Recorded live Dec 22nd, 2019. The first of 4 podcasts designed to set the record straight concerning the true character of Daenerys Targaryen. This first podcast will discuss all her key character-building and character-revealing moments from A Game of Thrones, with subsequent pods to cover the other books of A Song of Ice and Fire that she is in. If you were unhappy with her ending on the HBO show, take heart. There is reason to believe she is not headed for the same fate in the books. One note...

Recorded live Sunday Nov 10th, this live discussion follows up on the topics in King Bran: The God-on-Earth and opens new Ho-doors of inquiry into the nature of Bran's kingship and the overall endgame of A Song of Ice and Fire. What will happen when Bran and Dany's plots converge in the books? What role will the maesters play in all this? We even had a fun deviation into Lady Stoneheart's cave to speculate on Jaime and Brienne's fate. Thanks to everyone that came out!

Why should Bran Stark be King of Westeros? It's going to make more sense in the books, my friends, because Bran's greenseer magic will be much more important in the books - not only to defeat the others, but also use the knowledge of the weirwood to pull a "Bran-the-REbuilder" act for a Westeros in dire need. Above all, Bran should be king because he is the Prometheus of this story - the one who brings the fire of the gods to mankind, and specifically to **aid**mankind. The matching text is on t...

Thanks to everyone who sent in all the amazing questions, they made for a great session. The discussion ranged from King Bran and greenseer stuff to the idea of the weirwoods as abominations and more. There may or may not be karaoke here (you've been warned)

Better late than never, it's a live QnA I did on YouTube to follow up on King Bran 1 on September 1st, 2019. Featured is Wizz-the-Smith's legendary Hollow Hills material, which he kindly allowed us to discuss, and it's a great compliment to the ancient greenseer kings theory. Check out his full essay at the link below, and thanks to everyone who sent in questions! https://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php?/topic/143917-the-caves-are-timeless-hollow-hills-magic-castles-and-greenseers/...

The best way to understand what GRRM wants to do with King Bran is to think about it in mythical terms. Bran's will ascend to the throne as the new Summer King of Westeros, in the Oak (Summer) King / Holly (Winter) King sense. Funny thing - our story began with a summer oak king figure on the throne - King Robert - and even the "First King" of Westeros was a summer oak king figure. Bran will not only help to end the new Long Night, but to make sure the dream of spring gives birth to summer....

Yes, Bran WILL be King in the books, but he will be a greenseer king. Take a walk through everything we know about greenseers, wargs, skinchangers, and what they've done with their power in Westeros to get an idea of what "Bran the God King" really means. Featuring vocal performances by Martin Lewis.

HBO's game of Thrones is over, but the big question remains: how will George and story? The End of Ice and Fire series will rip into this question, comparing the way the show ended various plot lines to the foreshadowing George has laid out in the books. One thing is for sure - a big battle against the others at Winterfell is coming. But what will it look like in the books?

What's this now? A Mythical Astronomy podcast? Yes! Herein lies the audio of the 3 End of IAF videos I did during Season 8, along with with some commentary about both what these predictions and foreshadowings mean for the book ending as well as what the show endings that we saw mean for the possible book ending. This pod will preview some of the topics of my next few podcasts and videos, which all focus on comparing the TV show ending to what the books have foreshadowed. Enjoy.
