THE WATCH: House Of The Dragon

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

Welcome to this bonus episode of The Spill!

This month’s episode is all about the Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon on Binge.

In this episode, we discuss why the casting for the series was so fraught, what all those big plot twists were really building to, and how incest can sometimes be…hot? (Still on the fence about that one).

We also dissect what the series says about motherhood and female friendships, and disgree with the show writers including one of the most upsetting scenes we have ever seen on television.
