About this episode

Edited audio from the livestream on Jan 15, 2019. With guests Steven Attewell and Lady Gwyn, we discuss Jaehaerys & Alysanne's version of the Tower of Joy, full of clues for the ASOIAF version. We also talk about the Golden Wedding, the War for the White Cloaks, Rogar Baratheon, and quite a lot about Young Griff.
