E10 - HotDS1E6 Part 1, Fathers, Mothers, Enemies, and Lovers: The Kids Edition ft. Patrick Sponaugle
Description
In an extraordinary first, the recording time of our coverage of House of the Dragon Episode 6 "The Princess and the Queen" ran so long, the only thing we could do was bring you a two-parter! And why was it busting at the seams with content discussion? This week's special guest Pat Sponaugle, everyone's favorite fandom dad, essayist, and commentator, made it wayyyyyyyyyyy too easy to get carried away! Big questions were asked and answered, even ones holding over from episode 5. Did Criston Cole murder Joffrey impulsively on perhaps a misunderstanding of Joffrey's intentions? Or was it far more calculated and intentially cruel than we initially realized? The ten year time jump is disected and critisized many times. Was it too much time to skip? Was it the right time to do the skip? Was there too much or not enough in this episode? No matter what, it is agreed apon that the cast, the crew, and the creators did a phenomenal job. Even after discussing ALL EIGHT children introduced this episode, there was still so much left that we wanted to talk about, so Pat graciously agreed to return to give us one more hour of hilarity and witty analysis. That will be coming up soon in part two. Bonus cameo appearance by Lisa Sponaugle and Chi-Chi the pug!
