Episode 7 - Gifts, Eunuch Rankings, and Game of Bachelors

It's late, I had to be at work at 7:15 today, and I'm not interested in writing an episode description. I talk about some Thronesian stuff including how big of a dick Reek is despite not having one, which eunuch is the best, and also the first time the Queen of Thorns ever lost a conversation. Godspeed, listeners.

Episode 6 - Color-Coded Weddings, Bronn as Bond, and Starting to Get Reek

This past episode of Game of Thrones was incredible. I laughed. I cried. Well I didn't really cry because it's a TV show and I'm an adult, but watching Alfie Allen cry was not easy. That man already has a more famous sister, he shouldn't have to go through much more heartache.

Regardless, we forage on, deeper into the Benioff- and Weiss-created world of Thrones, in which Sansa really does get married to Ramsay (instead of fake-Arya-but-actually-Sansa's-friend-Jeyne) and Littlefinger basically wins half the realm in two swoops. Always swooping, that one.

Shithead.

Episode 5 - Valyria's History, Grey Worm's Love Problems, and the Rangers Game

The past episode of Game of Thrones wasn't good. There, I said it. Episode 5, "Kill the Boy," somehow managed to be both dull and infuriating at the same time. Dany barbecued a dude and it was all downhill from there. Fortunately, I watched the Rangers and Capitals in overtime in Game 7 during the recording of this podcast, so at least there was some excitement somewhere.

I also rant on Grey Worm's subplot, Jorah's conflation with a book character, and what the fuck is happening in the Iron Islands.

Episode 4 - History of Meereen, Awesomeness of Bronn, and a Weakling Fight



Toppa the mornin' to ya! [Read that in Bronn's King's Landing accent]. Welcome to another episode of Bone Up On Your Thrones, the one and only podcast that is created by me. This episode contains some BOOK SPOILERS, so watch out. But honestly, they're kind of obvious at this point in the show, and if you haven't figured them out, you need to bone up on your Thrones.

Yup.

I just dropped the name of the podcast into the show description.

Holy shit that's cool.

Anyway, I also discuss the history of Meereen and why they're so upset about Dany's conquest, go over some great parts of the show, and take a great question from my friend about who wins in a fight between 4 of the weakest male characters in the show (besides Robin Arryn, because that kid's a fuckboy).
