Always a blast! YAS QUEEN
SLAAAAAAAAY
Allen I recently finished Guns of the Dawn and I LOVED it!
Ya know, even ironic use of Yas Queen is becoming steadily more irritating. Bleh.
@@Paul_van_Doleweerd hahahah
@@Paul_van_Doleweerd I only do it for my students normally bc they use it incessantly
Thanks everyone!!
I don’t read fantasy, idk how I found y’all, I don’t always know what y’all are talking about but Allan always makes me laugh. Y’all are the best!
That makes me so happy lol
Drinking my morning coffee listening to Allen & Jimmy is a very healing experience… Thank you guys 😊
Ps: Jimmy I watched Oz it’s my favorite prison show by far !
It's sooooo good
Spontaneous conversation as it should be spoken. 😁
Definitely 😁
@@thefantasynuttwork I hope you didn't lose too many viewers to alcohol poisoning. 😂
this was "everything I look for" in a CWN episode
😂
POPULISM IS THE DEATH OF DEMOCRACY!! Hahahahha im only 15 mjnutes in and this is EXACTLY what i needed🤣 ALLEN THE GOAT
He is truly
I've taught in Japan, Australia, and Korea, and the horror stories I've heard from every single American teacher are exactly what Allens talking about here, particularly the politicization over every topic imaginable, handwringing over "Hey school shooters, don't do it! bad boys!! school shootings are against school policy!!!" As if those kids are going to listen.
That or teachers buying supplies for kids out of their own pay, not being able to. I've taught in some insanely conservative communities in Asian countries and we were still able to talk about gay relationships without books being burned, the way the bastion of freedom of speech is going is horrifying.
It's extremely concerning
@@thefantasynuttwork Love your Berserk stuff btw, this just autoplayed after part 27 >.>
@@ChichiNaka hahah thank you so much!
ahh yaaassss it's my two favorite ascendants
We aim to please
Great episode as usual.
Stoner was a great read.
This is the exact reason why I postponed reading Babel. Waiting for the hype to die down and more reviews.😄
Don't worry Allen...I'm not part of the Sanderson or Abercrombie fandom either. We shall endure!
Mark Lawrence's book reviews are really good, agreed.
No harm in waiting haha
Please don't stop the House of the Dragon videos, I loved it, especially the Bobby B sidekick 😂
I appreciate that 😂
Great chat as always. Allen was ready straight out the gate hahaha
He was revved up hahaha
Fantastic talk. 🥰 I haven't seen the episode of HotD, so I will watch your video after that, Jimmy. 😊
Awesome!!
Great episode! Thanks for sharing your time :)
Thanks for watching 😁
YAAAAS QUEENS🙌🏻😂 Great discussion as always guys! Congratulations on your new job Jimmy. Hope you have a good day!
Appreciate you dude!
*Allen Ranting*
Husband: who pissed in Allen's Wheaties?
Me: He is just passionate.
Hahahaha
"Why did you wait six years to come to the eye doctor?"
And I said: "Because I'm a child"
Roy Dotrice is the best audiobook narrator I've ever heard. I've only listened to the first three ASOIAF books and he is just incredible, he fully commits to every scene, every laugh, cough, song, spluttering death.
Only problem I had was the racist caricature voice for the translator slave in SoS. That was rough.
Let’s go!!! 2 of my favorite guys!
We appreciate you!
If we spent money ONLY on infrastructure, i'd be a happy taxpayer. Preach Allen!
Same TBH
About the "Lion of Macedon", it is that Parmenion, but it start when he was a kid in Sparta. Great duology
Sounds very good!
Continuing the video now, I completely understand your feelings of gratitude for having an outlet to gush about your favorite series. I'm grateful I've managed to find a twitter community to do that myself. I can't wait to link you so many Berserk posts when you're up to date haha
I'm hyped!
oh man Powells is sick!!
I love that you've influenced so many people to read Stoner. I read it years ago in an English class in college and absolutely loved it. May need to re-read soon.
And on a fantasy/sci-fi channel nonetheless 🤣
@@thefantasynuttwork 🤣 Something about it must work for us fantasy readers. Also, good luck at your new job! I'm also a software engineer and impostor syndrome is a bitch, but I'm sure you'll do awesome.
@@MrDperigo thanks man, I appreciate that a lot
I wanted to comment, that Neil Gaiman’s Norse Mythology was an excellent re-take!
It's the book of his I wanna read the most!
read the wolf den, it's historical fiction but not a retelling.
I'll check it out
That conversation with authors dying cuts deep. Never in a million years did I think Miura would die before I even finished college. I figured I'd be in my 40s at least.
It's a sad thing, hope you're well buddy
@@thefantasynuttwork I am thanks ❤️ any chance of dudes talking manga happening this weekend btw?
@@trill_nathan unfortunately I'm out of town but we will be back
@@thefantasynuttwork Enjoy your time away! (Hopefully it's for something fun)
Just started reading «Sailing to Sarantine» by GGK (Book 1 in the «Sarantine Duology»), set in a fantasy version of 6th Century Byzantium under Justinian and Theodora. Returning to GGK is like a «Silk Baby-wipe”: So comfortable and so well-crafted, and I think it might be THE GGK book for Allen!
Do not gamble or drink, but my inner crooner do wanna visit LV for the Musical Shows.
What are you guys’ take on the recent announcements on Student Debt Reduction?
LV is such a great time
Lets gooooo
😎
A few days late, but with 3 kids it's hard to get on the stream live. You are blasting through Bakker's work. It sounds like you've come to appreciate how dark this world is. I remember watching the discussion with Slowly Red and Shelf Unstable for The Darkness That Comes Before and how the general thought (paraphrased) was this is a brutal and unkind world. Any retrospective thoughts on the initial trilogy compared to where you are now?
I prefer AE over the OG trilogy
Can't wait to hear Allen's thoughts on the Assassin's Creed RPG Trilogy [Origins/Odyssey/Valhalla], they're so divisive. Love Origins tho.
Oh damn hes playing them for the first time? Niiiice!! Origins was indeed the best, Bayek's VA wss phenomenal
Jimmy, read the Long Price Quartet
Maaaaaybe
@@thefantasynuttwork it's calling your name. Just lean out the car window and listen to the wind. It's the Call of the Abraham
Jimmy, just wanted you to know this 1 subscriber hasn’t watched your house of the dragon video yet because I haven’t had chance to watch the show yet but when I do I’ll watch it 😄
Hahah it's all good 😊
Feels like I’m watching an episode of Trash Taste hearing some of Allen’s takes.
😂😂😂
Erased is such a good anime and yet I never hear anyone talk about it
Hello everyone 😁
Hi mom lol
😁
Have either of you read Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield? It's a standalone Historical-Fiction about the Battle of Thermopylae. I recommend it.
Not yet!
I think Allen would like Stormlight becahse its literally shonen anime disguised as epic fantasy novels, like, Words Of Radiance is sooo shonen anime, thr ending is basically Dragon Ball Z type stuff hahahahaha but i love it!! Thats why i think it will work for Allen, jusr depends on if he'll vibe with the humor of Lopen, Rock and others.
I am very curious to see how he likes it
There's an Allen on a pole behind you.
I was trying to find a way of fitting that into the stream 😂
I'm surprised my ADHD allowed me to listen to this
I'm glad!
Fantasy hasn't been the same for me since I finished 2nd Apocalypse and Malazan Book of The Fallen.
I've mostly stuck with Historical & Urban Fantasy since.
I can see why
Wow, this guy needs a new job.
😂
