We debute a new episode series, all about, who could have predicted: ASOIAF. Like, actually, the books/ shows and not historical parallels. In this first episode, we talk about the greatest leader possibly ever, and certainly, a speaker for GRRM's pet project (to finish off the work JRR Tolkien left pending, something something genocide of baby orcs and tax policy): Tormund. If you've only watched the show and are confused about the previous statement (or if you have read the books and are confused about the previous statement), worry not: we contextualise everything we analyse. As this is the first episode of this kind for us, please let us know what you think, it's quite precious!
