Who Would Have the Best Game of Thrones Stag Party?

Hi guys, Love the Pod but feel like you’ve missed the most important aspect of the Game of Thrones. Which of the key players would have the best Stag Do (Stag Party for your predominantly American listeners). I’ve broken this down below and can only come to the conclusion that...

White Walker Capture Plan

Hi fellas – picked up on the podcast this season, really great stuff, keep up the good work. I would love it if on Thursday you could do a deeper dive into this plan to capture a white walker and I guess present it to Cersei or some shit? I...

Game of Thrones Writing Has Become Pretty Terrible

Humanizing Lannister Soldiers

First time emailer here. I don’t think the scene with Ed Sheeran was “unnecessary” as you guys claimed. Not only was it a scene to have Arya humanize Lannister soldiers and understand that not everyone who fights for an evil person is evil, but you notice that she’s constantly aware...
