The Ned Stark sandwich! Today we have two Ned chapters with a Jon chapter in between. Samwell Tarley is introduced at the Wall and thinks pick up in King's Landing.
Three characters in completely different settings, experience somewhat similar journeys.
These are some wall heavy chapters so naturally we get into fixing the nights watch at the end of the pod. Littlefinger dominating Ned Stark like the Roadrunner and Wiley Coyote is also a discussion point.
Ned Stark has an all time appearance at Castle Darry on the Trident. Bran has dreams and wakes from his coma. Caitlyn Stark arrives in King's Landing and meet Varys and Littlefinger. Lucas and Mike go back and forth on what business they would start in King's landing. We address two deaths and thank our fans in New Zealand and Barbados
Three great chapters with the characters spreading out the vastness of westeros. We also hold a job interview in this episode.
Our first four chapter bundle and what a four chapters they are. Bran has fallen from a tower, Dany is getting married and many characters are leaving Winterfell. Also we finally get to the best part of a song of ice and fire: the food.
We dive into Caitlyn and Ned Stark's sex life, Maester Luwin's endless pockets, castle design and talk, plus we solemnly give young Joff the credit the earned.
We return and discuss the introduction of the iconic Daenerys Targaryen and the continent of Essos to the east. King Robert and his party arrive, and are then welcomed with a feast. We dissect the two different accounts of the past we are given by the Targaryen loyal characters and those who opposed them. We have a great making of the eight which includes and in depth look at a popular theory called Lemongate and a few plans George RR Martin had for the first book that petered out.
In a new podcast rereading and going through the Song of Ice and Fire series, LD and the Master of Whispers Lord Michael go through the nights watch filled prologue, Bran I and Caitlyn I in the first book in the series "a game of thrones". Fun segments, in depth discussions and more awaits.
