A GAME OF THRONES PODCAST FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO TALK ABOUT SPOILERS

With Joanna Robinson from Vanity Fair, Dave Gonzales from Geek.com and Neil Miller from Film School Rejects!

WARNING

This podcast includes some occasional cussing, but all three hosts are alive at the end of it. It covers SEASON 5 EPISODE 10 “Mother’s Mercy”

This week, we’ve worked in the entertainment “journalism” world for awhile now, and we thing Entertainment Weekly is IN ON IT. That’s right, we’re 98% sure that not all the cliffhangers we saw in this finale end in death. Like, serious death. Besides #ParadeOfLies, this very unstructured podcast throws out the chronological breakdown of the episode to worry and speculate about macro and micro issues, from “does the HBO production team know what to do with these literary characters?” to “Where did Pod go?” Joanna has a little bird in Belfast, Neil is pretty sure Winds of Winter is already finished and Da7e is wondering why so few of our characters actually played the Game of Thrones this season.

This podcast includes some occasional cussing, but only a few charred little girls. It covers SEASON 5 EPISODE 9 “Dance of Dragons”

This week, Neil has returned on the back of Drogon! It took him awhile to find us because of the oncoming winter, so we had to meet him at the second biggest fire the North has ever seen: the one where Wun Wun dries his clothes. Mace Tyrell is back and full of song, Arya has a really good chance at mutilating a guy’s junk next week, and Olly’s Gonna Olly at The Wall. This week’s Dorne tomfoolery has the hosts wondering if it can be saved or if this whole season was a waste of Dorne time, we talk about burning little girls and just what that much King’s blood can do.  Finally, after a discussion of oddly poor special effects, we all realize that there’s way too much to do in the finale.

This podcast includes some occasional cussing, but no more than usual. It covers SEASON 5 EPISODE 8 “Hardhome”

This week, Neil is down with some non-greyscale sickness (dude wouldn’t tell us if it WAS greyscale anyway), so Joanna and Da7e attack a very substantive episode of Game of Thrones from as many sides as possible. What dark fate awaits Stannis in the snow? Why doesn’t Tyrion mention Dorne when talking to Dany? Jonana updates Da7e on the whereabouts of Varys and his book monologue and Da7e is filled with questions and unhelpful observations. No one steps too far onto Neil’s terrace of the Crazytown Citadel, but both parties do their best trying to figure out what Arya’s up to in the next weeks and guessing what the Night’s King’s name is.

This podcast includes some occasional cussing, but no more than usual. It covers SEASON 5 EPISODE 7 “The Gift.”

This week, all our hosts dream that they are old and have all the time in the world to discuss Game of Thrones. We can’t get through a single scene without having some questions about execution or some speculation about how this contributes to the end of the season. Casting for Season 6 of the show has begun and we might put a little too much stock on what IMDB says about the tenth episode of the season. Da7e gets a quick geography lesson, Neil convinces everyone he knows better about the Dorne plotline and we all wonder if we’ve seen the last of Benjen Stark.
