Tyler's
Theory Corner.
Tyler has a habit of proposing outrageous theories about how the Cosmere actually works. Microorganisms. Dragons. Hoid's actual agenda. The stuff your book club would roll its eyes at. We've started collecting them.
This page is in progress. The real Theory Corners live in the audio — not in our show notes — so we're in the middle of combing the archive and flagging our favorites. Below are a few to start with. If you have a favorite Tyler theory we missed, tell us and we'll add it.
"We go off on wild theory tangents. Here is a whole episode of them."
The first time a Theory Corner energy got its own dedicated episode. The source material for the running bit that followed.
"Everything we think we know about Arc 2 — now with more hand-waving and fewer facts."
An extended theorizing session from our 2025 Arc 2 speculation marathon.
"Dragons. In the Cosmere. Show me the receipts, Tyler."
A Nexus panel where Tyler advances the Great Dragon Consolidation Hypothesis.
Help us build this out.
If you remember a specific Theory Corner moment, tell us which episode and roughly when. We'll credit the spotter.
