HOTD: A House of the Dragon Podcast - 607 – The Broken Man – Instant Take

Jim and A.Ron GOT HYPE!!! for the latest episode of HBO’s Game of Thrones, “The Broken Man”. Give a listen, and see if you’re hype meter doesn’t peg as well. So much to like. Jaime, Olena, and the Blackfish were on point tonight. The Double Ds built a draw bride. Some people live, some people die, and then some person is dying? Another shocker, or audience manipulation? We’ll have to wait a frustrating 7 days to find out, but in the meanwhile let’s debate! We’ll be our main cast a day early (Monday afternoon), so it’s off to the races for feedback, and of course we’ll be back Friday to collectively lose our minds in the SpoiLore podcast!

Bald Move Prestige - Magnolia (1999)

Special thanks to Lauren, Anne, and Rick who chipped in to commission this podcast on Magnolia for Alex Myers as a Christmas (!!!) present. Jim and I had never seen Magnolia, the Paul Thomas Anderson classic before now, and wow is it a doozy. Starring greats such as William H. Macy, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Julianne Moore, to name just a few, it involves a day in the life of a dozen or so characters on a collision course with fate and coincidence, and what they’ll learn about themselves and each other along the way. Fueled by raw emotion and melodrama, we were intrigued by the complex tale being woven before our eyes. If you haven’t seen it, check it out before we spoil it for you on this podcast, because it’s an amazing film.

Penny Earful - 305 – “This World is Our Hell”

A.Ron and Cecily break down the action in the rare (perhaps singular) Vanessa free episode of Showtime’s Penny Dreadful, “This World is Our Hell”. Ethan is done with forgiveness, Rusk is done with genteel notions of rules of engagement and law enforcement in general, and Ethan’s father is done with his son’s stubborn refusal to atone for the sins of his bloody past. Also, snakes!

HOTD: A House of the Dragon Podcast - 606 – Blood of My Blood

In this podcast we discuss the latest episode of HBO’s Game of Thrones series, “Blood of My Blood”. We consider the many visions Bran experienced as he “becomes” the Three Eyed Raven, the surprising appearance of a Stark long since lost, the fizzle of a show down between the Sparrows and the Lannister/Tyrell alliance, Arya choosing sides, Gilly not passing the muster, and Dany making yet another inspiring speech. All this, plus tons and tons of feedback from your fellow fans. See you Friday for the SpoiLore edition, where we delve deep into the prophecies, visions, and tinfoil theories spawned by the books and lore behind A Song of Ice and Fire!
