I discovered this recently and caught up within weeks. I love the books, and have read all Cosmere related. I really like the discussion and the banter, specially the spoiler section The problem is that now that I've caught up it comes too slowly for my reading speed. I wish the podcast was more regular.

Very insightful and entertaining.
