In this episode, we talk about one of our absolute favourite characters: Wyman Manderly. We analyse where he and his family stand in the North, how he is perceived and how he uses that, his sense of ethics, why we love him in spite of some... less savoury bits and we finally get to share artwork by the fantastic Hanieh @dr3adlady.bsky.social (We'll share it on social media and on our Patreon, on a public post like all our public episodes) We also talk about some of the cast around him and we have a great time doing all that! Tell your friends and your favourite rat cook (Remy or otherwise) about it, and if you like what you hear, leave us a firework of stars and rave about us in a review on your podcast app of choice. Also, check out our Patreon where you can become a subscriber and get our bonus episodes at the Boots level and up!
