Special thanks to Dave Dillon for commissioning the 1980s hit television series, Magnum P.I. We weren’t sure what to expect, but after seeing the two part series premiere, “Don’t Eat the Snow in Hawaii”, we’re ready to recognize the greatness of the Mustachioed One. From war scenes that Punch waaayyyy above their weight, to Magnum perving on French Stews, we found the series consistently entertaining.
Jim and A.Ron are not sure what to make of Arya’s plot tonight during the latest episode of Game of Thrones, “No One”. And yes, while the Mountain wrecking and Sandor chopping was admittedly cool, and the 30 seconds of Dany kind of made up for Tyrion’s stale comedy stylings, and far be it from us to look askance at any scene where Jaime and Brienne make moon eyes at each other and speak of honor, we’re kind of bummed that the King and High Sparrow seems to have dumped a bucket of cold water on our Cleganebowl hopes. No man is as accursed as a Hypeslayer, Tommen.
Jim and A.Ron consider some book-based speculation and theories from the latest episode of Game of Thrones!

A.Ron and Cecily cover the latest episode of Showtime’s Penny Dreadful, “No Beast So Fierce”. Also, A.Ron does terrible impressions and Cecily recounts the time she was propositioned as a creature of the night at 8:30 in the morning on the mean streets of Indianapolis. Plus feedback!
We’re here to get HYPE and talk about Game of Thrones latest episode, “The Broken Man”. The big questions: what’s next for Sandor? Does it involve a reunion with his bigger, badder, deader brother? What the seven hells did we just see happen with Arya? Was that even Arya? How is Jaime going to flush the Blackfish down the toilet? What’s Sansa up to, and is it going to be the worst or greatest thing ever? So much to discuss, and you get an extra long podcast of analysis and feedback from our fellow fans to help you get ready for the wars episodes to come.
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!

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!
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!
Jim and A.Ron give their snap observations and opinions of the latest Game of Thrones episode, “Blood of My Blood”. One the one hand, it’s kind of classic “move the pieces around the chessboard” episode, but on the other hand, anyone who has said politics is boring has never seen a stump speech given while mounted on a dragon. Also, sword heists, Waif Watch, and The Bronn That is Promised! We’ll be back Tuesday with a whole lot more podcast and a big old bag of feedback. See you then!
