About this episode

A PODCAST FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE ALL CAUGHT UP AND WANT TO TALK ABOUT SPOILERS

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

SPOILERS START AT 1:52

This week, Da7e and Joanna won't touch real life rape culture with a six-foot pole made of Crow's Arms from prospective cannibal House Thenn, but they will discuss this fictional world of Westeros we're seeing on screen: does geography matter? What's being abbreviated, and to make room for what? Da7e wants to know when "Eyepatch Greyjoy" is coming into play and Joanna has intriguing answers! That PLUS: An actor cast as a character we like shows his face, Da7e unsuccessfully proposes a super-character, Howland Reed is compared to Yoda, and do we really need Lady Stoneheart at this point?

Follow Joanna (@jowrotethis) and Da7e (@da7e) on Twitter!
