    House of the Dragon season finale discussion

    From Daemon's prophetic dream featuring Daenerys to Alicent's secret visit to Rhaenyra, we break down all the events of House of the Dragon's season finale. We discuss what we liked (Daemon pledging allegiance to his wife, Ser Simon) and what we didn't (the anti-climactic ending, Tyland's adventures with the Triarchy), and whether an 8-episode season every two years is the best way to tell this story. We also talk about Star Wars: Bounty Hunter and how Batman: Caped Crusader is the spiritual heir to Batman: The Animated Series.

    On this week's episode, we break down House of the Dragon's 6th episode. We discuss that kiss between Rhaenyra and Mysaria, Seasmoke deciding that Addam of Hull was his new dragon dad, and whether Daemon's dreams of his brother Viserys mean he's fully back on Team Black. Sean also discusses revisiting the Deadpool movies before the release of Deadpool & Wolverine while Lauren talks about catching up with Dune 2 and Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret on her recent flight to Europe. She also recommends the book A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space by Adam Higginbotham.

    The Acolyte finale discussion and House of the Dragon catch up

    After a longer-than-expected break (Lauren got COVID! Boo! Sean got a new job! Yay!), we are back to talk about The Acolyte finale and the last few explosive episodes of House of the Dragon. We break down those big Acolyte cameos (Darth Plagueis in the shadows! Yoda's ears!), discuss what we liked/didn't like about the season, and our hopes for a potential season 2. Over in the Seven Kingdoms, we discuss the death of the Queen that Never Was in the Battle of Rook's Rest, Rhaenyra's plan for the dragonseeds, and Ser Criston's mistake in parading a dead dragon around King's Landing.
