Greetings, and welcome to House of R, a Ringerverse podcast on the Ringer Podcast Network. I'm Mallory Rubin. Joining me today, she's not too tall for puppets or this podcast.
It's Joanna Robinson. Oh, wow. Dunk doesn't have the words, but you definitely do. You have all the words, and I'm really excited to hear them.
So many words coming today from both of us. It is time for the deep dive, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep dive into A Night of the Seven Kingdoms, episode two, right after this.
Okay, Jill, let's refresh everybody on how we do this.
How do we cover A Night of the Seven Kingdoms? Wow, I'm so glad you asked. First of all, immediately after the episode ends, up on a video platform of your choosing, Talk the Thrones. That's right. Chris Ryan, Molly Rubin, Joanna Robinson. Instant reactions to the episode immediately after. Delightful. Right now we're doing the deep dive. That comes a couple days later. That's right. You can email us, hobbitsanddragons at gmail.com if you have thoughts on the episode that you would like us to address.
What themes are explored in Dunk's memories of Ser Arlen?
The inbox is always open. We will be digging into text and lore and all of that, but not spoilers. That's right. until the very end of the episode.
And you will have a warning right on the brink of the spoiler section. You can't miss it. Carlos is going to add in sound effects that scare the shit out of you.
We did get an email from someone who said they got very scared by the spoiler warning last week.
I think we are airing out of an abundance of caution that nobody can say, I did not know what section of the podcast I had made my way to. Spoilers will all be at the end. That'll be a brief little section. We're just going to spend a few minutes every week looking ahead. book passages. I mean, we love to read them, but spoiler safe until the very end. Right.

A little later than usual this year. Thank you to everybody for the patience. But we're drafting hype squads with Sean.
It's definitely happening.
We've already recorded it. So we can finally say with confidence that it will be airing. Perhaps the only time we can say with confidence lately that things will be airing is after we have recorded them. So that's coming. And of course, on the Night of the Seven Kingdoms front, the Midnight Boys. Pew, pew. Pew, pew.
How does Egg's pep talk influence Dunk's mindset?
Also covering this wonderful show on Mondays. Chris and Andy are checking in on Mondays. Riley McAtee is writing wonderful pieces on TheRinger.com. What a great website. The Ringer is hyped about a night of the Seven Kingdoms.
What significance do the Targaryens' arrival hold in the story?
It is a wonderful television program that we are having a blast watching and are very excited to talk about again today. Before we get to it. Yeah.
Okay, so we want to talk a little bit about some things that are going on in the world really quickly. I know that some people listen to this podcast to escape that, and that is an absolutely fine way to listen to this podcast. So if you want to skip ahead... go for it. This sort of speaks to that.
How does Dunk's interaction with the Kingsguard reveal his character?
We got an email from our listener, Elsie in Minnesota, living in Minnesota, who wrote, how you both speak about the hero's journey and the big stakes, not just character death and paying attention to things, how we care. And every fucking thing a hobbit ever said is really helping me get through this dark time and to find the courage and the strength to protest and donate and be active in my community. So that's something that Elsie said that like, our podcast was sort of a good escape for her. We got an email from our listener, Paul, as well. And I can't really get into the specifics of what Paul wrote because it was about some things that we would only talk about in the spoiler section of this podcast.
