We kick off our new show with a classic devil as we take a close look at All That Money Can Buy (aka The Devil and Daniel Webster). We celebrate the definitive performance by Walter Huston while enjoying a timely conversation about the still-relevant themes of this 1941 film. How can an America struggling under the extractive oppression of the intractably wealthy reckon with its founding ideals of equality and freedom? The questions are as relevant and the answers as clear as they were when this movie was first released.Devil: Scratch from All That Money Can Buy (1941, dir.

Chronicler probes Bast about the Cthaeh. We talk about how the relationship between these two characters is changing. We also liken Chroncler’s skepticism of the Cthaeh to a certain kind of person in the mid-2000s, and how bad Y2K would have been.@pageofthewindpageofthewind.comJoin the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcgTo support the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike as they battle for a living wage and decent working conditions, visit one or more of these links:https://entertainmentcommunity.org/https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/the-snacklist-support-striking-workers

Fela lays out what’s attractive about Kvothe, and Sim gets jealous. We talk about that jealousy, and you get some sweet sweet parasocial insight into your hosts’ romantic history.

Denna jumps to some conclusions.

Kvothe and Denna hang out on a hot rock. We talk about what Denna means by “Yes” (and come to no conclusions), the sensuality of this passage, and the name of the wind in Denna’s hair. @pageofthewindpageofthewind.comJoin the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcgTo support the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strike as they battle for a living wage and decent working conditions, visit one or more of these links:https://www.wgacontract2023.org/strike-hub https://entertainmentcommunity.org/https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/the-snacklist-support-striking-workers
The couple have a sexy splash fight.

Kvothe and Denna go on a date to a secluded dell. We debate what exactly Denna means by her story, the pitfalls of not being able to say plainly what’s on your mind, and how that leads to tragedy. @pageofthewindpageofthewind.comJoin the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcgTo support the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strike as they battle for a living wage and decent working conditions, visit one or more of these links:https://www.wgacontract2023.org/strike-hub https://entertainmentcommunity.org/https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/the-snacklist-support-striking-workers

Kvothe and Vashet try to find him the perfect sword. We talk about how this scene echoes other scenes in fantasy fiction.

Kvothe performs his ablutions and is invited into a Sword Room. We talk about the school's layout, make the inevitable Star Wars comparisons, and compare girths.
Kvothe looks inward as Vashet lays out some real talk. We talk about why the Adem keep themselves in top physical form, how the Adem handle parentage, and why our podcast is so darn great!
Kvothe asks Vashet for information about the Rhinta, and for permission to bone Penthe. We're joined by the sultry tones of RJ from Entirely the Right Sort of Podcast to talk about model polyamory, whether sex is intimate in Ademre, and premodern sexual mores. Lotsa sextalk in this one!

Kvothe admits to wanting power and then gets owned. We talk about Kvothe's abiding motivation, this page's hands, and what Shehyn might learn about Kvothe.

Vashet reflects on Kvothe's triumph. We talk about a big laugh, Kvothe's new standing, and wonder at the Adem's attitude to magic.
Kvothe completes his test. Did he cheat? Yes. We talk about what the Adem know of Kvothe's power, and wonder if the Lethani is driving Kvothe to a bad end, and get a bit nihilistic at the end there.
Kvothe stalls and gives us a list of the items under the tree. We talk about Kvothe's epiphany, draw some comparisons to Jedi philosophy, and what it's like being the kinda guy who laughs at a funeral - can't understand what I mean? You soon will.
Kvothe tries to puzzle out the correct solution to the Latantha test. We talk about Kvothe's deepest desire, what positions are available for full arcanists, and some of Kvothe's unsurfaced attutudes.
Kvothe begins the test of the Latantha and sees the wind. We talk about how Kvothe treats this test like the Kobayashi Maru, how this test may have influenced the names he gets from the Adem, and talk about intentionally ambiguous tests in fantasy. @pageofthewindpageofthewind.com

Kvothe is taken for his test at the sword tree. We talk about printing and storytelling techniques in comics and prose, Penthe and Carceret’s names, and riding a sled into a ravine. @pageofthewindpageofthewind.com
Vashet's voice is sort of a Strega Nona type today as she explains why Kvothe's test has been fast tracked. We talk about succeeding at exams, Jeremy is dead wrong about what kind of test this is, and give some tips on how to apply for school.
Our two leads commiserate over feeling alientaed. We talk about the queer analogues, wonder at some of the larger context that seems to be missing, and why this book differs from the rest of the series.
Kvothe is walking on eggshells until the time for his test comes. We talk about the possibly-abrupt end of the sequence, the breakdown of Kvothe's relationship with Vashet, and the things that influenced Vashet's decision.
Vashet explains her thinking, and Kvothe is mystified by a bra. We talk about wrapped dresses, Rothfuss' approach to writing about breasts, and how close Kvothe came to disaster.
Kvothe gears up for a fight, then goes to see Vashet. We talk about Adem attitudes, Vashet's intentions, infer some things about Vashet's visitors, and Jeremy makes me spend an inordinate amount of time bleeping all his F-Bombs. Apologies for the audio quality in this week's episodes; we're experimenting with new setups.
Kvothe bares his musical soul. We talk about how Kvothe is better able to communicate without words, the songs he chooses to play for Vashet, and the most important tool for self-knowledge yet devised by humankind.@pageofthewindpageofthewind.com
Kvothe lures Vashet out of her home and into the darkness. We ponder if Vashet knows Kvothe is capable of fell sorcery, Kvothe showing he knows how to listen, and how this page sets up mystery. @pageofthewindpageofthewind.com
Kvothe ponders his next move and comes to a dramatic decision. We talk about how this scene might be faking out the reader - and how it might not. We discuss the structural role this scene would occupy in a more traditional story and how Rothfuss subverts our expectations. We also talk about how Kvothe’s reaction in this scenario is justifiable!@pageofthewindpageofthewind.com
Kvothe goes to apologize to Vashet, but she has something else in mind. We talk about how much we can learn from Vashet’s interpretation of Kvothe, and what in Kvothe is nature versus nurture. We ponder - can one trust an apology that comes from fear? And we debate the nature of a fence.@pageofthewindpageofthewind.com
Kvothe recites a poem for Penthe. We talk about bad mouths, get a crash course in poetry from Jeremy, and Jordana finally fulfills her promise.
Penthe provides Kvothe with an unexpected kindness. We talk about the flirty conversation, Penthe's shyness, and how the characters make accomodations for each other.
Kvothe teaches Penthe the intricacies of facial expressions. We talk about Italian Penthe, the Borat Quotient, and make filthy jokes about furniture.
Penthe sits down with Kvothe. We talk about the sweetness of this scene, and Penthe’s facility with the Aturan language and facial expressions. We talk about all the small nuances of a foreign culture one must learn to navigate, @pageofthewindpageofthewind.com
Vashet slaps the %&#*! out of Kvothe. We talk about how and why she does that, and why one would teach Kvothe deadly martial arts if one did not want him to use them. @pageofthewindpageofthewind.com
Kvothe treads on thin conversational ice with Vashet.We talk about the point of learning martial arts, skipping over the foundations of learning a skill, and a letter prompts us to talk (again) about the nature of the Cthaeh’s foresight. @pageofthewindpageofthewind.com

Rothfuss reads the first page of Doors of Stone, and we bring our Pagers' eyes to bear with our special brand of analysis. We're unlocking this episode, originally intended as January's patron episode, for everyone. Let the speculation commence!
The long wait is over! Page of the Wind is ending its break on New Year's Day 2022. Tune in for our coverage of the second half of The Wise Man's Fear - a page a day, every day, for 497 days.
On this latest mailbag interstitial, we entertain a variety of cracked pots (what if the Mair is asexual? What does Denna really believe about the Chandrian? Is the narrator of the NotW audiobook, himself, a chandrinoid?) You want the answers? Tune in to find out.
On this episode, we answer some more listener mail, discussing how Rothfuss chooses what to describe and what to leave to our imaginations, as well as a crackpot theory about what the secret of the thrice-locked chest might be. We also get a couple of reccomendations for boardgames and books to enjoy!
On this mailbag ep, a listener writes in with a thoughtful perspective on the gender politics of the books based on her own lived experience - and also asks us to imagine which character we would like to see gender swapped!
We also discuss some other oft-purported crackedpot theories, and reassess their veracity.
The youtube video discussed in A.S' letter is below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wx34LNWEE8E&t=9s
On this mailbag ep, senses will be shattered! Lives will be reimagined! Your favourite childhood cartoon will be rebooted in a shameless bid for your nostalgia-bucks!
Our listeners write in to challenge some of our cracked pots, and reinforce other ones? Who will survive and who will perish? Stay tuned, True Believers!
We discuss the complicated gender politics of possession, and several more cracked pots on our latest interstitial episode.
In this installment of our mailbag eps, Jordana learns how to use Wikipedia, Jeremy gets owned, Mr. Mailbag gets a snack, and we think long and hard about Kvothe's special-boy status.
In this episode, we rise to the occasion, dishing the dirt on whether or not Will is a fake friend, and we hear the impassioned confession of a frequent listener who feels they strayed from the true path.
We reach into the slick and salivating gullet of Mr. Mailbag to discuss a connection between the girl Denna helps and a major villain, discourse about the financial ins and outs of sex work, and decide whether or not Denna is the jealous type.
We return to ease Mr Mailbag's suffering and read some listener letters. We learn a lot about what it means to be horny, and Nick perhaps goes too far with the whole joke around making Jordana uncomfortable with the Mr Mailbag character.
@pageofthewind pageofthewind@gmail.com patreon.com/pageofthewind ko-fi.com/pageofthewind
Nick and Jordana convene to take a look back at where they have come from, and where they must go.
@pageofthewind patreon.com/pageofthewind ko-fi.com/pageofthewind pageofthewind@gmail.com
The end of the fight brings us to the end of the Severen story and a natural act break. We talk about the dramatic irony of Kvothe’s being bewitched, the metaphor of Kvothe’s anger, and Jordana learns how to get violent.
We will be taking a break for a few months. Keep an eye on our social media for news and updates.

Outro music: Bon Jovi - Livin’ on a Prayer (MTV Unplugged)

Bast fails to open the box. We swap roles, wonder about why Kvothe wants Bast to get educated, and explain the engineering of medieval blades.

Bast tries to open Kvothe’s thrice-locked chest. That’s not a euphemism, ya pervs. We talk about the box a lot - why Kvothe can’t open it, what it’s made of, whether Kvothe really wants Bast to open it, and of course, what will be inside it when he does. We also talk about where we think the story is ultimately going, including some comparisons to other works about washed-up heroes.

Denna realizes Kvothe wasn’t lying to her about knowing the Maer. We discuss how Denna receives this news, and what it might say about her that she’s used to men lying to her. We then get into a mind-bending riffs about the necessity of performativity, vis a vis the gardens having ears. We finish off with the eternal question - what does Denna want?

Kvothe and Denny spy the Maer walking in his gardens. We discuss Denna’s reaction to seeing the Maer, and put forward some theories as to what it might mean. We muse about who believes what, and how that affects their relationships, and of course, we talk about Denna’s ever-moving hair.

Kvote lays on the drama. We talk about a typo, get a peek into Denna’s mindset, and Kvothe’s moral fiber.

Denna and Kvothe do some bits. We talk about some possible naming, the mechanics of the magic braids, and Denna’s attitudes toward sex.
@pageofthewind pageofthewind.com twitch.tv/pageofthewind
Kvothe goes looking for Denna and actually finds her! We debate whether or not Master Ashe is involved in dark intrigues, and how much Denna knows versus how much she lets on to Kvothe. We discuss the concept of a “limited hangout”, how Rothfuss uses context clues to set the scene, and Denna’s costume changes. That leads into a revealing conversation about how little we know about how clothes were made in ye olden times.

Kvothe waxes lyrical about Denna’s abilities as a songsmith,and he tells us how the seduction is playing out. We put forward a theory that Denna may have a latent x-gene mutation, and discuss rhyming couplets, before Jordana puts forward a crackpot theory.

Denna and Kvothe explore the city, and start gabbing about music to eachother. We discuss how much each might be learning from the other, HANDS, the Beatles, and how Kvothe puts himself in the friendzone. This leads into a long discussion about the ins and outs of the friendzone, but we eventually circle back to talk about whether or not Denna does want Kvothe to put his arm around her. FOr the final conclusion to that question, however, you’ll have to wait for an episode several pages hence!

Denna finds Kvothe (again) and apologizes for leaving at the drop of a hat. We talk about what Kvothe leaves unsaid, and we once again return to that crackedest of pots about Denna and the Moon. Don’t worry, we soon tangent into some nonsense about the taxonomy of the himbo, before returning to talk about Kvothe’s writer’s block. .

Kvothe demonstrates how Caudicus might yet threaten the Maer, and the Maer asks Kvothe to name his price. We once again raise the spectre of Caudicus’ legitemacy, and poke a few holes in one of Nick’s pet theories. We discuss clever uses of sympathy and the reputations of sympathists, and what Kvothe asks of the Maer.

Kvothe has to find a way to keep the Maer off his back until Denna returns. We discuss how the Vintish conceptualize magic, and how Rothfuss may be hiding information about the status quo of the frame narrative in plain sight through ~~fashion!~~. We talk about the potential geopolitical import of Kvothe’s actions, and a listener letter has some great insights and new takes on a scene we talked about ages ago!

Kvothe cannot find Denna, and thus cannot find the beat. Jeremy puts forward his grand unified theory of rhymes, and then Nick and Jeremy prove, in real time, that podcasting is just one more kind of magic. We talk about Kvothe’s insecurities and self involvement, and how an event in this chapter provides the rationale for one of our cockamamie theories. Then we get into discussing ~the process~.

CW: In this episode we briefly discuss the racist and completely discredited pseudoscience of phrenology. We also talk about the discredited theory of Stockholm Syndrome.
Kvothe finally meets the woman he must seduce, and promptly (metaphorically) puts his elbow in the butter. We play the pronunciation game, and discuss divination and phrenology. We then tangent pretty early on into discussing Stockholm Syndrome, which has nothing whatsoever to do with this page. We get back to the page by discussing how Meluan Lackless reminds Kvothe of somebody … and maybe somebody else! We also discuss the kinds of clues that an author leaves behind for second-time readers or podcasters with nothing left to lose.
To make up for our frequent tangents in this episode, our episode finishes with a climactic orgy of theory-babbling based on a letter from a long time reader. Then we tangent back into nonsense town.

Kvothe gets a crash course in dinner etiquette. We talk about the US interstate highway system, and what Kvothe’s mother might have intended for Kvothe to use his etiquette training for. Jordana admonishes all our faithful listeners to eat their cheese-rinds, and we note how Rothfuss uses manners and decorum to inform how we think about culture. Jordana also gives her SOLEMN OATH to participate in a fair and honest chocolate milk challenge, after bamboozling our much-aggrieved listenership in the matter of the cod liver oil.

Bredon explains to Kvothe his philosophy of the Beautiful Game of Tak. We try to work out what Beautiful Game Bredon is really trying to teach Kvothe, and why. Jordana proves to be a tough customer, and we return to our old bugaboo of it being good when characters make mistakes that character would make.

Page 441: Oak-Cask Aged, 25 Years
Kvothe explains how he thinks Caudicus was warned, and the Maer and Kvothe finally have some one on one time. We discuss the Maer’s true intentions in rewarding Kvothe, the name of charcoal, and that wascally Devin Wockhees shows up once more. Finally, we tangent into etymology.

Page 440: Listen and Learn
The Maer tells Kvothe what ‘calanthis’ means, right before they all get some rather distressing news. We talk about the symbolism of hummingbirds (aka calanthis), and how they connect to orchids and also the Aztec god of human sacrifice, Huitzilipochtli (which Jeremy pronounces ‘HWEET-zil-ee-POK-tlee’, which leads into a digression about K.A. Applegate’s other YA fantasy series. We also talk about the suspicious circumstances of Caudicus’ escape, and whether it might be Chandrinoid-related.

Page 439: Dagon’s Call
The Maer orders the arrest and mutilation of Caudicus. We discuss how this page is a microcosm of Kvothe’s actions having unintended and gruesome consequences. We also discuss the mysterious and frightening figure of Dagon, and how he might figure into the plot to poison the Maer. We float the idea that Caudicus planted a bug on Kvothe, which is how he gives the Maer’s people the slip. We talk about how the Maer may rely on ceremony to enforce his will. We also address a letter that discusses our murky awareness of the true nature of Caudicus.

CW: In this episode, we discuss abusive relationships, including physically and sexually abusive relationships.
Denna has found her patron, at last - and Kvothe is not well pleased about it. We talk about beauty standards, and the complicated situation that Denna is in, and how Kvothe’s reaction, however well-intentioned, is made with an incomplete understanding of the situation. Furthermore, we connect Denna’s abuse at the hands of Ash with the circumstances of Kvothe’s own life. We then talk about Denna’s hair, and how it’s braidedness relates to the events of the scene.

Kvothe and Denna catch part of a play, and then catch up. We chat about Vintish fashion and what it tells us about their culture, and how Kvothe and Denna are falling back into old, perhaps not entirely healthy, patterns. We talk about the tangled nature of trust, irksome scansion, and the mark of skill that it is to write diagetic text that is supposed to be Good. We also devolve into talking about what songs are good to do at karaoke.

Kvothe observes Caudicus chatting with Stapes, the Maer’s manservant! We talk about what we are led to believe, and what Stapes, Caudicus, and Kvothe are all, respectively, led to believe, about eachothers prospective schemes. Nick argues that Kvothe and Stapes may, themselves, be under the influence of fictional tropes, and Jeremy asks for some good old fashioned comedy. We also talk about the delightful phrase for which our episode is named, and how Kvothe’s gilded cage is a match for Denna’s.

Kvothe observes Caudicus making the Maer’s medicine for a second time, and is tempted with knowledge about the Jakiss family. We are treated to another one of Rothfuss’ fictional etymologies, and discuss how Kvothe pays attention to the recipe for the Maer’s medicine. We also ruminate on why Kvothe turns down the opportunity to hear some hot goss, and Jordana puts forth a cracked pot!

Kvothe learns just how far back the name ‘Lackless’ goes. We talk about real-world comparisons to a name older than empires, and how being able to tie one’s nation or family to the mythic past is a great way to build prestige. We also talk about how Rothfuss presents the changing name Lackless, and take a detour into our own prestigious geneaologies. Finally, we cast a suspicious side-eye at Caudicus - fraud, or maligned arcanist? You be the judge!

Kvothe meets up with Caudicus again, and boldly asks him about the Chandian. We share our differing perspectives on what Kvothe risks by asking that question, and what data points it can add to the mystery of Caudicus’ true intentions. We talk about the differences between mythology, folklore, and superstition, and tangent into the subject of exotic pets.

Kvothe enquires after the Maer’s health and learns an unwelcome truth about birds. We discuss how skilfully Rothfuss ratchets up the tension in the Maer and Kvothe’s conversation, how Jordana wished to impart her own sense of self preservation onto Kvothe, and how Rothfuss uses the ol’ bait-n-switch to keep us guessing.

Kvothe owns the Maer into taking his medicine like a good boy. We talk about Kvothe’s character growth, and how the point of view the prose takes informs the different tools that the author can use to build tension. We also return to our most reliable subject - the unreliable narrator.We also talk about how certain tactics of persuasion may be more effective in fiction than in real life.

Kvothe provides a way to test his hypothesis to the Maer. We discuss whether or not Rothfuss is a roly poly teddy bear. We also point out how Kvothe continues to ignore the evidence that doesn’t fit with his theory, and whether or not we think Kvothe is willing to learn from his mistakes.

Kvothe expounds on his theory to the Maer, evidence and counterarguments be damned! We talk about how Kvothe is so sure of himself that we start to really question his judgment, and how he breezes by several of the Maer’s most salient points, including the question of motive. We also talk about whether Caudicus is a fraud, a fool, or something more sinister.

We talk about the joys of watching clever characters be clever, and the verisimilitudinousness that the Maer’s lead-poisoning adds to the world of Temerant. We alsotalk about how convincing the Maer is not as easy as Kvothe (or the reader) thinks it will be.

The Maer realizes he knows nothing about the woman he wants to date, so he sends Kvothe to learn. We talk about the oddness of dating in a courtly culture, and spend at least two minutes talking about something we’re flat out WRONG about!

Kvothe and the Maer talk about exactly why the Maer wants to marry Meluan Lackless, and the difficulties involved. We talk about how the Maer's position might have left him unable to love, in the way we understand it - and certainly might have made it more difficult for him to trust people. We also talk about his ... curious ideas about courtship.
The Maer reveals the extent of his marital difficulties to Kvothe. We talk about the Maer's issues with intimacy, the name of the king, and somehow manage to segue into a discussion about medieval and Roman succession, all without ever once making the OBVIOUS Monty Python joke.
Harrow and the gang explore the creepy sub-basement and the pool where Harrow and Gideon had a fateful chat in the last book. Or did they? We talk about Harrow's unreliability as a narrator, and how difficult that makes it to ascertain what really happened. Or that could be our own fault memories. In any event, it's all par for the course on the long-running smash-hit podcast, Page of the Ninth!
Stapes takes Kvothe to meet the Maer… in bed. We talk about the details of the Maer’s illness, what kids see when they look at grown-ups, and begin to throw some wild accusations.

Bredon bids Kvothe farewell, for now, and leaves a gift. We talk about a curious turn of phrase, the next move in the game, and who has the upper hand.

Bredon fills Kvothe in on the subtlety of the ring game, while pretending that’s not what he’s doing. We discuss the difficulties of conversations where a person says one thing and means many other things, the nature of fictional villainy (yes AGAIN!!!), and how our expectations of how we think a book should go can colour our experience when the book goes in a different direction.

Kvothe and the Maer continue their discussion of the nature of power, and the Maer has to go take his meds. We talk about the Maer’s boundaries, his casual, thoughtless misogyny, and how granted power in the Maer’s court is ultimately entirely dependant on the Maer himself. We also do some theorycrafting about the Maer’s mysterious illness.

Kvothe introduces himself to Maer Alveron. We discuss Maer’s attitude towards his social inferiors, and how valuable his time is versus other people’s. We also talk about how the Maer and Stapes are characterized, and their different relationships to power, as well as the well-woven-in exposition about the guards and their arms, and the guys looking at maps, and what that all says about the political status quo in which the Maer finds himself. We also talk about different bows, and what they might say about the theatrical tradition of the room.

Kvothe arrives in Severen penniless and in rags. We discuss how Rothfuss has introduced two cities now where the city’s class dynamics are mirrored by the literal geography. This leads us into a discussion of the political economy of cities more broadly, and the features of fantasy cities, including which ones are best. We also discuss Kvothe’s hunger sense, and the properties of the delicious ragamuffin.

We turn a four line page into a doozy as we talk about how our ability to travel huge distances with very little time or effort has changed the way we perceive travel, and how it might differ from Kvothe’s experiences. We tangent off from there into answering important questions about whether you can put a car on a plane, the history and nature of policing, and Monty Python.

We discuss Disney trying to screw noted author Alan Dean Foster out of royalties for the various Star Wars and Alien novels he wrote under license to Fox in the 1980s and 1990s, much to Jordana’s consternation. Probably because she doesn’t care about the rights of artists or something.
As regards the book this podcast is nominally about, we discuss how elegantly Rothfuss doles out Sim’s backstory and how it colours his character. We ponder his reasons for being at the university, and whether he’s truly happy. We also have the traditional Two Minutes Hate for The Rise of Skywalker.
