    War is Bad, It is Known - Episode 50 The Dying of the Dragons: The Red and the Gold Part 4

    Caroline and Gretchen continue their analysis with The Dying of the Dragons: The Red and the Gold, Part 4. A little whoopsie-doodle in the Gullet results in Jace's untimely but very thematically significant demise, which spurs Rhaenyra to invade Kind's Landing. That's definitely what happened! She has no other reason! Also we can't escape worms. Check out Pat Loller's TikTok @patloller - he is a veteran and speaks on veteran's rights and politics, and is funny and smart! Join our Discord!

    Thanks George - Episode 46 A Son for a Son Part 2

    TRIGGER WARNING episode, child death :-/ Caroline and Gretchen continue their analysis with The Dying of the Dragons: A Son for a Son Part 2. Lord Boros' clever daughter says "No balls!" to Almond Targaryen, so he definitely intentionally chomps Lucerys. In response, Daemon says "I read my bible!" and demands an eye for an eye, killing Prince Jaehaerys. Thanks George! Join our Discord!

    Baby's First Patriarchy - Episode 44 The Blacks and the Greens Part 3

    Gretchen and Caroline continue their analysis with a The Dying of the Dragons: The Blacks and the Greens Part 3. Rhaenyra's advantages are few as she only has a max of 14 dragons at her disposal, and Aegon is definitely strong and totally not a potential kinslayer. Also, the patriarchy is bad. Join our Discord!
