Season 4 of HBO’s Game of Thrones has started, and Wendy has convened the small council – Shannon Clarke, Jesse Jackson, Christine Peruski and Lou Systma – to discuss the return of swords, whores, hands and dragons.

Beware of Spoilers ahead! We cover all the events through Season 4’s episode 4.01 “Two Swords.”

Read on for some interesting links and images.

If you haven’t read every page of George R.R, Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire book series, you’re safe here from book spoilers. We are primarily discussing the story as presented in the TV series. Some of the group has read the books, and may occasionally comment on noteworthy differences, but only about the current events on screen.

Hosted by Wendy Hembrock. Recorded on 4/7/14. Edited by Brent Barrett.
