Craster & the Cold Gods Jul 31, 2023

Show notes

A name that evokes... well, quite a lot. None of it good, but much of it mysterious. Someone with such a connection to the Others, unlike any we've seen elsewhere, deserves a look, as awkward as it may be. Few characters leave as many unanswered questions!

Under the Dragons: House Hightower (45 - 129 AC) Jul 24, 2023

Show notes

In this episode we've got the scheming of Lord Donnel the Delayer, the end of Maegor and the reign of Jaehaerys and Viserys. Questions regarding the siege and death of Septon Moon, the voyage of the Sun Chaser and Prince Daeron the Daring. Of course there's some Otto, Alicent and Hoberrrt too!

Under the Dragons: House Hightower (1 - 45 AC) Jul 17, 2023

Show notes

Aegon I, Aenys and Maegor were all crowned at Oldtown, and all of them embroiled the city in the doings of the newly forged Iron Throne. The largest city in the realm and center of the Faith underwent serious changes after the coming of the dragons. The various schemes and matters of religion that made the lives of the Lords of the Hightower very tricky, which of course makes for some great stories.

The Free City of Pentos Jun 29, 2023

Show notes

The #1 destination for exiles and closest Free city to King's Landing has a story all its own. Did it exist before the Freehold? What state is it in now and why is it important? Lots on Tyrion, Dany, Illyrio, the Tattered Prince and more.

A Neducation Jun 05, 2023

Show notes

How Ned treats his children (and children in general) is a big part of who he is, but his own father Lord Rickard was quite different. In many ways, Ned's upbringing was not at all typical for a Stark, and those differences played a large role in Robert's Rebellion and A Song of Ice and Fire. We explore Ned's early life with his family at Winterfell, then in the Vale with Robert, Jon Arryn and many others.

The Isle of Naath May 26, 2023

Show notes

The isle of Naath is unique and unlike anything we’ve seen in the Known World, populated by extreme pacifists. However, their island is naath for the faint of heart, as it is also populated by extremely poisonous butterflies.

Highgarden May 22, 2023

Show notes

A place so rich Catelyn calls their wealth "fabled". They have so much food they supplied... all of King's Landing(!) It's said to grow directly out of the land and is considered the most beautiful castle in the realm. We discuss which POV's might go there, the ancient history and lore, that time it was burned (could that happen again?!) and quite a bit more.
