  <itunes:subtitle>Brooke and Tyler question the meaning of Enlightenment to better understand nine (or maybe ten!) of Roshar's most haunting mysteries- The Unmade. We examine how The Unmade were created and changed, detail the known aspects of each individual Unmade, and theorize wildly about one of their chosen Radiants, Renarin Kholin. #AllSpoilers</itunes:subtitle>

Conversation Questions:
How do the terms Made, Unmade, and Enlightened interconnect and differ? (23 mins)
What mechanism did Ba Ado Mishram use to bond the Singers? (42 mins) 
Does there need to be a rebalancing among the Knights Radiant &amp;amp; Spren in order to account for Odium’s new nature as a True Tone of Roshar? (1h 36mins)
