Spoilers, profanity, Jaime x Brienne. Theon struggles with his captivity, phantom "limb" syndrome, and a lot of TMI. What's Barbrey Dustin really up to? Not only does everyone peak in high school in Westeros, but they've had the same top 40 for the past hundred years. Meanwhile we have further evidence that GRRM just really has no understanding about female anatomy. A Song of Ice and Fire. A Dance

Gather round as the legendary Melrosing gives us all the gritty details from the first showing of ‘The Mad King’ by the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford-upon-Avon. George R. R. Martin was involved, so there are canon ASoIaF arguments brewing. Just remember: not believing R+L=J is a dealbreaker, ladies. We talk through the new reveals about Lyanna Stark,
645: Is The Winds of Winter coming?
Spoilers, profanity, Jaime x Brienne. ‘The Mad King’ has been delayed for a week, so how is an A Song of Ice and Fire podcast to fill an empty schedule slot? You guessed it—time to check in on George R. R. Martin and the state of The Winds of Winter in the year of our Lord 2026. The news isn’t good—or is it? Opinions are split.

642: ADwD The Prince of Winterfell
Spoilers, profanity, Jaime x Brienne. We sense a little bit of Theon coming out of the darkness while poor Jeyne gets pushed into it.

634: ADwD Daenerys V
Spoilers, profanity, Jaime x Brienne. Dany’s stuck in Meereen and so are we, and no one is happy about it. Guile calls these chapters Dany’s office hours, and it’s hard to disagree. Does anyone blame a fifteen year old for picking the least bad of fifty bad options? And look, GRRM, we agree that the Meereenese knot is indeed a quagmire, but if it was caused by a pacing problem couldn’t we have sid
633: I dreamed of you?
Spoilers, profanity, Jaime x Brienne. In this Patreon exclusive, we deep dive on a listener prompt about the use of the phrase "I dreamed of you" in GRRM's expanded universe. Two of the characters who use this dream are Targaryens (or Targ adjacent) and two are Lannisters. Does it mean anything? Is the phrase for the dreamer or the dreamed of? Are two out of three instances romantic? Where does Ty
