If GOT Is The War of The Roses

Hi guys, I thought I would expand on my Queen Sansa (Elizabeth 1st) theory ahead of episode five while enjoying a sunny spring day in central England. Given George RR Martin comments about being inspired by medieval Europe and the War of the Roses then I tend to think of...

Sansa’s Lack of Regret

Hi Guys! I’ve written to you before on the Westworld Podcast but have stayed out of Game of Thrones on purpose so I could just sit back and enjoy your shows. I’m writing today to correct something I just heard on the Small Council for Episode 4 so while this...
