Time to (deep) dive back into comic book cinematic universe territory! We activate our kimoyo beads and say (or not say, depends!)

We've read your ravens and scrolls and thus convened a council of elves and dragon-riders, with guests Gino Quillamor (of Only Fun with Chico and Gino) and Endslate friend Carlo Casas, to talk about (or violently react to) the two big-budget flagship prequels of Prime and HBO: The Rings of Power and House of the Dragon. Whosever side you were on - whether you loved Tolkien's pristine universe or preferred GRRM's violence and court intrigue - one thing's for sure, NERDS RULE!
