Lunchtime! Looking for a psychedelic trip? This is a lunch to watch as your beloved and befuddled hosts work through some technical difficulties at the very beginning of the video stream. Jim is still working on making a back catalog available on Patreon. The Amazon Football Conspiracy goes deeper than you think. We get a professional revision of the Emmy’s and find out which shows Jim and A.Ron are looking forward to.
The feedback bag is bulging, time to cut it open! A helpful listener clears up the “Yes, sir” vs. “Yes, ma’am” business. An observant listener points out the title of the show is actually GOT: HOTD, so it is totally appropriate to ask people if they have HOTD. And a confused Jim wants to know what “riding a dragon” truly means.
Is Daemon an accidental genius? Will Rhaenyra learn to play the perceptions game? Why is this Anthony’s favorite episode yet? Then Kavita Mudan Finn answers a question about perceptions of sex in the medieval world.
Written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson comes a movie starring Joaquin Phoenix, a troubled ex-soldier, and Phillip Seymour Hoffman, a cult leader. Anderson denies that that the cult in question is Scientology, but you watch the movie and try to tell us it isn’t. Amy Adams and Laura Dern also star in Anderson’s favorite movie out of his own catalog. And we wonder, did Tom Cruise ever have to go through this auditing process?
Rhaenyra is swiping left on the lords of the land during her bachelorette tour of the realm. Daemon makes a gaudy return to the Red Keep, which means trouble is afoot. Between the late-night trysts and ‘low-born Mardi Gras’, tensions are running high. Explore the angst and more in this laugh-out-loud episode from Bald Move.
Take a big gulp of elf juice before diving into episode three feedback. Lore-bombs are going off with the addition to show-only characters. When the entire show is based off of some appendices, you need to get creative. Want more lore? Check out the Lorehounds and get the inside scoop for all things Middle Earth.

The writer for the High Valyrian dialogue between Daemon and Rhaenyra joins Double Dragon. What do these characters really say? Do the subtitles capture the subtleties of the language? Then medievalists Kavita Mudan Finn and Iain MacInnes answer listener questions about the history behind the show.
Full bellies, rolling caravans, and epic horse riding for the ages. Between the great visuals, fully developed languages, and fun with the Harfoots, we’re ramping up to the halfway point of this season. We get a confusing glimpse of mean-Galadriel and an exciting look at what the Harfoots (Harfeet?) are up to. Want more lore? Check out the Lorehounds and get the inside scoop for all things Middle Earth.
