂
Literally so many of the minutes of this podcast is what you were telling me in Iceland 😆 what a review
🙌
Just started the shadow rising. Exited to see how it plays out
Wow I can’t believe you guys haven’t read schythe it’s and amazing series plus very short I would love to see you guys read and speak about them in the future
"It depends." I'm cry laughing hahaha you guys are hilarious! Loved the Q&A! So cool that you went to Iceland, one day you should come to New Zealand, I'll be your Lord of the Rings tour guide :)
I (austin) was in New Zealand and did the LOTR tour and oh my - nothing will ever, ever top it. EVER. But Richard and I are determined to make the trip out there together in the far future 🫡
@@2ToRamble haha oh wow thats amazing! Yes you guys totally should!
46:27 gotta read it. Fantastic series. I liked it about as much as Red Rising
You know how to capture my attention 👀
With regards to the two most mentioned series on this episode, I’m starting the Lightbringer b1 Graphic Audio before I read Morning Star. Really recommend the Red Rising Graphic Audio if you ever reread it, the main va is amazing and fits so well.
I really need to listen to more graphic audios, they seem awesome
Congrats guys! Also don't think it was covered in the video but I was curious, how old are both of you?
We are both 25 years young.
Congrats, guys! I would love to see you two reading some romance.
Richard I'll eat a steak with you anytime. Austin's recreation of the first bite has me convinced it'll be the best meal of the year.
01:29:29 Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is perfect. I've watched it from start to finish a few times. Still haven't watched the other Fullmetal Alchemist show though. lol
It’s so amazing
you DNFed Jade City??😧 (honestly, understandable. It's hard to get into the series but damnnnn once you are!!!! It's mind blowing. I remember giving the first book 4 stars upon first read, but the trilogy as a whole is currently my favorite fantasy series. Hilo is such an interesting character. Hope you give it a second chance.)
This may be one of the series I (austin) start reading and can convince Richard eventually
First of all, love the socks and the dark green sweater.
Second, nvm yall reviewing manga (I would love to see it), what I need is Richard doing a let's play video series for Don't Starve Together. Its one of my all time fave games to watch and it would be even funnier if you two play it together! (even if Austin said he doesn't play anymore 😊).
Third... forget WoT, Austin, how is the book going 🤣🤣🤣
All love for yall, hope Richard's book will be written sometime soon too.
Books are a WIP - we have our 25k q and a coming soon and can expand on more there!
Yes, Andross is my favorite as well. Or, is he the real hero. lol
👀👀
Damn man! Can't believe i missed this.
🥲
Read Malazan!
so sick. there was a tab about what u guys do wfor work but i think it got a little muddled. mind me asking what u guys do? thanks for answering my q!!
Yea I realized we missed that after finishing the video damnit (the last page or so there were a few duplicate questions so we skipped over some and must’ve missed that one)
- Richard is a systems engineer
- Austin quit his job (was in data field) this year to go full time into the pod and writing
Wouldve loved to fully answer this on the video but long story short - Rich and I were plateauing with the channel and wanted to give it our all so Rich came to me and pitched he’d fund living expenses if I could carry the load and see how far we can get the Pod by the end of the year and then see where we’re at financially to whether I need to get a full-time job again and put the channel on the side. So as much as we hate eachother viscerally we’re pretty much 100% in this together for better or worse 😆
Hope that answers the question!
So glad I came across this q&a! Been wondering what y’all did.
Are y’all going to do a vid on this, as we are about to head into the new year?
P.S. super cool to see this vid came out 4 months ago and are now at 19K subs. Congrats!!
P.P.S. already got rid of tiktok… but always down to murder some curry
Delete tiktok!! Took my a couple days to finish but finally made it, keep up the great work guys
Appreciate it as always Matt 🫡
Found your channel a week ago, binged your videos since then and now I am in my Hobbit and LOTR Reading Marathon over Easter Break from Uni. Love you guys and keep growing (23.800 currently)🎉
Ahhh thank you a bunch!
the zoom in on the richard's forehead at 1:24:55 I am dead
It's so dope to see another person into general nerd fare that doesn't like rewatching things. I don't like it and my fiancé loves it and it hasn't made me hate anything, but it has horribly soured me to the idea of watching quite a few things I otherwise think are great
Yea I always feel alone in that - glad there’s someone else out there 👊
Really thought y’all were from Buffalo 😭 kept telling the boys yea I kept seeing the baffalo bills merch pretty sure that’s where they are at 🤣
😂
49:35 "it felt great, I love taking it from ya"
This is what our channel has come to. This and sock content
Should I read Edgedancer after WoR, or should I jump into Oathbringer?
You can, not as necessary as warbreaker is. To catch some big cosmere stuff in oathbringer, read warbreaker first.
@@2ToRamble Thanks!
Shoot! I should have yelled out "Richard!!" when I saw you walk past me in Politics and Prose at the Pierce Brown signing last week. You walked past too quickly before my brain caught up 😂 would have liked to say hi!
Shoot. Wish we could have said hi. That sure was a packed event
@@2ToRamble oh my god and 1,000 degrees!
Yeah, that was a scorcher. It felt and smelled like a small comic con
Sorry Austin but the moment Richard said "hollow knight" for favorite video game he became my favorite.
Richard becoming your favorite implies that I was once the favorite and Ill take that as a win in my book LETS GO 😂
Which duel is “the duel” in Stormlight? Is it Adolin and Kaladin fighting fighting together in WoR?
Oh yes 🙏
I could murder a curry ... Iconic line
I can murder a curry! Also Richard I think the brown Ajah’s name is Verrin
Dave Bautista as Dalinar
I could murder a curry. Love all your talks❤
Thank you 😁😁
Honestly we should delete tik tok, and favorite non scifi/ fantasy book? Sorry i missed the deadline, i was listening through the entire wheel of time series which yall got me to do!
It's a great excuse, though. I hope you like it more than Austin.
I really could murder a curry but I don't have tik tok so... Congrats on 10k, well deserved, keep it up.
Thankya!!
Malazan!
Henry Cavill as Zahel in a Stormlight adaptation
Ooo i see it
Can you guys please review Name of the Wind so I can hear Richard’s full thoughts on it??
Yes 👊
🎉🎉🎉
I like Henry Cavil as The Lord Ruler in Mistborn.
I REALLY WANT U TO READ MALAZAN :D hehehe
😁😁
1:00:00 correct me if I'm wrong, but Austin says Hyperion is an overrated book despite he hasn't read it yet?
I have read it - I give a brief reason as to why but we will have a full video on the book eventually!
Also if you want more view reviewing seacret project form Brandon will do the trick.
Are you guys from the Philly area? Not many people say hogie
Not philly area - we both grew up on different coasts but somehow still call in hoagie!
I realised while watching that Austin is the Pete Wentz of Booktube and Richard is the Patrick Stump 😮
Who are these people and what does that mean 😂
The great hunt review when?!
Coming in August 100% (and will make the effort to not make book 3 such a long wait)
@@2ToRamble Sweet, im reading the series for the first time and im on book 3. so its like i found your reviews at a perfect time so i can 'read along' with you lol
@@craftingodst3400 PERFECT!
Here for the sock content
🧦
Mads Mikkelsen for Dalinar
I know this is really late so you won't read it but having read the books as they came out i was having conversations with my mom about dumbbelldoor being gay before jr rolling said anything. Also the black comment was after the musical was announced and they where having a black women playing the role and basically she said if thats what they want to do that's fine and that she may have made that choice if she was righting it now
Brandon Sanderson also did a retcon in Words of Radiance.
*Spoilers Ahead*
In the battle between Kaladin and Szeth, instead of Szeth killing himself after Kaladin stabs him in the hand or somthing, in the original hardcover edition Kaladin stabs and kills Szeth instead.
Delete TikTok! And yep, while cooking then folding laundry 😁
YES RICHARD. COLONEL COLLEM WEST IS A 🐐
Ps. Austin pls read it asap bc I need a pod abt first law
🫡🫡
Delete Tiktok! I'm still here!!! (Also I dont have Tiktok)
Some thoughts:
Manga review: it will do well on the channel but if you go with standard One Piece and Berserk I'm not interested and it will be only for the views. While not your ally @gigguk is sometimes bringing up some less known manga worth reading and that is far more interesting than one hundred thousand person on youtube talking about OP and B. I can recommend Sousou no Frieren - fantasy story of the elf that only at the funeral of their old party leader, that she had adventure 50 years ago, start to understand the importance of friendship that she never noticed she had. Brilliant and fresh take on tired D&D campaign examin what happens after big bad is dead.
Stormlight casting: Brandon has a hard rule to cast same asian-type for Dalinar, Kaladin, Jasnah - as the culture was based on Mongols for Alethi. So we will have those three as from similar ethnicity likely chinese/japanese (Hollywood cant see difference between the two). So people like Ken Watanabe for Dalinar make sense, Michelle Yeoh for Navani, Liu Yifei for Jasnah. Kaladin, Shalon are to young to find good fit now. Henry Cavill could play one of the heralds. Richard Madden for Szeth-son-son-Vallano.
Thank you for the recommendation and you’re right - I totally forgot about how Sanderson was inspired by Mongol culture when creating Alethkar
There is no way in hell Austin wins a fight against Richard. Richard clearly has the strength of a full grown man, while Austin on the other hand.
Is this what my 2nd grade teacher meant by online bullying? RICHARD HOW DO WE REPORT THIS
I could murder a curry and delete tiktok. Though to be fair, I wouldn't have discovered the pod without tik tok. Austin's red rising review clip on tiktok hooked me.
I would looooove if you guys branched to romances. And I'm shocked to hear about the jade city dnf! I've only ever seen good things about it.
I JUST PUBLISHED A BOOK HOW CAN I SEND YOU GUYS A COPY
Shoot us an email at 2toramble@gmail.com!
❤
I want u soooo bad to do a berserk review
It's the best story I've ever consumed in every medium
Heard such great things about this!
I could murder a curry
Terry is a genius 🙏
Also Rich, the Torah is the first five books of the Bible, so you get a two for one special. Bring the Talmud instead
Is the guy on the right from Wisconsin
No but I think I see your point 😂
Nooooooo! There was only one answer: tapas with Hoid.
Unfortunately prosequence is not valid because consequence works for both good and bad results, and the secret as to why, is cum. The Latin conjunction cum (pronounced coom) means with in this context and is often changed to con in compound verbs (see also the word conjunction itself). Add in the verb sequor meaning to follow and you get consequence which means something like "thing that follows with". Why yes, I did study classics in college and am struggling to find uses for my degree, how could you tell.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I really could murder a curry! And guys, really do try the Dresden Files, but maybe skip the first book honestly.
Is the first one a rough start?
@@2ToRamble it's not that it's bad. But its not a very good step up for the series. It didn't make me want to keep reading (and I didn't for like a year), once I read the second I finished all 17 over the next year. Btw love the channel guys!
Thank you, and thank you for the rec!@@nordamoddev1038
I could Tiktok a curry
World atlas.
1:30:40
BROTHER ARE YOU ALSO A BAD FRIENDS FAN @AUSTIN?!?!?!
I’ve seen some clips from their pod and they’re hilarious 😂
I could murder a curry
Delete Tik Tok !!!
(I‘ve never used Tik Tok and I never plan to)
What if Henry Cavill played Rayse?
Oo 👀
And suddenly my day got better
Edit: I could murder a curry and delete tik tok
Stop making us feel good whats wrong with you
There might be a TikTok ban coming through now in the US so, indeed, delete TikTok.
I COULD MURDER A CURRY
Even if there would be a way to "farm" whales, damn would it be immoral.
Delete TikTok. ...I mean I've never installed it, so...
My man will never complete a book with dude reviewing it. Popular books in his D tier are evidence of that.
A little late to the party…but I could murder a curry right now
Also: Delete TikTok!
Delete TikTok….. it just took me two days
