  • The dance has begun, and it's time for Mal and Jo to dive deep into the explosive fourth episode of ‘House of the Dragon.' They begin with their opening snapshot (06:12) to discuss their overall impressions before going scene by scene into the intriguing, witchy, and dragon-battling wonder (09:38). Later they are joined by Aemond "One Eye" himself, Ewan Mitchell, to discuss his role in this episode and what it took for him to inhabit his scheming character (03:22:15). All before diving into their book spoiler section to take a look ahead at what the next episode might bring (03:41:17).
    Hosts: Mallory Rubin and Joanna Robinson
    Guest: Ewan Mitchell
    Producers: Steve Ahlman and John Richter
    Additional Production: Arjuna Ramgopal

    I’ve always hated how everyone I watch fantasy shows with or play fantasy video games with never shares my love of deep diving into everything about the show or game and spending an ungodly amount of time thinking about it. I love lore for things like thrones and middle earth and the elder scrolls but I’ve never had anyone to discuss it with. So thank you guys for doing these because it makes me feel like I’m just sitting at the table discussing all the things I love, with you.

    I think one of the differences is that all of Catelynn’s children were alive. Rhanys’ children have passed so maybe she was more open to acknowledging Alyn now vs. when her children and heirs were alive.

    • @GregPivo87
      @GregPivo87 27 дней назад +2

      In fact Catelyn would have grown up learning about the history of the decades of war, treachery & death that came from bastards pressing their claims against trueborn heirs. Such events haven’t happened yet in Rhaenys’s time.

    • @Flexorcist3030
      @Flexorcist3030 27 дней назад

      Rhany's was also a hard core Targ. If you notice her allegiance, its always with the true Valyrians. So i would think that she is more desensitized to adultery and bastards vs Catelyn who is a cuddled little girl waiting for her father by the window then married an honorable Northerner.

    I think the smart and very defensively course of action for Rhaenys would’ve been to flee to Dragonstone after her first dance with Aemond and Vhagar.
    By then she had fulfilled her duty to defend Rook’s Rest, their allies. The only reason why she would stay and fight would’ve been to gamble and see if she could end the war by taking down Team Green’s biggest advantage.

    Big disagree with Ned telling Cat. Cats enmity towards Jon is part of the cover. Like when Melisandre is telling mance the bones are important for the glamor, ppl expect to see the bones. Ppl expect Cat to hate Jon so Ned has to let it happen. The moment he tells anyone he first breaks his promise to Lyanna to keep him safe. And he endangers the person he his telling this secret to. All around bad idea to tell anyone let alone Cat’ imo. love the podcast

    Gotta be honest I don’t understand y’all’s issue with the “few weeks” comment.
    I don’t think the word few needs to be taken so seriously and to me it seems as though only 4-6 weeks have passed
    Green council was 1st day after death
    Black queen was like the next 2 days
    Word of Luke’s death probably took a day to get back
    Jace’s trip north + time for raven to get there and Jace to get back probably 2 weeks
    Couple days pass in the start of this season with blood and cheese and then a couple more days with the aftermath
    2-3 more weeks for Cole’s campaign, rhaena departure and daemon to harrenhal
    So someone who has gone through tragedy upon tragedy upon weird sex upon sept meeting called a month+ “a few weeks”
    Big deal
