On this episode of Empire Business we introduce Sandra Barry, the woman who is holding down our Bald Move’s social media fort. Chances are, if you’ve followed our Twitter, Facebook or Instagram accounts, you’ve seen her work. She’s sitting in today to present her analysis of our last few months of social media interactions and discuss the social challenges and opportunities facing a small company like ours.
HBO’s Game of Thrones episode 706, “Beyond the Wall” has been extremely polarizing for all of us fans, which, say what you will, isn’t something that you want to be saying about the penultimate episode of the penultimate season of the biggest TV show in the history of the world. Are people too focused on picking nits? Or has the storytelling really gone off the rails this season? Whether we’re seeing the first signs of shark jumping or just hitting a rough patch remains to be seen, but we discuss the good, bad, and ugly of this week, including the many fine conversations between our heroes, saying good bye to characters both red shirted and beloved, and arrive at the conclusion of the fairly silly plan to convince Kings Landing to join in the fight against the Army of the Dead. Next week will be better. Please?

The next chapter in the Bad Guy series has begun! This time we’re playing as an actual bad guy which should probably make playing the bad guy pretty easy.
A.Ron and Jim are loving this episode of HBO’s Game of Thrones, “Beyond the Wall”, that is admittedly about 20% ridiculous and 80% pure awesome. I know that 20% is going to bother a lot of you guys and gals, but come on! So many epic things are happening! Ice zombies! Dragons! Ice zombie dragons?!? Don’t worry about the logic of Jon’s plan, or his idea of fighting a ridiculous single man rear guard, or the Night King’s questionable targeting decisions. In our book, when Game of Thrones follows the Rule of Cool, it tends to rule plain and simple. Tell us why we’re wrong! We’ll talk about it, at length, Tuesday. See you then!

Jim and A.Ron consider some book-based speculation and theories from the latest episode of Game of Thrones! If you’re a show-only watcher who doesn’t want any spoilers, it’s best to just skip this one. Need to catch up? Here’s a Tinfoil SpoiLore archive of previous podcasts by topic. Each link has a time code listed so you can jump right to the tinfoil topic of the week for your convenience and listening pleasure.
This episode is mostly spent answering your questions which have a lot to do with nazis and TV. I guess that’s what we signed up for.
Jim and A.Ron try to talk about an incredibly entertaining episode of HBO’s Game of Thrones, “Eastwatch”, while also dealing the the fact that the main thrust of the plot is dubious at best. And we’re not talking about jetpacks or wonky numbers of ships and wagons, we’re talking about the main mission North of the Wall. Why does anyone think this is a good idea? On the other hand, we’ve come around on the Arya and Sansa intrigue, and there is a whole lot else to like… Gendry and Jon reprising Robert and Ned’s adventures. Davos showing off his sweet smuggling skills. Drogon doing what Drogon does best, looking majestic AF and generally being jaw dropping in every scene he’s in, including the one where he gets his snout snuggled. That’s impressive range for a fake dragon, ya’ll. All this, plus we got more emails than Davos has bad crab meat, and we’re back Friday to do it all over again, SpoiLORE style. See you then!
