STORM OF SPOILERS – “Meet the Beetles”

Joanna Robinson and Dave Gonzales
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)

This week, Da7e and Joanna don’t know where Neil is. Maybe he’s getting that boat ready for our impending #OnABoat celebration. They make do without him through dueling monologues on trusting your heroes, adapting a book into other media while catering to both the fans and the newbies, the direction of Alex Graves, gross Littlefinger nicknames and prognostication about upcoming battles knowing how TV deals with foreshadowing death and heroes.

Somehow, they don’t mention Arya’s laugh.
