Chaol Westfall: Defend Him or Bash Him? Throne of Glass Listener Debate
02 Oct 2025
In this special episode, we handed the mic to our listeners with one challenge: Defend or bash Chaol Westfall. From Throne of Glass loyalists who passionately defend him to readers who pull no punches in their critiques, we read through your funniest, sharpest, and most persuasive takes. Whether you believe Chaol deserves a redemption arc or you’re firmly in the anti-Chaol camp, this episode explores why Sarah J. Maas’s most polarizing character continues to ignite debate. Along the way, we dig into themes of loyalty, love, trauma, and growth in the Throne of Glass series, and what our divided feelings about Chaol reveal about the fandom itself.
