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!

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

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!

Penny Earful - 304 – “A Blade of Grass”

A.Ron and Cecily are impressed with the levels of craft employed in the latest episode of Showtime’s Penny Dreadful, “A Blade of Grass”. And by craft we mean both acting, cinematography, set design, and of course, witch. Rory Kinnear and Ava Green both attempt to blow each other off screen in a very tightly wound bottle episode, and we’re the richer for it. Join us as we try to unravel the complex mythology being built upon this season, with a little help from the feedback of our fellow fans.

HOTD: A House of the Dragon Podcast - 605 – The Door

Another fantastic episode of HBO’s Game of Thrones, “The Door”, has a ton of the trademark shocking character deaths, and… time travel? Some of you are frightened of the possibility, many more are excited, but it’s certainly an intriguing concept that has us re-examining historical events in a Bran(d) new light. Other topics considered; Sansa’s mild distrust of Jon, the dueling Red Priestesses, a hostile Greyjoy takeover, a mummer’s farce that Arya is not too fond of, and crazy bananas action North o’ the Wall. All this and just vast, unimaginable quantities of feedback, coming right at you.

Bald Move Pulp - Banshee – 408 – Requiem

A.Ron and Cecily bid a fond farewell to Banshee as it, despite all fears to the contrary, manages to pull out of its near fatal tailspin long enough to land a fairly emotionally satisfying, and undeniably badass, series finale. We talk about the many fights, goodbyes, plus the tears and blood shed in this packed episode “Requiem”, and we give our fellow #fanshees their final say as well. But mostly, I think we’ll all remember one simple truth: A.Ron was right.

And if that’s not enough, on Friday you can explore the mind bending revelations of tonight with the help of book-inspired insight and lore, if you’re not adverse to spoilers, that is.

Penny Earful - 303 – “Good and Evil Braided Be”

Cecily and A.Ron are very impressed with the latest episode of Showtime’s Penny Dreadful, “Good and Evil Braided Be”. Full of intra-vampiral intrigue, our favorite werewolf being possibly bewitched by Hecate (with the good hair), surprising revelations and connections to characters and their histories, and an intriguing — and bloody — proto-feminist plot for world dominance, there’s a lot to like and talk about. Join us for a discussion of the episode with a little help from feedback from our fellow fans!
