HOTD Rewatch: The Rogue Prince

This is not a drill. A.Ron convinced Jim to read a fantasy novel. GASP! The guys are getting back into the spirit of House of the Dragon by reading Fire and Blood by George R.R. Martin. Listen and read along as the book is held up to the show. There will be no spoilers for anything that hasn't happened in season one of House of the Dragon.
