I go completely off-topic for half an hour, hijacking my own podcast for a cause near and dear to my heart: remembrance day. I very quickly tell the story of my great-grandfather, Charlie, and what his experiences mean to me. Join me, if it suits you, or if not come back for episode 2 (I promise I'll have a guest)

It's a mic check! Why? Cos these aren't decent mics we're using.
The Isle needs to check equipment, location, and whether I can remember how the hell you use Audacity. The way to do that? A sporcle spectacular!
Need a laugh? Come join me as I struggle to remember who's blonde, who's who in the Night's Watch (which I just typed out as Nightwatch if you need a clue how much I've forgotten), and who has a son and who doesn't, plus plenty more.
Come along, have a go, and most importantly let me know how the audio sounds (also how you are, if you fancy)

Sporcle Spectacular- Forging the Three

It is true. After much gib-gab and mucking about, I actually managed to get back in front of a mic and talk some bollocks. And what bollocks it was! There's mumbling, stumbling, and more than a fair share of crumbling (in terms of ASOIAF knowledge, not spines...so far)
In case you forgot: These episodes are based around the Quiz website sporcle and their ASOIAF category. I click on the random button and try to beat the average score FIVE TIMES IN A ROW. Do I do it first time? You look at the episode length and tell me. Do I forget simple, basic, first-day ASOIAF knowledge? You fucking bet I do. Is this a good way of showing myself up and perhaps beginning to make amends for my absence? Well I sure hope so.
It's a bit of fun, a bit of a laugh, and hopefully a way to ease our way back onto the shores. 
Even more importantly, HAVE A GO YOURSELF. And lemme know your amazingly high scores! I'd love to get some dialogue and conversation going, and this is always a good place to start.

Sporcle Spectacular: Forging the Five IV

The time has come. After a big ole gap, and delays to delays, surgeries and royal deaths and road bumps galore...your Isle has returned. And it wants answers.


 


Answers to questions such as:


 


- Where will Daenerys and Drogon fly to next?
 


- What will Daenerys' reaction to the Battle of Fire be?
 


- Will Stannis' burning of Shireen be 'successful'?
 


- What eldritch/otherworldly creatures could feature in the Battle of Ice?
 


- And is Gilly even in Oldtown?


 


Hopefully you all remember how this works much better than I do. Send your questions, send your answers, send your complaints! And if you have any, send your feedback too.

100 Questions on the Winds of Winter Part 5

Trivia and shouting both return to the Isle of Faces in equal measure as we return for some Sporcle Spectacular and the third iteration of an attempt to Forge the Five.
 


 And THIS TIME, I actually got the video to work (supposedly), so if you fancy watching along on my screen to see some cool maps and better focus your consternation at whatever I got wrong, you can head over to our Patreon to do so.
 


This time round there's Game of Thrones actor names, who died where, Joffrey facts, and lots lots more. As always, be sure to send in your own scores and any ideas for a description of my performance.

Sporcle Spectacular! Forging the Five III

Here we are again, back for more sporcle fun to fill in the little break here on the Isle

 This time, there's Storm of Swords characters (where you will definitely be screaming some of the simpler answers I forget), there's Free Cities talk, Night's Watch trivia, which kings died when, and plenty more! 
Take a go yourselves with the links below before you have a listen if you fancy, and definitely let me know your scores if so.
