The Stark Raven Mad SRMies: Awards for Game of Thrones Season 8! Apr 30, 2020

This episode of Stark Raven Mad: A Game of Thrones Podcast is our long put off SRMies. This is our annual-ish awards for Game of Thrones where we look back on the season and hand out a lot of fake honors. Apparently we were so put off by how Season 8 played out it took us a full year to revisit the topic, but here we are.

A calendar year and 6 weeks of quarantine later we are here. This episode was recorded live via zoom since we are all stuck at home due to covid-19 and the sound has all of the interruptions you would expect. We do plan to do SRMies for the full Game of Thrones Series, but who knows when that’s going to happen. If the Winds of Winter is ever released, we will be here to cover it. And when the prequel series arrives, we will be here. Just don’t set your clock to us.

SRM: Second Thoughts on The Iron Throne May 23, 2019

This episode of Stark Raven Mad: A Game of Thrones Podcast is our second thoughts on Season 8 Episode 6 titled “The Iron Throne”. We look back on not just the season finale, but the last episode of Game of Thrones ever. It may be the end of the road for this incarnation of Game of Thrones, but Stark Raven Mad will live on. We have our SRMies episodes, season retrospectives, and lots of other special epsisodes coming to bridge the gap until the Winds of Winter and the Long Night. GoT Thoughts?

We return with Part 2 of the 2017 SRMies! The Stark Raven Mad awards for Game of Thrones Season 7. Who will take home the gold in categories such as “Rookie of the Year”, “Fredo Corleone I’m Smaht And I Want Respect”, “Best Fight”, “You Did What Exactly?” and many more. This episode is broken up into two parts, so be sure you go back and listen to part 1. Thank you to David Donnella who has been a huge part of this podcast over the years. We hope to skype him in to future podcasts and wish him well in LA. For now, his watch has ended.

SRM Presents: The 2017 SRMies! Awards for Game of Throne Season 7 (Part 1) Nov 01, 2017

We are back for the first time since that epic Season 7 finale and dressed to the nines for a very special night. That’s right it’s the 2017 SRMies! The Stark Raven Mad awards for Game of Thrones Season 7. Who will take home the gold in categories such as “Rookie of the Year”, “Fredo Corleone I’m Smaht And I Want Respect”, “Best Fight”, “You Did What Exactly?” and many more. This episode is broken up into two parts. Collect them all!

SRM S07E07: There And Back Aegon Aug 28, 2017

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 7 episode 7 of Game of Thrones titled “The Dragon and the Wolf”. The longest episode of the show yet delivered a lot of great moments in an overall good season finale. If they stick to their plan we are only looking at 6 episodes left to tell this story. Based on the way things moved this season, that seems doable. We saw only one major character bite it (at least on screen. We think the others survive). We saw some really tense moments. Some big “reveals”, but still not to the people that need to hear them. Overall a great season. The show might not be back until 2019, so stick with SRM for the occasional recaps, SRMies, and other special episodes including live shows in Philly. Thanks for listening!

SRM S07E06: Walker’s Day Out Aug 21, 2017

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers season seven episode six of Game of Thrones titled “Death is the Enemy”. Another epic episode in a season of epic-ness. After years of waiting for it we finally see dragons and white walkers battle a bit. We took some losses in the process and though some damage was done, maybe a loss overall, but it was great to watch. Meanwhile in Winterfell Sansa and Arya are getting into some shit. Thank you David and Robyn for the laughs.

SRM S07E05: Started From Flea Bottom Aug 14, 2017

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Game of Thrones Season 7 Episode 5 titled “Eastwatch”. Another big episode with people zipping across Westeros via warp tunnels. Lots of reunions this episode. Big team ups. Impossible missions. Though there was lots going on “Eastwatch” was still a lot of setup for what’s to come in the final TWO episodes.

SRM S07E04: Be A Dragon Aug 07, 2017

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 7 Episode 4 titled “The Spoils of War”. In what was the best episode of Season 7 and arguably one of the best of the series, Dany followed the late Olenna Tyrell’s advice and stopped listening to clever men and embraced the dragon. Arya returned home and gave us one of the better examples yet of how skilled a fighter she’s become. Cersei Lannister paid their debt.

Lots going on and still so much more to come. Just four episodes left!

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers season 7 episode 2 of Game of Thrones titled “Stormborn”. Another relatively calm episode overall with a lot of pieces still being put into place. The storytelling has definitely picked up, but this episode was a bit short on action. The end made up for that a bit, though it was a bit too Pirates of the Carribbeany for some of us.

No worries, because SRM is here to walk you through all the characters and story lines so that you’re good and fresh heading into Season 7. There’s a bit of speculating sprinkled throughout, but be sure to join us for next week’s Iron Bank of Braavos Presents the SRM Stone Cold Locks of 2017. We’ll each pick 5 things we expect to happen in Season 7, assign a point value, and check in through the season. Thanks to Rob Alesiani, Whitney Harris, and Frank Farrell for the laughs. Just two more weeks…

SRM: Should Have Gone Home Mar 21, 2017

And we’re back! Although maybe we shouldn’t be just yet. In this episode we talk about some Game of Thrones show and casting news and that big dumb block of ice. That’s pretty much it, but we somehow talk for nearly an hour and have fun doing it. We plug a the new WooderCooler podcast, “Should Have Gone Home” with Robyn Cartlidge and Sean Sullivan, which is all about fun drinking stories. After listening to this episode of SRM, I think we all should have gone home.

This episode of Stark Raven Mad is part 2 of our annual Game of Thrones awards show.

SRM S06E10: Queen’s Landing Jun 27, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers the season finale of Game of Thrones Season 6 titled “The Winds of Winter.” An amazing end to a fantastic season. A King in the North, a Queen in the South, A Queen in the Easter that is headed West… and we STILL have to contend with the White Walkers. Season 7 is going to be IN – SANE. Thanks to Kevin Pettit for the chat. We’ll be back on Tuesday with a full crew looking back on The Winds of Winter in Second Thoughts.

In this episode of Stark Raven Mad we take another look at Game of Thrones Season Six Episode 9 titled “Battle of the Bastards”.

SRM S06E09: Dogs of War Jun 20, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 6 Episode 9 of Game of Thrones titled “Battle of the Bastards”.

Thanks to David, Whitney, Frank and Kevin for the chat.

SRM Second Thoughts on “No One” Jun 15, 2016

In this episode of Stark Raven Mad: A Game of Thrones Podcast we take another look at episode #8 in season 6, “No One”. We take another pass at each story line, but pay particular attention to the cryptic rumor/secret between Qyburn and Cersei and what tricks she might have up her sleeve as well as the coming Battle of the Bastards. We also discuss Lady Stoneheart and whether there is still hope or not on that character appearing. If you are not familiar, don’t google it. We were careful to talk in vague terms.

SRM S06E08: Mountain Rage Jun 13, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 6 Episode 8 of Game of Thrones Titled “No One”. Some big moves, but still a lot of set-up for the final two episodes. This didn’t keep the episode from having great moments or tension throughout. The next two should be pretty epic even by Season 6 standards. Thanks to Whitney Harris, David Donnella, Caitlin Weigel and Frank Farrell for the chat.

SRM Second Thoughts on “The Broken Man” Jun 08, 2016

In this episode of Stark Raven Mad we take another look at Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 7 titled “The Broken Man”.

Just Mike and David for this one, but it’s not quantity. It’s quality, baby.

SRM S06E07: Stray Dog Jun 06, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 6 Episode 7 of Game of Thrones titled “The Broken Man”. We got two big character returns, took a tour of the North, increased the tension in Kings Landing and watched Arya not watch her back. We’ll be recording Second Thoughts on Tuesday. Email SRMPodcast@gmail.com or tweet @SRMPodcast. Thanks to Whitney, David and Rob for the chat.

SRM Second Thoughts on “Blood of My Blood” Jun 01, 2016

In this episode of Stark Raven Mad we take another look at Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 6 “Blood of My Blood”. We discuss Margaery’s true intentions, the return of Benjen Stark and what that could mean, the twisted mess the Riverlands is about to become and more.

SRM S06E06: Start Your Benjens! May 30, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 6 Episode 6 of Game of Thrones titled “Blood of My Blood”. Another great episode in another fantastic season of Game of Thrones. Big things just keep coming from episode to episode. We saw people we haven’t seen in years tonight. One since the very first episode. We have four episodes left and damn. If there are four left what else could be coming. Thanks Whitney Harris and Rob Alesiani for the chat.

SRM Second Thoughts on “The Door” May 25, 2016

In this episode of Stark Raven Mad: A Game of Thrones podcast we take another look at Episode #5 titled “The Door”. We spend a good amount of time talking more about the wall and the impacts of Bran’s new abilities with some more attention paid to other story lines, pick our breakout stars for Episode 6 and more. Thanks to David Donnella and Hunter Steffes for the chat.

SRM S06E05: Warging Out May 23, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 6 Episode 5 titled “The Door”. From the episode titles I usually try to guess what they could focus around and I did not get this one at all. Great episode. Heartbreaking ending. Luckily SRM is here to talk you through it. Thanks David Donnella, Caitlin Weigel, Rob Alesiani, and Frank Farrell for the chat. We’ll be warging back into this episode on Tuesday. Email us any thoughts or questions to SRMPodcast@gmail.com.

SRM Second Thoughts on “Book of the Stranger” May 19, 2016

In this episode of Stark Raven Mad: A Game of Thrones podcast we take another look at Episode #4 titled “Book of the Stranger”. David is still filling in as host while I’m on vacation and is joined by Caitlin Weigel and Rob Alesiani. They talk theories about what’s to come, pick some breakout stars for Episode #5 and more.

SRM S06E04: Come and See May 16, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 6 episode 4 of Game of Thrones titled “Book of the Stranger”. There’s doesn’t seem to be a corner of Westeros or Essos that isn’t gearing up for war and it’s great. Petyr and Sweet Robin are headed to Winterfell, Sansa and Jon are headed to Winterfell, the Tyrells are headed to Kings Landing, Dany has a new Dothraki army… the wars are coming.

SRM: Second Thoughts on “Oathbreaker” May 11, 2016

In this episode of Stark Raven Mad, David and Mike look back on Oathbreaker for some more in depth theorizing on where we go from here based on Oathbreaker’s events, introduce the “Duck Tales Check-in”, pick breakout starts for Episode #4 and more.

SRM S06E03: Windbreaker May 09, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 6 Episode 3 of Game of Thrones titled “Oathbreaker”. First impressions in this episode with some brief discussion. Much more theorizing in our Second Thoughts podcast which will be out on Wednesday. Overall great episode with one of the best fight scenes the show has scene. Some fun, but odd moments. Lots of set up for things to come, hopefully sooner than later.

SRM: Second Thoughts on “Home” May 04, 2016

This is the first of our mid-week episodes we’re calling “Second Thoughts” at least for now. We revisit Season 6 Episode 2 of Game of Thrones to offer some second thoughts on the episode now that we’ve had time to digest everything. We offer our ever changing predictions for what’s to come as well as pick our “breakout stars” for Episode 3. In classic podcasting fashion, I’m about to apologize for the audio quality. It was a perfect storm of sound issues. Did the best to clean it up and hope you enjoy it.

SRM S06E02: Rise and Shine May 02, 2016

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 6 Episode 2 of Game of Thrones titled “Home”. Easily one of the best episodes of the series. So much packed into this episode, yet it didn’t really feel like nothing was given too much or not enough time. Everything was so economical in terms of moving things forward. And yes, it happened. Pretty much as most suspected it would. Great episode. Looking very forward to next week.

SRM S06E01: Game of Crones Apr 29, 2016

We’re back! We finally have some new material to cover. This episode of SRM covers Season 6 Episode 1 of Game of Thrones titled “The Red Woman”. Pretty much a check-in sort of episode in many respects, with some pretty big moments. Dorne definitely had the most action of the night with everything else just kind of moving some pieces into place. No real movement on the Stone Cold Locks yet for anyone, but nothing outright thwarted either. Thanks to David Donnella, Rob Alesiani, Whitney Harris and Hunter Steffes for the chat. Apologies to: Eazy E, Dog Rescuers, Weekend At Bernies, Older women comfortable with their bodies, Blind People, John Steinbeck, and people that recently broke up.

The panel made up of David Donnella, Whitney Harris, Corin Wells, Frank Farrell, Caitlin Weigel and Hunter Steffes prepared their pitch for a Game of Thrones spin-off series. They then presented their pitch to me, studio mogul Mike Marbach, and I asked them questions as I tried to decide whose show would get the green light. We had feature films, sitcoms, dramas, reality tv and more. Lots of fun stuff and, like any competition, had its fair share of comedy, drama, twists and turns. We also finally announce the winner of our July contest.We will be back soon with a special Fuck, Marry, Kill episode. Until then, enjoy this LIVE episode of Stark Raven Mad!

In this episode of Stark Raven Mad we are handing out the coveted SRMies! It’s our award show honoring the best and worst of Season 5 of Game of Thrones.

SRM: Game of Thrones Season 5 Wrap-up (Part 1) Jun 22, 2015

This episode of Stark Raven Mad is part one of our Game of Thrones Season 5 wrap-up episode. Yes, I said “part one”. It has been cut into two parts, because it went nearly two and half hours. We discuss just about everything about season 5 that we could. There’s a bit more “in the books” talk than I like, but it was relevant at times. Overall an entertaining season, but at least this configuration of the panel agreed that it was likely the weakest of the 5 seasons. It had some really, really great moments for sure, but on the whole it was lacking. Especially after how tight season 4 was on every level. Part two will be released on June 29th. Enjoy!

SRM S05E10: A Stannis of Unfortunate Events Jun 15, 2015

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers episode 10, the season finale, of Game of Thrones entitled “Mother’s Mercy”. This episode still had me feeling a bit empty. A lot of things almost happening. The episode is full of cliffhangers. Previous seasons, though they laid out things that were to come, this season didn’t really give finality to much. Part of that is due to the way they’ve trained us in this show. That being… if you don’t see it happen, it’s reasonable to assume it’s not the case. Whatever “it” might be. Overall though, a very entertaining episode.

Congrats to our contest winner @BeccaLeap. She’ll be receiving a set of Game of Thrones Mugs or Tumblers. We’re going to do another contest and will announce that on our 6/22 Season 5 Review podcast. As always, thanks for listening. If you like the show, please rate/review on iTunes!

SRM S05E09: The Dorne Ultimatum Jun 08, 2015

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 5 Episode 9 of Game of Thrones titled “Dance With Dragons”. Overall a really good episode, but not as overall entertaining to me as episode 8. If I had to guess though Episode 10 will be on par with last year’s finale. We have lots of shoes that need to drop and if even half of them do… lots of shit’s gonna change. Again. CONTEST! For June we are offering up a set of Game of Thrones Mugs / Tumblers. To enter all you need do is engage with us on Twitter or Instagram @SRMPodcast.

SRM S05E08: Come at me, Crow! Jun 01, 2015

This episode of Stark Raven Mad covers Season 5 Episode 8 titled “Hardhome”. Good lord. Anyone that’s been complaining about a season in which there’s been a lot of inaction was just silenced. The last 20 or so minutes was some of the best 20 minutes this show has put together. Silly at times, sure, but overall pretty fantastic.

Congrats to @FlyBoy80498 for winning our May contest! He will receive a copy of both The Hedge Knight and The Sworn Sword graphic novels.

Gettin’ Close With The Mountain! May 15, 2015

Hafthór Júlíus Björnsson, AKA “The Mountain” from Game of Thrones, is in Philly for the weekend. He’s going to be appearing at the Philly Ren Faire May 16th and 17th. You’ll have the chance to meet him, get your picture taken and if you planned ahead you’ll get to train and fight with him! He was awesome enough to give me some time to chat about the Ren Faire, Game of Thrones and being one of the world’s strongest humans. He also gave me one of my favorite things ever- an SRM tag that you’ll now probably hear at the start of every episode.

The song you hear at the top is an original composition by Fred Brown and Drew Evans specifically for SRM. So a big shout out and thanks to those guys! Also, check out lastnamepoems.tumblr.com. Fred writes poems using only the last names from a particular group/team of people. It’s neat. Check it out.

SRM S05E02: Qyburn Gets Ahead Apr 20, 2015

This episode of SRM covers Season 5 Episode 2 of Game of Thrones. In an episode that took us all over Westeros and Esos we got to check in and also progress several storylines. Lots of ups and downs for characters tonight, but we know very well that the highs for any character typically don’t come without a price.

#TBT to #GameOfThrones Season 3 Bits + Contest! Apr 16, 2015

These are two short audio sketches made for the podcast inspired by a couple different things from Season 3 of Game of Thrones. The first is Podrick’s condoms. There was a running joke through Season 3 about Podrick and the whores of Westeros. The second is “Craster’s Keep” which is a “sitcom” based on the night’s watch staying at Craster’s and dealing with all of his rules.

SRM S05E01: Hizdahr The Lorax Apr 13, 2015

And we’re back! After nearly a year of waiting Game of Thrones returns and SRM is there to spend most of the time talking about Sansa again. Not really. This episode covers Season 5 Epsiode 1 entitled “The Wars to Come”. General consensus was a it was a good episode, but a bit calm after last season’s game changing moves. The title of the episode is pretty telling that that would probably be the case. We’re setting everything up. This podcast got a bit messy at times, but we’ll do what we can to reign it in so things are a bit less clunky moving forward. That said, it’s a great discussion that’s full of a lot of really great points, predictions and bits from everyone in what is probably our longest podcast yet. Plus, you get the sweet sounds of Roose and The Bolt Hens playing us out. Enjoy, rate and review!

SRM: Game of Thrones Season 5 “A Day in the Life” Feb 10, 2015

For better or worse, the SRM crew is back in action. Tonight we thought we’d get together and watch the “Day in the Life” documentary and then talk about it… only there wasn’t much to talk about. So topics bounced around. A lot. This is our first podcast since earning “Best Podcast” at the 2015 Philly Comedy Awards and it’s not exactly our finest hour. Definitely some rust, but we’ll Hopefully shaking it off with a couple episodes before Season 5 begins on April 12th.

SRM S04E10: The Children Jun 16, 2014

In a season with many epic adventures, incredible spectacle and huge story developments this episode seemed to pack in more of each than probably the entire series combined. It was one of the best episodes of the series if not the best episode. Though some of my Stone Cold Lock of The Century of The Weeks still need time to play out, we saw many parts get hit right on the head. Even somewhat down the dialogue at times. We also some some earlier predictions that, though they seemed far fetched at the time, come to pass. Still, bottom line is if you bet on this particular episode you lost a lot of money. Regardless- AMAZING episode, but now we have to wait a year to see the fall out of all of this. This also means a year of speculation on the part of the SRM crew. We’ll be doing lots of episodes in the off season including a recap episode soon (possibly live!), going back to do seasons 1 and 2 as well as doing themed episodes such as David’s “spin-off pitch”. So, continue to check back often for new episodes of SRM. If you have any questions for the podcast email SRMPodcast@gmail.com. Please like our SRM Facebook page, follow us @SRMPodcast.

SRM S0409: The Watchers On The Wall Jun 09, 2014

We were worried that we wouldn’t have much to talk about with this episode since it was basically all the battle… but somehow we still managed to talk for an hour and a half. Traditionally, the 9th episode of Game of Thrones is the big one. The one when events happen that really shake up the story lines with the 10th episode being the aftermath of the big event and setting up the next season. This episode didn’t quite have that effect for me. So hopefully that means that the 10th episode will be even more of big time event season finale. Panel this episode included Mike, David, Frank, Rob, Whitney and features the return of Corin (minus the tub references) and special guest from Minneapolis in town for DuoFest, Dan Jaquette. Good times.

SRM S04E08: The Mountain and The Viper Jun 02, 2014

This episode of SRM covers Season 4 Episode 8 of Game of Thrones entitled “The Mountain and the Viper”. Other things happened in this episode other than the fight, but damn. That last scene was a mind eraser. I have quickly gone through all the emotions I can. Emotions that I typically reserve for use on human beings and other live creatures. Not fictional characters in a fictional world. Maybe it’s just the gruesome nature of the act, but I feel more with this than I think I did with the Red Wedding. I mean- he had it! It was his! All he had to do was just reach out and take it. At this point I’m gonna make my stone-cold lock of the century of the week, which I wish I’d done on the podcast. So so if you haven’t seen the episode stop reading, because I’m ’bout to get specific. The Mountain will get his… at some point. And if I had to guess that “point” is what already got him. I’m surprised we didn’t mention it specifically on the podcast that I remember, but I think it can be assumed based on a quick re-ewatch of that scene that the spear tip was poisoned. And his name is the Viper. A poisonous snake. So… if the Mountain dies also as a result of his wounds… what then happens to Tyrion? Maybe the same thing, but in any case I’d predict the Mountain to be dead by the end of this season.

SRM: Game of Thrones Season 4- The Road So Far May 26, 2014

There was no new episode, but that didn’t stop us from talking for nearly 2 hours about everything that’s happened so far. In this episode, which is stacked with mostly people who only watch the show and have not read the books, we recap where we left most story lines and how we think they might play out. Some predictions are more general, some are super specific. Some might happen this season, some might be more big picture ideas. All of them could be completely wrong. That’s the fun of this show though. In a world where no one is safe and the line between good and evil is blurred beyond recognition- anything can happen.

Please take a moment to check out PhillyImprovTheater.com for all of our upcoming shows and classes. Start looking at the DuoFest schedule and planning out your festival shows.

SRM S04E07: Mockingbird May 19, 2014

This episode of SRM covers Season 4 Episode 7 entitled “Mockingbird”. We should start talking about the titles of the episodes, because the titles- understandably so- tip what the main goings on in the show could be. In this one Mockingbird is referring to the sigil of Petyr Baelish and as we saw… yeah, big goings on. Also, this episode, although very good, was more of a bridge to bigger things from what I can tell. Big fights, possible invasions, worlds colliding… we have a big 3 episodes left. And as we saw, I am not that big of a fool. My predictions have been pretty spot on even if they are built on sand at the time. This was a really fun chat. Rambled on, but it’s late and I don’t want to edit much of it. Enjoy!

Lastly, a quick SRM extra if you will… Anyone who listens to this podcast knows that I do what I can to hold it down and do about as good a job as some 80’s jobber trying to hold down Andre the Giant. The below is a quick clip that captures that constant struggle perfectly. The media controls right below the sound clip bar will play the podcast separately.

SRM S04E06: The Laws of Gods & Men May 12, 2014

This episode of Stark Raven Mad: A Game of Thrones Podcast covers Game of Thrones Season 4, episode 6 entitled “The Laws of Gods and Men”. Lots going on in this episode and we did our best without the GoT knowledge anchor, Andrew, there to fill in the blanks and/or yell at us. I think we put together a pretty fun and insightful episode. For the first time in a while is a tv viewer only heavy episode so there was more speculation than outright facts, but who needs facts when you get make wild guesses after forgetting big details?

SRM S04E05: First of His Name May 05, 2014

“First of His Name”. As the title of this week’s episode would suggest in this episode a new king is crowned and for once it looks like everything is gonna be aaaaalright in Westeros. Doubtful. This was a pret-ty big episode in terms of information that came out. Looks like Little Finger might actually be “the most dangerous man in Westeros” as Varis calls him way back. This was a fun chat and the last with Andrew before he moves to LA since he’ll be missing next week because he loves his family. Andrew’s been a huge part of why this podcast continues to be a thing, so I do hope to have him on in some capacity via skype or some other technology in future episodes. Thanks to all of this week’s panel as well.

This particular week featured many performers in “Study Hall” a show I direct at Philly Improv Theater. Check it out Saturday, May 24th at 7:30pm. Tickets available soon!

In Study Hall, Drexel University’s Professor Michael Yudell and some of Philly’s best improvisers team-up to create a full hour of spontaneous comedy inspired by brutally honest science. Professor Yudell will exploit every ounce of his tenure to lecture on a wide variety of topics and the “students” will warp each lecture into outrageous scenes on the spot! Don’t be late to Study Hall! (Photo by Tom Lovelund)

SRM S04E04: Oathkeeper Apr 28, 2014

In this episode of SRM we break down Game of Thrones Season 4 episode 4 “Oathkeeper”. We learn with a very heavy hand exactly who else was involved in the murder of you know who. If you’re a listener of the podcast you’ll now that I’m quite satisfied. I can’t say I called it first or anything, but she was my big contender. We only hit a few story lines this episode, but spent a good amount of time on each. Joining us this week were two people new to the being on the show, but long time listeners, Dan and Amy who got a first hand taste of the meaningless arguments that take place on this show.

SRM: Second Thoughts on The Purple Wedding Apr 18, 2014

For this SRM Extra I rounded up several people who only watch the TV show and know nothing about what happens in the books. We take a closer look at the Purple Wedding. In particular we look at some of the prime suspects (as well as some sub-prime suspects) and break down their possible motive for doing the deed. Who did it? Why? Did he/she act alone? How? Playing both sides in each case is our resident GoT expert, Andrew Stanton. We look at several people, but the thing about this show is… it could be someone we don’t even mention. As always, please stop by SRM on iTunes and rate/review.

This episode of Stark Raven Mad: A Game of Thrones Podcast covers Season 4, episode 2: “The Lion and the Rose”. Pretty big episode for only the 2nd episode in the season!

SRM S04E01: Two Swords Apr 07, 2014

Season 4 has finally arrived! After several episodes going over old footage we finally have some new things to argue about. This episode was different for us in that we had a “live audience” that took part in the podcast from time to time with healthy dose of information and bits. I tried to keep it as neat as I could, but it got messy at times. It was a real fun recap /discussion of this week’s premiere, which set a up a lot of things. Nothing ever seems to slow down in this show. As usual Andrew does a great job of filling in some back story. Don’t forget to subscribe, rate and review on iTunes!

SRM Live at 2014 Philly Podcast Festival! Mar 14, 2014

And we’re back! Sort of. This special episode of Stark Raven Mad was recorded back in August of 2013 as part of the first ever Philly Podcast Festival. We had real microphones and real people listening to us for some reason. I thought I had already posted it, but apparently not. Consider this a “lost” episode. Maybe it should have stayed that way. We will officially be back this Spring with new episodes including a look ahead at season 4 soon as well as weekly recaps of the show starting April 6th. For now, enjoy this live episode of SRM!

Joining the podcast as a sponsor going into this next season will be the Philly Improv Theater! PHIT is a comedy theater in Philly where each of us performs. In January we opened up Philly’s first full-time theater for alternative comedy in downtown Philadelphia. If you’re looking for shows we have them 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. If you’re looking to get involved in comedy we have classes in improv, sketch, standup and more! Our spring session starts the week of 3/16 and there is still some limited availability in improv and sketch 101 classes. Email classes@phillyimprovtheater.com for more information or visit PhillyImprovTheater.com. Support live comedy!

SRM: Game of Thrones Season 3 Wrap-Up Jul 01, 2013

In this episode we revisit the finale and some of the season three stories overall. We are rejoined by Kait & Andrew who were on holiday in England during the finale. So now they get to weight in on things. We are also joined by our friend Dan who was visiting Philly. Sot there’s a bunch of us. Throw in lots of drinks and the podcast gets a little messy at times. Little talking over each other, lots of bits and tangents… You’ve been warned. If you can get passed that you might find that there’s actually some good, passionate debate contained in the drunken ramblings of the SRM crew.

SRM Extra: Talking Game of Thrones with 30 Rock’s Scott Adsit Jun 12, 2013

Scott Adsit (Mr. Show, Moral Orel, 30 Rock and lots more) was in Philly this week for Philly Improv Theater’s DuoFest and he was kind enough to give me some time to chat. What you’re going to hear is part of a larger conversation about Second City, 30 Rock and comedy in general. The full chat will be available on my other podcast “Gettin’ Close with Mike Marbach” in a couple weeks. We talked the night before the podcast and he said he was a GoT fan so I let him know we’d probably have to talk about the show. It’s a quick conversation covering a few different topics that tend to get debated on SRM. I just thought it was something fun to include for y’all. Enjoy!

SRM S03E10: Mhysa Jun 10, 2013

And there it is. The third season of one of the greatest shows ever comes to a somewhat anticlimactic close. We discuss our thoughts on the lack of “big stuff” in this season finale while breaking down the episode. We talk about the overall quality of the third season, can’t help but discuss our lack of interest in Theon, and much more. Joining me, Corin and Kevin this week is Mallory and David! All book readers. I (mike) am the only one this week in the dark. Though the season of the show is now over, we are going to continue to do episodes. There will be an SRM extra episode up on Wednesday in which I chat with 30 Rock’s Scott Adsit about Game of Thrones for a bit. We will also be going through seasons 1 and 2 since we started this with season 3. So subscribe! That’s the best way to go about grabbing these as they drop.

SRM Second Thoughts on The Rains of Castamere Jun 06, 2013

In this special mid-week episode we discuss more about the “Red Wedding” in the 9th episode, “Rains of Castamere”. I’ve watched the episode twice through now and the Red Wedding scene itself several times. Little tip for you don’t do that. It hurts every time, but in doing so I’ve caught different things I didn’t notice before or had thoughts that we didn’t talk about on Sunday, plus I can’t get the damn “Rains of Castamere” out of my head. So, I asked Kevin, who was missing from the podcast on Sunday, to come by and chat about the massacre and it’s possible aftermath.

The guitar cover of Rains of Castamere was found on youtube. It is by Ernesto Schnack and you can find the full version here.

SRM S03E09: The Rains of Castamere Jun 03, 2013

In this episode we discuss the adventures of Sam & Gilly for majority of the time. No. We don’t. We talk about what you’d think we talk about. I (Mike) am in pain. My heart has been ripped out and trampled on by a clever man that appears to be some sort of general in an army of train conductors. George R.R. Martin, I’m talking about you. You sadistic son of a bitch. This was an amazing episode to say the least. For many reasons, but damn. Damn, y’all. This shit hurts. This episode of the podcast is less “podcast” and more recorded “support group”. Let us help you through this troubling time.

Opening the podcast is a violin version of the theme song performed by Taylor Davis. I found it on youtube and you can watch it here.

SRM Second Thoughts on Season 3 So Far May 27, 2013

No GoT episode this week, but that didn’t stop us from talking for an hour now did it? This was an off week so HBO could show their Liberace movie with Matt Damon and Mr. Zeta-Jones. Since we didn’t have an episode to break down this week was more of a free form discussion. We revisit our constant battle over the pity factor of both Sansa and Theon, we do some FMK rounds and more. Be sure to visit our sponsors listed below, like us on facebook and please rate/review on iTunes! It helps people find the podcast, which is doing pretty great right now. So, thank you so much!

SRM S03E08: Second Sons May 20, 2013

In the much better sounding 8th episode of Stark Raven Mad we discuss a bit more of the moral complexity of the Hound and the sympathy we have (or don’t have) for Sansa. We talk about new character, Daario Naharis, and him trying to be all Khol with Daenerys and how Ser Jorah, Lord of House Friendzone, must be devastated by this dude. We talk about more reasons to hate Joffrey, love Cersei, introduce several fake sponsors for the podcast and of course break down the rest of what was a great episode of the show. Taking us out this week is “Rains of Castamere” off the official GoT Soundtrack. There is no GoT episode next week, but we’ll probably still put together a podcast, so look for that.

SRM S03E07: The Bear and the Maiden Fair May 13, 2013

Lots of laughs, information and debate in this, the 7th episode of Stark Raven Mad. In addition to going through the episode in depth, Kevin and Andrew battle over whether the Hound is a good guy or a bad guy, we discuss the “crazy gene” passed down through the Targaryen family and much more. Also includes a version of “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” rewritten and performed by Jess entitled “You’ve Got a Friend in Bri” about the growing relationship between Brienne and Jaime. At some point I’ll let out my version which is done with a terrible Randy Newman impression.

SRM S03E6: The Climb May 07, 2013

SRM S03E05: Kissed By Fire Apr 29, 2013

In this 5th episode we have the same crew as last week (Mike Marbach, Andrew Stanton, Corin Wells, Jessica Ross, Kevin Pettit and Kaitlin Thompson). We now have 200% more sponsors! The first is the creators of the game “Zombie Exodus“. A game that you can download via itunes or android stores. Kevin talks more about how awesome it is at the top of the show. The other sponsor is Audible.com. You hear me and Corin talk about the audibooks a lot (itab), so it makes perfect sense audible would jump in. As one of our listeners you get a two free audiobook downloads if you go through audibletrial.com/starkravenmad. If you don’t like it for any reason you can cancel. For every trial that signs up through that link the audible kicks a little money our way. So help a brother out.

This episode was a lot of fun to do. In addition to the normal joking throughout the discussion, we also recorded a couple “commercials”. One at the top and one at the end. I’m also pretty sure this episode is spoiler free. Please take a moment to rate us on iTunes and if you write a nice review we’ll say nice things about you during the show. And head over to facebook and like the Stark Raven Mad page. You’ll get all sorts of fun GoT links to check out. Enjoy!

srmitunesphoto — **SRM S03E04: And Now His Watch Is Ended** Apr 22, 2013
**“And Now His Watch Is Ended”**. In this fourth episode of Stark Raven Mad, Mike is joined by Andrew Stanton, Corin Wells, Jessica Ross, Kevin Pettit and newcomer to the podcast, Kaitlin Thompson. In addition to combing through the episode’s story lines we open with eulogies for two major losses in the show these last two weeks, debate the pity factor of both Sansa and Theon, discuss the origins of Little Finger’s evil, Kevin farts (audibly) and much more. We end with an epic round of “Marry, Fuck, Kill” Westeros style. And for the record, I didn’t think it was an *actual* lobster claw. The handle looked look a lobster claw. Damn it. Like this page. Be a fan on facebook. Rate/review us on iTunes. If you do we’ll thank you on the next podcast. Double points if you’re from Brazil. Thanks for listening!

SRM S03E02: Dark Wings, Dark Words Apr 08, 2013

In the second installment of my Game of Thrones Podcast, “Stark Raven Mad” we discuss this week’s episode, “Walk of Punishment“. This week Andrew Stanton returns to school me on all things GOT and we are joined by the Corin Wells who was mentioned in the first episode. This show has a bit more of a discussion aspect to it as both of them are well versed in the series as well as the books. So they talk about a bunch of different things as we go through this episode. Again, it’s great if you haven’t read the books because you’ll get some context to things going on that is not covered that doesn’t or at least likely wouldn’t spoil anything. If you have any questions or theories you’d like the more knowledgeable people on the show to discuss, email them to michaelmarbach@gmail.com or comment below here.

SRM S03E01: Valar Dohaeris Apr 01, 2013

The first episode of Stark Raven Mad, the latest in what is surely many Game of Thrones recap podcasts, is now available for your listening pleasure. If you haven’t read the books this episode will be especially enlightening. I’m joined by Philly comedian and local Game of Thrones authority (my words), Andrew Stanton. We would have been joined by a couple more people but Jesus had to go and rise from the dead giving people the need to celebrate with their families and whatnot. This episode really highlights how little I know about this show compared to how much I actually like it. It’s kind of sad really, ha. Next week we’ll be joined by a couple people that also know a good deal about all things Westeros so it will be more of a discussion over tutoring session. You’ll have to download or stream it as it’s not yet available on iTunes. Enjoy it and share it!
