Episode description

What if we told you that Game of Thrones is more than just epic battles and dragons—it’s a deep dive into trauma, power, and redemption? Join us and our special guest, Professor Tuck from Stuff Negroes Need to Know News Network, as we tackle the grim journey of Sansa Stark. We explore the harrowing experiences she faces with Ramsay Bolton, her relentless quest for justice, and the ultimate moment of retribution that leaves viewers cheering. Reflect on how Sansa's story criticizes and mirrors the harsh realities faced by women in society, and what her choices mean for her character and the broader narrative of the series.

Beyond Sansa, our discussion expands to other pivotal characters and plot twists. Remember Brienne of Tarth's noble entry into the Kingsguard and the tragic end of Tommen Baratheon? We shed light on the often-overlooked characters like Loras Tyrell and Myrcella Baratheon, and analyze Daenerys Targaryen’s roller-coaster leadership journey alongside her complicated bond with Jorah Mormont. We also delve into the moral complexities faced by Jon Snow and Stannis Baratheon, revealing the intense emotional layers that make Game of Thrones an unforgettable saga.

To add a hint of humor, we draw quirky parallels between Game of Thrones and other popular series like One Punch Man and Attack on Titan. Picture Tormund Giantsbane's larger-than-life personality and Lady Olenna's unmatched wit, alongside Bran Stark's mysterious path to power. Join us in a spirited conversation about memorable characters and their significant arcs, as we set the stage for an exciting follow-up episode exploring the final seasons and the epic conclusion of Game of Thrones. Don’t miss this insightful and engaging exploration of one of television's most iconic series!

Game of Thrones Seasons 5-6

Speaker 1

all right , game of thrones , season five and six , like I know . I know normally we did like one by one , but that's on me , because I straight up forgot that this series had eight seasons .

For some reason I thought it was had six , like maybe it's because , like okay , by the time the sixth season dropped and I watched all that shit , I was like , okay , I kind of petered out of the whole franchise and I had to revisit it . Um , once I heard about how bad season eight was and I , oh shit , here we go .

But , um , now we are combining the remainder of the season to where we're doing seasons five and six today and then we're gonna do season Wait , yeah , yeah , season 5 and 6 today and 7 and 8 At another time . Yeah , like , I'm like , oh , okay , let me see I'm skipping the beat , and this time I just got Professor Tuck coming from the studio .

How you doing today , man .

Speaker 2

Oh , my sweet summer children . Thank you for having me . Jb , I'm reporting live from Stuff Negroes Need to Know News Network and we're going to have a lot to talk about today .

Speaker 1

So let's go ahead and get into it . Season five Okay , uh , season five uh , okay . It was kind of a mixed bag for me because you get some shit like for starters .

Let me just start off with the fact that with this dude that I don't like , ramsay bolton , like this dude can't even get married to a chick without consummating the marriage , without being creepy , rapist type dude , and I'm like bro really . And the worst part is he may re-watch all of that shit and I'm like nah see , like I watched that once .

I let it slide once because I didn't see it coming . But ever since then I'm like uh-uh , I don't need that mental scar , I don't need that trauma . So I'm like uh , uh , I don't need that Mental scar , I don't need that trauma .

So I'm like , as soon as I get close To that scene , like skip , because I don't need , I know what happens in this scene , I don't need to see that twice .

Speaker 2

That's a fact Can't stand him .

Speaker 1

Hell yeah , but hey , he got what's coming to him in season 6 , and that's another thing . We're not going episodic , like pretty much like what we did with season four , like fuck all that with our episodic bullshit , let's talk about what we want to talk about .

Okay , uh , how you feeling about um that moment , like where it's like ramsey gets married to sansa sansa realize how abusive ramsey is . Um sansa's trying to get reek's help to kind of get away from him and all the other shit and take back Winterfell and whatnot .

And eventually they link up with Jon Snow and I like the way how Jon was beating the shit out of Ramsey like Jon Walker I won't say Steve Roberts is Captain America , but it was more like John Walker is Captain America Beat him with that fucking shield and shit .

And then next thing , you know , they got him strapped in a fucking chair , fed him that meat and then had the dogs eat him alive and Sanza was like hold on , I'm going to sit back and watch this for a minute .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I think it was more like Stone Cold , steve Austin .

Speaker 1

You know what I mean .

Speaker 2

They had to put them paws on him and give me a what and a hell . Yeah , I was so satisfied . When I tell you I was so Satisfied , almost like the purple wedding , but it was a little bit better Because I couldn't stand Ramsey God man For real , like the purple wedding , but it was a little bit better because I couldn't stand Ramsey God man For real .

Speaker 1

He was one of those dudes that I really I can't stand Sansa either , though , so you know . Yeah , but that's the thing . Like . This is the only moment where I'm like . You know what , sansa ? You earned my respect in this moment . Stay with it .

Speaker 2

I don't know about respect . I don't know about respect . I don't know about respect .

Speaker 1

I mean no , no , I'll give her some cool points for that , but yeah , yeah , just a couple of them , but the all the other seasons .

Speaker 2

She was so irritating , yeah it's like .

Speaker 1

It's almost like she didn't really have an arc other than let me be a damsel in distress disney princess version of whatever we got going on in Game of Thrones .

Speaker 2

She literally got one of the only characters that got everything they always wanted . I just want to be the princess . I want to be married to the king . You got married to the king , so to speak , so to speak , and boom , now you don't want it All . You want to go back to Winterfell . You get back to Winterfell . Now you don't want it All .

You want to go back to Winterfell . You get back to Winterfell . Now you don't want to be there , which you won't Granted . You ain't in the best situations , but you got what you wanted . You got exactly what you asked for .

Speaker 1

I mean , yeah , be careful what you wish for , man .

Sometimes it's just wild how it seems like she always trying to hook up with someone that's in a position of power and she realized how's in a position of power and she realized how men in a position of power , especially in this era , in this world and whatnot is like bro , like these men , can do whatever the fuck they want with their women .

Speaker 2

So I'm like she wanted a high value man , but she couldn't .

Speaker 1

She couldn't do it like it was more like she just assumed everything was gonna be all good , but like man . Look , I'm sorry to say this because I don't honestly believe this .

I don't condone this in any way , but , like in this world , it just seems like women get treated like property by these men , and I don't , I don't like that , but that's just how it is oh for sure , oh for sure , everybody but um yeah , I mean because , you know , strong , independent woman like she , she actually did the whole trope right , though , like she

was uh likable , like um she , she wasn't a merry suit where it like just felt like she was steamrolling through uh having like power and authority , whatnot . She wanted to be king's guard , whatnot , but it was like nah , nah , you're gonna have to earn it because you know you're a woman , you know women can't be king's guard , what the fuck ?

And then it's like she had to really earn the right to be part of the king's guard , like multiple times between like fucking uh cersei and um who else ? Um , she did with daenerys at one point and uh , all those other people . She had to earn the right to um be by their what's his name um , what's the name , brother damn the false king ?

Speaker 2

oh dang , what was his name ? What's the name , brother Dang the false king ? Dang , what was his name ? I don't know , but not Stannis Doggone man , I can't remember his name . See , kokugatsu would know off the top of his head .

Speaker 1

No , I feel like I know who you're talking about , but like give me some context . Give me some more context . I know who you're talking about , but give me some context .

Speaker 2

Give me some more context

Character Development and Plot Reflection

. So the way she first became into the Kingsguard , she won a tournament , right ? So she won a tournament where the brothers were fighting against each other to be king . Yeah , and the brother with the black hair that eventually had the little demon child thing that went to go kill his brother , she was the brother with the long hair . What was his ?

Speaker 1

name .

Speaker 2

Loras .

Speaker 1

Oh yeah , yeah , Loras . Okay , I was like I know what you're talking about , but I'm like I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about . I was like , okay , I remember that , but Loras , so Loras .

Speaker 2

That's when she first became one of the Kingsguard 4 . So she won a tournament and she asked for that and he was like that's cool with me .

Speaker 1

Man . Honestly , aside from him being gay , Loras was so a nothing character to me . Somehow I just mentally blocked this character . That's another thing . It's like some of these characters like mentally get blocked out of my memory . I'm like wait a minute , how come I don't remember this person like um , the daughter of cersei and jamie .

I was like hold on they had a daughter .

Speaker 2

I'm like , oh , that's right yeah she showed up all of a sudden , hyped in the book , but she uh , in the show . They was like just go with the sand , just go with the sand , get out of here , we don't care about you , we'll get you back when it's time for you to die .

Speaker 1

Yeah , and then you know , she kissed that one sand snake and got poisoned and whatnot , and that's the sad thing . She was the only normal child and she was as gone as she all came . She wasn't normal child and she was as gone as she all came . Well , in the show she was appeared to me normally .

You know , those are the closest things , okay , okay , you get , you got me there .

But I'm saying like , personality wise , she was like the closest thing to normal , like uh , yeah , at least it's not like uh , fucking tommy , where it just feels like he's a pastor in his own body between getting bossed around by his wife and getting bossed around by his mama and grandpa . Yep , that's it yeah , puppet .

Speaker 2

That's why he was always depressed his girlfriend was gonna do the same thing oh , oh man .

Speaker 1

But you know what ? It's sad , how the one decision he ever made that was on his own was to end his own life .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I mean not to make fun of that , but I'm like damn when you think about it . Marcella was Jamie's niece and his daughter . That's crazy .

Speaker 1

Yeah , that's how weird it is in West Rose and all these Sunfuse .

Speaker 2

Sunfuse , or is it Nessun ? No , no , no , sunfuse sounds better .

Speaker 1

Sunfuse sound better . It's not .

Speaker 2

That's crazy , nauter .

Speaker 1

Nauter .

Speaker 2

Yeah , what do you think about ? What do you think about Daenerys at the time , Because you know that's my baby mom .

Speaker 1

OK , ok , between season 5 and season 6 , I like how At this point she had this how to train your dragon Arc with the dragons . But at the same Time she's also like Really get into the whole boss Bitch arc to where she's taking over Kingdoms and shit , trying to . She's she has a hard shit trying to .

Uh , she's she has a hard time trying to get some of these people under control . Of course , but over time it's like all right , well , you know , um , shit happens . You know her boy , jorah . Like you remember , he's a baratheon spy . So he was like okay , uh , I'm to bring Tyrion to you as a gift , so are we cool , can I come back now ?

And she was like well , you know , I appreciate what you did here , but you're still a traitor and a spy and I don't trust you . So I'm going to give you the same deal I gave you the last time . You can get the fuck out of here willingly , or I could just have you killed on the spot .

The fuck out of here willingly , or I could just have you killed on the spot . And I don't want to do that . But because I see you as a friend , I feel like I just give you the chance to you know , walk on out of here while you can , before my people gotta do what I

Character Arcs and Moral Dilemmas

gotta do .

Speaker 2

The way people have fallen in love with her . I just know that box was fire Fire .

Speaker 1

Like fucking Daria , her boy toy for those two seasons .

Speaker 2

For sure , everybody wanted her . Everybody was falling in love . She's box's own fleek , I don't know , but Missandei from the island of Naft , oh my .

Speaker 1

Okay , hold on Like yeah , yeah . And then there's also Like the moment when you find out that , okay , because you know she's like a witch and what not she you find out that she kinda like Got that Tsunade thing Going on to her Secret and actually she's like a Decrepit old woman .

But I'm like I guess we don't like to talk about that , but , um , can we talk about how stanis the man is pretty much fell from grace when he thought the move to make was to sacrifice his own daughter , making his wife and shit ? Uh , look at that shit .

And then half his men level , uh , uh , uh , man , I was with you up until now because , nah , you on some crazy shit now . And then the wife hung herself out of grief and eventually like , um , dennis himself got killed . So I'm like , hey yo , we were rocking with you up until you did that shit .

And then , essentially , melisandre and Davos joined team Jon Snow .

Speaker 2

Man . That was the worst part for me . He just burned his daughter a lot . The way she was screaming yeah , I was like man , this ain't it . I was one of the soldiers . I was like man , I'm leaving . Man , I was with you , bro , but now I'm it . I was one of the soldiers . I was like man , I'm leaving .

Man , I was with you , bro , but now I'm not with you . No more , no more , never again .

Speaker 1

Yeah , me and that birth have not gone on .

Speaker 2

And the red woman I know her box was good too .

Speaker 1

That shadow snatch , I'm sorry .

Speaker 2

I'm going to keep it .

Speaker 1

But man , like okay , I think she comes back in like season seven or whatnot . But like at the end , like okay , at some point John and Sanzo like yeah , you know what , your service is no longer needed , so you can get the fuck up . So you can get the fuck up now , you can get the fuck up out of here .

I forgot why , but like they just pretty much banished her for some reason .

Speaker 2

Because she kept fucking up .

Speaker 1

Oh well , yeah , and also she got kind of quiet by the time she joined . Team Snow .

Speaker 2

Yeah , her prophecies kept being stupid . She kept thinking oh no , this is it , this is it for real this time ? No , it's not , you just keep messing up .

Speaker 1

Oh , so she fell off . That's what that is . Yeah , damn , that whole team stand is falling off .

Speaker 2

So really .

Speaker 1

He burned her daughter for no reason , no reason at all . Now he was like oh , it's for the cause . I'm like , hey man , it's one thing to do something for a cause , but this is like straight up delusion now , like that was just Unnecessary . It's like I gotta prove that I'm For the cause by burning my own daughter .

I'm like , um fam , that was nothing to move to make I wouldn't .

Speaker 2

I wouldn't have made that move , I mean , like ain't no other option hell yeah .

Speaker 1

Oh , another thing that kind of fucked up in like season five when , look , john snow thought he was doing the right thing fighting the white walkers and all that , um , get the um valerian steel and whatnot .

He was doing this thing even don't bother , don't have the wildlings um take refuge in , uh , winterfell , because you know , once again he was trying to do the right thing . But um , those folks were like we don't really appreciate you um bringing the enemy in our home and all that shit .

So like we gotta have the ceremonies , we like each was like stab you and it's like bro For the watch , bro Ollie , bro , yeah , ollie .

Speaker 2

Not Ollie bro .

Speaker 1

I was like you were looking at Ollie like not you too , bro , and to Ollie I'm like I'm sorry bro .

Speaker 2

Yeah , that's the first thing I thought of . And to Bruce God man , that done took me back to ninth grade literature . I remember that it unlocked a memory when that happened .

Speaker 1

That's just how hurtful , that . That is where it's like it . Be that one homie that you thought was the most Soul of all . It's like it too , bro .

Speaker 2

I'm like hey , hey , man , I don't feel like this ever , you motherfuckers , you motherfuckers .

Speaker 1

I gave my life to the Washington . That's how you do me . But no , that's okay Because you know he become the White Wolf Lord of the North in season six . So he get his comeback Lord of the North in season 6 . So you get his comeback .

Speaker 2

What else going on , Bro ? I'm dying . I hit the music .

Speaker 1

I'm over here dying Tuck , you got anything you want to add on . Oh me .

Speaker 2

You want Dwight Walkers ? I'm dead . I'm so fucking dead . What was um ? What was um the Kingslayer doing at this time ? I done forgot Jamie Lannister . I forgot .

Speaker 1

But I feel like forgot Jamie Lamastor .

Speaker 2

I forgot , but I feel like he was like Did he try to go get his daughter or something ? Yeah , something like that . I feel like he was taking a backseat for the most part . They told I think Cersei sent him to go get her for some reason .

Speaker 1

Like um Something . She was scared somebody was going to try to get her or use against her right , but um , oh well , you know she died yeah , rest in peace but uh , oh , there was that one part where he was in a fight with somebody but he Used his new hand to Block the sword or what not .

I thought that was kinda cool and I was like , oh shit , that's right . Uh , I don't have a normal hand , so I can literally like catch swords With my hand and it's not gonna hurt me .

Speaker 2

Yeah , that'd be crazy . He should've had a diamond sword .

Speaker 1

I mean a diamond hand .

Speaker 2

A diamond hand or a diamond sword , because , look , you can't break a diamond hand . A diamond hand or a diamond sword ? Because , look , you can't break a diamond .

Speaker 1

Hey man , you know what , if you're going to have a prosthetic hand , you might as well customize that shit . Get like some spikes on some shit on there and be like just beat motherfucking shit On the face in with that shit .

Speaker 2

I'd have been like Cyborg Robbing , using my shit for a whole bunch of stuff .

Speaker 1

But I hope it's not like that one episode you know on teen titans where it's like old buddy rolled up like hey man , like it's cool that you're doing all this shit , but uh , I can um camp you out . Do you know like we can make you full robot ? It's like don't you want to be a full robot ?

Speaker 2

I'm like , uh , I don't know about that no , being a cyborg is my thing , man .

Speaker 1

Yeah , I was like you're getting rid of the one thing that makes me human .

Speaker 2

What's

Character Development and Revelations

that thing ? Genos from One Punch man . Yeah , I gotta go upgrade , bro . I got my ass beat again . Time to go upgrade .

Speaker 1

Be like David Martinez from Cyberpunk Edge , bro . I was like oh man , I'm gonna get upgraded . I was like hey man , you're gonna become one of those cyber cycles . You better be great , you better be careful , man . I was like man .

Speaker 2

I know what I'm doing .

Speaker 1

Good Lord , I'm trying to think you got anything you want to add on on , like any moments that you liked about season . Oh , oh , oh . Let's talk about my boy , tormund , to where , whenever you see he was like you got that . Look on his face like hey , that's all here the big woman , the big woman he was like you know how much ass that is ?

Speaker 2

that's a whole bunch of ass .

Speaker 1

They don't make them like this , where I'm cut from .

Speaker 2

He want to roll up . Hey , you have time or something .

Speaker 1

Man , this dude was shooting .

Speaker 2

Oh , wasn't he , Didn't he used to fuck a giant .

Speaker 1

I mean now he's in the attraction ?

Speaker 2

Yeah , he used to fuck a giant .

Speaker 1

I mean now in the attraction .

Speaker 2

Yeah , he used to fuck a giant . That's what it was . He had fell in love with a giant . I can't remember if it was in the show , but I know it was in the book .

Speaker 1

Most likely the book , because I believe me I was . I want to say they mentioned it .

Speaker 2

They mentioned it maybe as like a story . Yeah , they said you know why they call me something .

Speaker 1

Because he crawled in the bed and fucked his damn Jesus Christ man . I liked the world man he was funny when , what ?

Speaker 2

You know who was funny also , lady Elena .

Speaker 1

Oh , yeah , totally .

Speaker 2

The queen of thorns . She's the pettiest person ever , queen petty . She always had a witty one-liner .

Speaker 1

See , tyrian was the only one with witty one-liners until she came man , I'm still rolling over that one part , um back in like what ? Season three , season four , when um , santa was pouring her heart out to her to where I'm like , uh , joffrey's a monster , he is so abusive and whatnot .

And then she was like , oh well , you know , shit happens when you marry a king . I'm like , hey man , like she did not give a fuck .

Speaker 2

One of my favorite characters is Pod Pod the God . We are not worthy .

Speaker 1

One of the two mysteries about Game of Thrones ? What ?

Speaker 2

the hell did Pod do to those women ? What did he do ? They gave the money back . I ain't never seen no prostitute give the money back .

Speaker 1

I was like , hey , man , the dick was so good I had to give him his money back .

Speaker 2

Then Tyrion , the first one to peep Yang . He was like hey , what did you do ? We did many things , my lord . Like bro , that's not an answer .

Speaker 1

I'm like I don't Look here . You better give me the answer . That don't tell me oh lord , there was something I remember . Now , uh , hold on , uh , we get . We get like a little backstory on him to where brand was pretty much okay , keep in mind that he was out of the picture for pretty much all of season five . But in season six brand comes back .

He's pretty much like receiving training of sorts , kind of like what aria has with , uh , her art . But we'll get to that in just a moment . But uh , let's talk about brand real quick to where brand pretty much was like revisiting the past and whatnot .

And this is the part where I feel like I'm getting erin jaeger vibes to a degree , but not like as bad as erin jaeger , but like that part yeah , I definitely agree , I agree it just feels like oh , so you're sending messages to people by through their memories in the past . So it's like so in the future they'll be like I all right , I got you fam .

So , uh , this is not brand , but it was mirrored um the woman that pretty much had a knife to his throat by Mirra's suggestion . Hodor is supposed to hold the door and you have that legendary moment where you're like aw man , hodor , rest in peace , my dude . So that's why Hodor is the way he is .

He got hijacked and then he was like going to a seizure and shit and he could talk normally too . I was like man .

Speaker 2

Bro , that whole scene had my mind Confused , bro . I was like what the Freak ? That was like what ? I was like what the fuck ? What's going on ? Hold door , hold door . I was like , oh my , that's what he was saying the whole time . That's crazy . He been giving us hints all season . He knows his Season one .

Speaker 1

It's like his whole purpose was for that moment correct .

Speaker 2

But yeah , I was getting the real Aaron Yeager vibes . He controls the past , the present and he sees glimpses of the future , like in order to meet a certain end .

Speaker 1

Like Doctor Strange and Aaron Yeager combined but the crazy part is , I know we're jumping , but by the time all this is over , at least with him he got the throne and shit , and like he's the one on the Iron Throne now , like I'm like , hey man , at least with him he got like somewhat of a happy story . I mean , he can't use it .

Speaker 2

Yeah , he talking about . He knew it the whole time . Like bro , I knew you didn't .

Speaker 1

If anything , it was more like the role was given to you by default . If anything , it would make more sense for Jon Snow to be

Themes of Power, Betrayal, and Redemption

in charge . But that's the whole arc of Jon Snow , where it's like he's been fighting for his freedom the whole time . It's like he was fighting for a cause but in actuality he should have fought for his freedom .

That's what makes john snow more like aaron jaeger in spirit , where , like , he's the freedom fighter in all this but brand's the one that can see through the past , present and future . But uh , let me think , um , that's pretty much all I had on season five , but I'll try to think of , um , anything about season six that uh , I want to talk about .

But uh , took , you had anything you want to add on to all that ?

Speaker 2

um , my favorite part about season five was my boy samuel tarly . He wasn't a virgin , no more .

Speaker 1

Oh yeah , Don't be Carly , like , oh well , you didn't bring that type of woman around here . Hey man , I don't give a fuck how you feel . That's my woman . You leave her alone .

Speaker 2

I'm still upset that the baby is called Little Sam , knowing damn well that's not Sam baby . Yeah , yeah and damn well that's not Sam Baby .

Speaker 1

Yeah , yeah , um .

Speaker 2

Um , what's his name ? Um , dang , uh , jagan Hagar , my boy is Is player , oh , you know what . You know exactly what to do .

Speaker 1

You know , you just remind me . You remind me of what I was about to mention with Arya . So Arya is essentially going on her spy assassin arts where she's going around killing whoever she's being ordered to kill . But she's like , uh-uh , you know what ? I'm here to gain the training to kill the people that I'm mainly trying to kill .

Like I'm not going out trying to kill random people , just I'm mainly trying to kill , like I'm not going out trying to kill random people , just for y'all . And I'm like , oh wait , hold on . Like you can't just leave , like you you know who we are .

And then , uh , between him and this one woman , the waif , and the waif was trying to kill her , and that's the funny thing too is like way he was acting , like she was waiting to kill her , like oh , I can't wait to have the perfect opportunity to take you out and shit . And the actress lady that Arya spared was like you know what ?

I think the lesson learned here is I should make friends , because you know it's hard out here being a spy assassin . So like maybe I need some people that I can trust . But then the wave comes and kills the actress lady and I'm like , whoa fuck .

But uh , ultimately , uh , arya gets the needle back , kills the wave , tells Jock and hey yo , I'm done with y'all . I'm going back to um Westeros , I'm going back to Winterfell , I'm gonna um kill the people that I wanted killed and be done with all this . Like I'm not gonna .

Like I'm a spirit of vengeance , not a spirit of random assassination , you know yeah , he was like .

Speaker 2

He was like a girl need to go back to doing what the fuck she supposed to do . A girl is named Arya , she going home hope . I was like , yeah , yeah , I feel that , arya , I definitely feel it .

Speaker 1

Yeah , that's the funny thing you don't define who I am , I define who I am . I love that To .

Speaker 2

Shireen , her mom killed herself .

Speaker 1

Yeah .

Speaker 2

After she realized that , hey , I really did burn my dog , my brother . You should have known the whole time . And then I can't stand Kai burn either .

Speaker 1

Yeah , A little fucking sidekick of Cersei . You know what ? Let me talk about Cersei real quick . So Cersei had this whole arc to where , okay , she's getting pressured about . So we've been hearing that you've been having some sexual relations with some people that you shouldn't be having sexual relations with .

Speaker 2

And .

Speaker 1

I'm like oh , it's not like that you shouldn't be having sexual relations With , and I'm like oh . It's not like that . And then next thing you know like she's getting on , send on , tribe Marjorie getting locked up and all that other shit .

Uh , essentially she got Tortured by , um , the other lady not Oleana , but the other lady that was like Uh , telling her to , yeah , that the other lady that was like telling her to . That nun yeah , that nun lady that was trying to get her to confess , and she was like I don't know .

And then she finally broke on Cersei , and then they were like , okay , let's strip her down , let's cut her hair and have her walk through the street and be like shame , shame , shame throwing shit at her but the funny thing is she did a G move to where it's like no tears until it's all over , just no tears until it's all over .

And then , as soon as she get on to her destination , and then you see the tears and whatnot , and then , um , not too long . It's like she pretty much regained her constitution when she realized that she still got some um people in her pocket , in her corner .

So I'm like , okay , and then here's the thing Tuck , as a Harry Potter fan , there's a parallel that I noticed between Thirsty and Game of Thrones and Umbridge from Harry Potter .

Speaker 2

Now hear me out .

Speaker 1

I don't like any of these bitches , but what I like about them look , look , look , look . But what I like about them as villainesses is that they had the political power to be like hey , yo , yeah , I'm that bitch , but what you gonna do about it ? And that's how um bridge became the headmaster and started doing all that rules and whatnot .

And it's like , yeah , you can dislike me all you want to , but as long as the headmaster , you can't do shit to me . And then that was the same thing with cersei , to where she eventually rose to power because pretty much all her children now die . And it's like , oh well , shit , uh , who's gonna take up the throne ?

I mean , uh , fucking , daddy baratheon's gone . Uh , fucking , oh , tywin's gone , all the children gone , like who else ? And Cersei was like , hmm , it seems that you are all out of options .

And then next thing , you know , she became the queen for real and started doing all that shit , even going as far as like setting off that big explosion with the green fire , killing a whole bunch of main players while she's sipping her wine like a villainous , and all that shit . And that's why yeah , that's crazy .

Speaker 2

Wildfire is crazy , isn't it ?

Speaker 1

yeah . So that's what I'm saying , like between her and umbridge . It's like you can hate them all you want to , but that's like a power move to where you're in a position of power , to where , like , we want you gone , but it's not gonna be easy to uh have you gone .

That's like I'm not gonna try to spoil anything for y'all , uh , but for those who like jujutsu kaisen , like , hear me out . I don't understand why y'all are complaining about the final fight against sukuna being long , when that's supposed to be the point . If he's the main villain , he's not supposed to be beatable that quick .

That's what makes it better to where you're going up against someone that you don't like , but they're not easy to get rid of , so it makes it more satisfying when they are defeated .

Speaker 2

But that's just me If they had an extra 10 minutes . An extra 10 minutes , they wouldn't have died . My boy finally discovered that it was the freaking wildfire under there . If he would have been there to alert them , they would have been good . They noticed something was off . Hey , where's Cersei at ? Cersei ain't here yet . That's great .

My son ain't here neither , hmm . But everybody else is here , motherfuckers looking around each other and then boom Over with and Cersei is the evilest person . But so necessary , just so necessary .

Speaker 1

Now hear me out . Nothing against Lena .

Speaker 2

Headey . Let me tell you though , really , if you think about it , they lost more people than the Starks lost , and that's what they deserve .

Speaker 1

Nothing against Lena Headey what they deserve . Nothing gets all in a heady . But all I'm saying is , like , with cersei , the main thing , like you can tell that I'm like , oh , just tell , just about a look on your face .

I'm just not gonna like you to her like she's like always say that for some reason , no matter what cersei does , it always look like she got that stank bitch face on her . I'm like she got resting bitch face , always like almost like she got a puss on her face , like sometimes I'm like I'm like what's wrong with your smile .

Sometimes , like even when your smile is like seem kind of suck , like god damn it , I don't know . That's probably why I'm like she's such an effective villain , to where I'm like the fact that if you can compel me to not like you as an antagonist , you are doing your job well . So that's why I say my hat's off to you , miss Hedy .

That was very convincing , kind of like . Oh , ramsay Bolton and oh , that one other person that I'm thinking of , oh , um , um , joffrey , to where I'm like . Nothing against the actors , but the characters are so deplorable I'm like .

The fact that y'all can make me feel some type of way about these people just goes to show that the acting and the writing was good . But yeah , um .

Speaker 2

I think that's it . Listen Daenerys' speech . To get the Darth Ragnarok to cross the sea , Bro . That shit was so good , bro , Hell yeah .

Speaker 1

And oh yeah .

Speaker 2

All she gotta do is turn and let people look at her face , and then I'll follow you wherever you go , especially if you got Missandra with you . The island of Nott . Oh Jesus , when I tell you I want them to burn them all because the next season . But burn them all , boy , don't get me started .

Speaker 1

Not gonna lie , I was kind of hurt that Marjorie died . I mean mean I kind of like Margaery .

Speaker 2

Margaery was hot .

Speaker 1

Oh yeah , oh yeah . Here was the bombshell that dropped in season 6 , where we come to find out that Jon Snow has Targaryen in him , or at least that's where the theory started to form . Wait , hold on . Who's the father ? Who's the real father ?

And you know like Bran sees a vision in the past , where Ned is finding Lyanna Stark , who is Jon's aunt , and what turns out ? That was his mother .

Speaker 2

Yeah , that's what was crazy , isn't it ?

Speaker 1

Yeah .

Speaker 2

It's because they just planned that so good .

Speaker 1

That was season six . That's when they started going off the script . Season six is when they no longer had source material to work with and it was good for the most part . I'm like okay , okay , it's a good pig meal from season five because I'm like , yeah , that was part of the books but it was kind of a downer as far as like turn of events .

But with season six it's like okay , kind of pick things up , things are looking good for the most part . Like I said , jon's bossing up , cersei's bossing up , daenerys bossing up , and I'm like , okay , okay .

Speaker 2

Yeah , all in all , both seasons was good . I don't know why people started saying it went downhill .

Speaker 1

Both of those seasons was really good and it was timed well , not like the latter two seasons yeah , uh , like I said , I don't think it's because , oh , the writing was bad or anything , um , because I've watched season five .

But all I'm thinking is like , if you're talking about based on all the terrible shit like between Ramsey and Sansa or some of the deaths or whatnot , then okay , I can understand that part , but outside of that it was a pretty good season .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I agree , both of those seasons was dope .

Season 5 Recap and Looking Forward

The big explosion was my favorite part . I was like dang , all the movies is dead , what they gonna do . I couldn't wait for the next season . I really couldn't wait for season seven . And then I know we ain't gonna . We gonna jump into it later , but season seven start out so cold . It's a a cold opening .

Speaker 1

Hold on . You know that one song , Supervillain , by Playboy Cardi . That should have been the song that played in that moment when the wild part went off . I'm like , yeah , that's a Cersei moment right there . That's a fact .

Speaker 2

She looked out the window drinking her wine , bro . You know she outplayed a million dollars an episode to look out the window and drink wine for a whole season and that's an easy paycheck , man .

Speaker 1

I'll try to but yeah , honestly , that's all I got for a season five . So you got anything else you want to add on before I close this out no , I'm good cool , cool , cool . All right , well , with that being said , season seven and eight is gonna be next and that's gonna be the last war game of thrones , so let's go ahead and get prepared for that .

So we're gonna go into intermission . Enjoy the music and we'll be right so the dragon too yeah , yeah , that's gonna be after seven , eight , obviously , you know . as far as Game of Thrones , oh , yeah , yeah . And , of course , Season 2 coming out . So that's what we're doing in the first place . Alright , Enjoy the music . We'll be right back .
