9/5/2024
Lord Commander A.Ron and King Jimhaerys consult the ancient tome of Fire & Blood by GRRM. Was the confrontation between Aemond and Aegon part of the plan, or a surprise opportunity?

HOTD vs. Fire & Blood - S02E03 - The Burning Mill
8/29/2024
How difficult was it to claim Harrenhal in the book? And much Alys Rivers was there? And it's really only that many paragraphs? I guess it's a good thing we also have your feedback and some bonus readings on the dragon pit!

HOTD vs. Fire & Blood - S02E02 - Rhaenyra the Cruel
8/22/2024
Lets revisit Arryk Cargyll's mission, recontextualize Aegon's hissy fit and Otto's scheming, and maybe splash in a little bit of Daemon that is shuffled around in the show as we cover the sections of Fire & Blood that are relevant to "Rhaenyra the Cruel." This week's reading: pg.428 p.2 through pg.430 p.3 and pg.431 p.2 through pg.432 Next week's reading: pg. 427 through pg.428 p.1 (no, that's not a mistake. It's a single page! We'll also have a history lesson on the dragon pit.)

Is this the best Otto episode? Why is Aegon so watchable? Aemond's rent-a-mommy scene is fantastic. Steve and Anthony are both feeling a bit greener than usual. That said, the promise of Alyn, Addam, and Hugh is exhilarating.
