HOUSE OF THE DRAGON season 3 low point: Still good, yet not the highs of other s3 episodes! Criston Cole turned the other cheek into an arrow. Ormund tosses accusations and his lunch!

The Joffrey of Podcasts from Double P Media, Double P Podcasts, Double P HQ enjoys a ridiculous walk to Harrenhal with the dang prisoner Alicent?!?

Did the finale stick the landing? A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS Episode 6 'The Morrow' #akotsk s1e06 Feb 24, 2026

Show notes

Did A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms stick the landing? The final episode of season 1 saw Raymun Fossoway marry Lady Rowan, the apple of his eye (and possibly everyone else's eyes), Egg thinking of cutting thru the tension with his brother Aerion, and Ser Duncan the Tall pull his resume off LinkedIn.
A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS / is based on George R.R. Martin's Westeros side tale of Dunk & Egg, about 89 years before the events of A Song of Ice and Fire saga and HBO's Game of Thrones --- and 97 years before House of the Dragon
