You are by far the best podcast out there.   I&#8217;m disappointed by the Night King being dead, or appearing to be dead.  The very first scene of the first episode starts out with the dead and their cryptic message to us.   It has been part of the show throughout as we navigated through the lives of the main characters.   I was hoping we would understand the purpose of the Night King and why he kept signaling us.   Would we see a redemption arc for the Night King similar to the other characters where he was really trying to escape being the Night King and return to being human?  He did not choose to become the Night King.  It was literally thrust upon him.   His purpose could not have been just to erase the memory of man and live happily ever after as the Night King.  I&#8217;m hoping we are not done with the Night King storyline yet but I&#8217;m afraid the showrunners may have taken the easy way out.    Thanks again for all the work that goes into making your podcasts the best.
