This is a great podcast. Eschewing the usual tendency for podcasts to lose focus and meander this podcast manages to thoroughly cover episodes in an intelligent way.

Don’t like the dragons ‘resent learning their names’ and think battle of the blackwater was the best episode of GOT!!!?? why are you watching this show when you seem to criticise it so deeply rather than watch it with a balanced veiw if you want non stop character development by focusing solely on the players sitting around a table discussing their feelings in depth and opening completely up watch something else! This is literally about the demise of the DRAGONS (which are not just weapons but loved companions) and the WAR between the two sides!!! This isn’t the modern age opening up was weakness then! Look to See the more subtle ways not spoken but physically shown where you can see them changing and developing as characters!
Triple Thumbs Down 👎 👎👎

Big fan of The Crown, decided to try this podcast with the episode covering S06E08. Big mistake. Unnecessarily crass and offensive, and just plain awful. The guy actually said “Oh strokes freak me out cause they’re like a silent killer or something ha ha ha”. Seriously!
Major spoiler? In the flipping episode title!?!?
