Davos' Fingers - A Song of Ice and Fire Podcast

In episode 117 we spend a majority of the time within Jaime's head as he stands vigil for his father's funeral.  That is right, Tywin is dead and almost 200 pages later, we are still burying him.  And he is stanky.  But bloodrider Kyle is less than stanky, and he brings the analysis on this chapter like non other.  From the brotherly relationship while Jaime is freeing Tyrion, to the ghostly father/son dynamics that show very clearly the power dynamic between Tywin and his children.  This one goes deep on the feelings and emotions, so strap in.

As always, however, the best part of these episodes is when we get to know our guests a little better, so hold on to your hats and enjoy as we all learn a bit more about Dent and how he found the fandom!

In episode 116, Matt and Scad chat with Bloodrider Megan as we return to Sansa, whom we haven’t covered since the first episode of Meet the Khalasar.  And it gets deep here, folks as we are covering Sansa III from ASOS, a chapter in which Sansa’s hopes and dreams are dashed to the ground (again), she is forced to marry a Lannister and suffers trauma at every turn.  Megan dives into the fray with some expert analysis on this chapter as we plumb the depths of the mental warfare the Lannisters are waging.  But as always, the best parts of these episodes is getting to know a bloodrider a bit better.  Learning more about Megan was a delight, and we know you will all enjoy getting to know per as well.

We will be continuing the Meet the Khalasar series very soon, but the next episode won’t be released until early November as we have some conflicts over the coming weeks.  We will see you then!

Bloodrider Kat joins Scad and Matt to discuss Daenerys IX of ADWD.  Queens, Kings, dying palanquin bearers, pit fighting, spicy locusts, ornery pit fighting commentators, and... DROGON.  Yes, the big black dragon makes a return in this episode after disappearing, and we are here for it.  What does it mean for Dany, what does it mean for Meereen?  This is a crucial chapter for Dany as she finally allows her broiling feelings to take control and becomes the dragon once again.  

Also and more importantly, guess what, we get to know bloodrider Kat.  A delightful conversation about her nerdy pursuits and family will be sure to have you giggling, so give it a listen!

Marcus joins the Fingers for this episode covering one of his favorite chapters:  A Ghost in Winterfell.  Together, we dive into the mysteries presented in this chapter where bodies start turning up without explanation and conflicts arise without need for explanation. Mystery is afoot, but so is psychological trauma.  So buckle in for a headier chapter of ASOIAF.  Also, we get to know Marcus, a possibly lesser known soul in the fandom, but his soul is that of a poet.  Listen in to be dazzled like we were!

The Fingers of Davos are joined by Virginie in the island nation of Tonga.  We discuss the ever-persistent Brienne as she risks her life, struggles with trust issues, and learns that she won't blink in the heat of battle.  We also get the charming spinner of yarns Nimble Dick Crabb in this chapter as he guides Brienne and Pod through the melancholy pines of Cracklaw Point.  More importantly we get to enjoy the company of Virginie, one of the more delightful voices in the fandom, as we probe her with questions about her life.  Its fascinating!  So come join us, if you can stand the eerie sounds of the whispers!!!

Someone Always Tells, and I am here to tell you that this episode featuring Bloodrider Bobbie is a delight.  We delve deeply on The Princess in the Tower chapter of A Feast for Crows.  Just how impatient is Arianne?  Just how patient is Doran?  And what is the actual underlying conflict in this chapter that is far more important than the insurrection attempted by Arianne in the deserts of Dorne.  In this chapter, we learn a lot about what really drives Arianne as she approaches madness brought on by her solitude.  We also get to know Bobbie a lot better, and such a joy it was!  Listen to the Doctor dive in with some special insights about about what George gets right medically!

Justin joins Matt and Scad for Episode 108 where we meet the feisty Ser Cortnay Penrose and deal with some of Stannis’ inner demons, maybe even his shadow.  Stannis seeks surrender from a force well-protected behind the massive walls of Storm’s End, but Ser Cortnay isn’t having it.  However, Stannis has Melisandre, a priestess of R’hllor, on his side and is willing to resort to...other methods.  We spend the other half of the episode learning about our friend Justin.  A family focused lover of Batman and Star Wars, Justin fits right in!
