Breakfast in Beauclair

This discussion of Netflix’s The Witcher Season 3 was recorded in July 2023 prior to the Hollywood writers’ and actors’ strikes.

Gintare from the UK and Vang from Denmark join Alyssa for our discussion of Netflix’s The Witcher Episode 301 “Shaerrawedd". Very important bits include: Yennefer and Geralt’s evolving relationship, the newly abstract nature of Dol Blathanna, the development of Ciri’s morals and ideals, and dead devils.
