Rhaenyra's proposal to betroth Jaecerys and Helaena was promising, but politically loaded - could it have avoided war? Why didn't it happen? What what it have been like? Could they even have been a new Jaehaerys and Alysanne?

King Viserys kicked the speculation about an Oldtown-based Hightower-Maester conspiracy into overdrive this week, so I thought I'd interview him - and one other mystery guest - to try to dig deeper! Plus new Vhagar memes!

That's right, the big one we've been waiting for, Alys RIvers! We've also learned who will play the mysterious Alyn of Hull, Ser Simon Strong (Larys Clubfoot's great-uncle), and Ser Gwayne Hightower (Alicent's younger brother). Spoiler-free analysis & character previews followed by a bit of Fire & Blood spoiler commentary!

HBO has ordered season 1 of Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and though it's still a couple years away, this video will give you a comprehensive look at what this show could bring us - the characters, the events, the mysteries, the tragedies, and the romances. I'll discuss the 3 published Dunk and Egg novellas AS WELL AS everything we know about their lives after the novellas. Some good memes and Bloodraven jokes.

Episode 4 of House of the Dragon was the best yet - and the hottest. My ep4 review will dive into the ideas behind Daemon's "big dragon philosophy" and how Rhaenyra experiments with putting that into play.

Daemon and Rhaenyra went on largely parallel journeys this week, overcoming some of their inner devils as they navigated a minefield of signs and portents. Viserys made a mess of his rituals and omens, did he bring a curse down upon House Targaryen?

Episode 2 was all about the game of thrones - the power game, in other words. Basically everyone was rising and falling, moving and shaking, so here's the breakdown and who's coming out ahead and how each character is developing their power... and why Rhaenyra was the most heroic character of the week! Also featuring Alicent, Corlys, Viserys, Daemon, and Ser Criston

The conversations between Valyrians stole the show in week 2, and the symbolism was shining bright! Full breakdown of the intro sequence as well! And yes this is a tad late, I'm updating the feed today and will try to get on top of it. I'm un the process of overhauling the feed to get more up here regularly, and don't forget that I do a live postgame show every week following the airing of House of the Dragon!

I may decide to make a separate House of the Dragon feed but for now, here's the 3 hours of therapy, fun, and analysis that I did with Grey Waste Tim and Girl Nettles after the first episode!

So... which team do we root for? Which lords, knights, queens, princesses, princes, or kings? Most importantly... which dragonlord? Can any of them live up to the standard Daenerys set?
