About this episode

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!

If you’re looking for spoiler-free dissection of the highest caliber, you’re looking for A CAST OF KINGS (click there)

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.
