Hello, there's your gentlemen. Welcome to another episode of the Game of Thrones podcast. I'm your host Carmine of right team review
spk_0
And I'm joined here once again by substitute teacher tray the explainer. Hello, mr. Trey
spk_0
I'm happy to be here. I'm happy to be here and this is the substitute teacher
spk_0
I like how people are calling you did you see those comments on people calling you something to teach a tray? Yeah
spk_0
For those of you wondering Preston is quite busy actually so he will not be able to join us for this and for those of you wondering
spk_0
Episode six and seven. Yes, I tried to record with my friend Joker who I love however
spk_0
Unfortunately, he had maracas going on in the background and
spk_0
Yeah, we had to we could not we could not do that
spk_0
But hopefully next time we'll have mr. Joker on and you know
spk_0
He can give us his takes as well
spk_0
Unfortunately Preston and many of the youtubers
spk_0
I know whether it's like time differences or they have like you know working for the government to destabilize
spk_0
Southeast and countries like this is sometimes you know certain things come in getting the way of recording
spk_0
But no, thank you for being with me Trey and as always guys were available on soundcloud 9 tunes
spk_0
I think we are I don't know I may have gotten suspended on there. I think I
spk_0
Might have gotten on there and maybe well, let me get back to you guys on that
spk_0
I don't fucking know. I don't know
spk_0
But we're available on YouTube of course, so you know leave that like and comment and all that stuff and yes
spk_0
because we did not have a podcast last week we'll be covering six and seven today and
spk_0
Yeah, Trey, thank you for being with me here. Are you ready to get into this? Oh?
spk_0
Yeah, for sure
spk_0
So let's start with episode six the small folk. I was actually not too big of a fan of it because I felt this episode
spk_0
had a lot of stuff just
spk_0
put in here from other episodes and
spk_0
I'll go into why so let me read the synopsis here
spk_0
Jason Lannister leads his army to the golden tooth which I thought was pretty cool
spk_0
It's the opening thing where the Lannisters and they have a cage lion for some reason. Yeah, I like that
spk_0
Yeah, yeah, they're gonna they're gonna fight with them
spk_0
They're gonna be used the cage lion in the battle or something because um
spk_0
There's like a like a some Egyptian pharaohs apparently did that so maybe they're kind of inspired by real history there
spk_0
Yeah, that's gonna be so much CGI
spk_0
To fucking unleash
spk_0
I'm lying on the riverbed because holy shit
spk_0
But a buddy of mine was asking me why why did they bring a lion? Well, they're the Lannisters and that's pretty much all you need to know
spk_0
It's that's pretty much it but no we got to see the golden tooth finally because in the books
spk_0
They always mentioned the golden tooth that comes up fairly often
spk_0
It's kind of like a pathway into the into the western lens and we finally get to see it here more
spk_0
Minor houses that are sworn to other great houses. I love seeing that stuff because in the previous episode five
spk_0
We saw a master piper and I think um
spk_0
Well, I forgot the other one yeah, no and they're sworn to the river lens. I love I love seeing stuff like that
spk_0
I love seeing that stuff too because like I think of the the final season a game of thrones with head that like epic
spk_0
Great council or whatever and you don't even know it like the three other guys's houses are they don't they're not even like the writers
spk_0
Didn't even write down what those are and then here you're like yes
spk_0
I reckon so many minor houses. I can read those
spk_0
Siddles and know who they are because they break their fucking sigils on their on their gorgets
spk_0
Am I saying that word right gorgets or gorgets?
spk_0
Gorgets. Thank you. Yeah, but they're like like Oscar Tully put his like the trout on his gorgets. So
spk_0
and and in game of thrones the only minor houses we ever see are those sworn to house Stark like
spk_0
fucking
spk_0
in
spk_0
Black
spk_0
You got more months and umber and car stark and so and so forth and a bunch of like random meet-up ones
spk_0
But no, I love seeing that here, you know that one was great
spk_0
Um, and then we get another small council scene with Amand I
spk_0
Have to ask you this
spk_0
Do you feel like Amin is becoming way too much of a fucking anime villain now like before it was a meme and now it's just
spk_0
He just feels like a villain now like an actual anime villain
spk_0
Yeah, and it's weird how quickly his change happened because they like
spk_0
Because okay, I was thinking beginning of the season they make they like tried to save Amin right there like oh it was an accident that he killed that kid
spk_0
Killed Luke and and they were trying to redeem his character like he's not actually that evil even though everybody thinks he's evil
spk_0
And then like for some reason I don't even know when the change happened
spk_0
He's just anime villain. Yeah, he's killing his brother. He's
spk_0
Um in the council and he's like yelling at everybody
spk_0
He's because I'm trying to think he is this the the council meeting where he
spk_0
Um, Laurie's is trying to like manipulate him and he just like sees right through it. Yeah
spk_0
Yeah, yeah, he is he I think he is like anime villain like he's he's less interesting now because he's not
spk_0
I know he doesn't feel that entry complex or deep
spk_0
He's someone is gonna try countering you by saying well power corrupts
spk_0
Yeah, I understand that but at the same time I think my issue is also the actor's voice
spk_0
So the episode opens up with him going
spk_0
Yeah, um send send word to the prince region that we will move when he joins us on vegar
spk_0
And the scene cuts back to Amin reading that message and he goes he dares to summon me
spk_0
He sounds like a power ranger's villain. They like like he really does
spk_0
He sounds like the English dub of like a my here academia villain
spk_0
Wow, I hate you
spk_0
You are you like you're right he does
spk_0
During during the rook's respattle when he's about to burn Aegon he goes
spk_0
Trecaurus it's like my man needs like a fucking a reekolo a something for his throat holy shit
spk_0
Why do you sound like that also we also we get a scene before I move off Amin
spk_0
Him relieving allocent of whatever her job was what is her she's just advisor to the king yeah
spk_0
I think it's weird that she's on the small council to begin with like she's like surprise she's dismissed
spk_0
But like she doesn't really have a
spk_0
Title I guess she's the region or queen mother or something their king mother or something like that
spk_0
Queen Dowager
spk_0
Queen Dowager. Yeah, like I don't know how much
spk_0
Advice she'd be supplying you know
spk_0
What like that's why I thought it was so weird that renaissance into king's landing to have a meeting with her in episode three
spk_0
Like what power does allocent have at all right now even back at during episode even even in season one
spk_0
When like before Amin kills Luke what power that allocent even have back then everyone was kind of working against her
spk_0
Right, what what power has she ever really had over her sons either
spk_0
She I don't know it doesn't seem like she had much control over her sons period to begin with
spk_0
That's that's true. That's true
spk_0
I also want to bring up a rain ear on that topic because apparently
spk_0
So Stefan Darklin had a Targaryen
spk_0
Pretty much a princess at that point is Targaryen princess areiana Targaryen which that does not exist
spk_0
That's not a thing. I feel like this is an attempt to do Ed Sheeran for House of the Dragon
spk_0
I saw people complaining about this too where um they call her a princess
spk_0
But it the if you plot it out on a timeline
spk_0
It's probably before the conquest of of western like Aegon's conquest
spk_0
So like she probably wouldn't be a princess unless like they use that title even before they were kings and stuff
spk_0
That's fine. You're right. You're right that it is an Ed Sheeran situation where they're like
spk_0
Integrating their own character. Well, and even in the show continuity
spk_0
There's that scene if you remember at
spk_0
Joffri's funeral in the sept or whatever where tywin's talking to Tom and
spk_0
And he mentions
spk_0
several kings like he mentions. I think jaharies
spk_0
Um, and he mentions baylor
spk_0
And then he mentions like
spk_0
Oatho or something like that like a a made up Targaryen king that never existed at least never existed in like the show in the book continuity
spk_0
So
spk_0
They do make up stuff from time to time trying to think what
spk_0
On a tywin
spk_0
What it was it because I remember what it was and people were like what do that is otho otho like like a Targaryen or whatever
spk_0
Oh gosh. Yeah, yeah, I'm I have the scene right here. Uh, oh good good
spk_0
Uh
spk_0
Tywin says he says the time and what makes a good king think what's a good king single most important quality time and goes holiness
spk_0
Yes, baylor the blessed was holy and pious he built this sept
spk_0
He also named a six-year-old boy hyped septum because he thought the boy could work miracles
spk_0
He ended up fasting himself into an early grave because food was of this world and this world was sinful
spk_0
Tom and says justice
spk_0
Yes, a good king must be just or as the first was just everyone applauded his reforms or nobles and commoners alike
spk_0
He was murdered in his sleep after less than a year by his own brother
spk_0
Was that truly just of him to abandon his subjects to an evil he was too gullible to recognize
spk_0
Yeah, I don't know who worse the first was unless he's talking about my horse
spk_0
Aegon's brother
spk_0
Yeah, he's like half brother oros Baratheon like the head of house Baratheon but he never was king is the thing
spk_0
Yeah, so
spk_0
Yeah, well, it's weird why make up a because there's plenty of them
spk_0
There's plenty a Targaryen kings. I don't know why the script writer decided to just make up their own king there
spk_0
Because you could have said like I don't know. What was it just?
spk_0
Mm-hmm
spk_0
Like I don't know. I'm thinking of like like people called jahari's just I guess like and you could say like oh he
spk_0
He was not able to stop the dance of the dragons or something like that
spk_0
He was just but he did I don't know something. I don't know you can make up something
spk_0
You can make or for some of the future rulers like that we don't know anything about like I don't know
spk_0
May lore or whatever may car may car like I we know nothing about like may
spk_0
Cars rain or anything or I don't know dare on the second. I don't know something like that
spk_0
Good you could figure out something, but I guess I guess they decided that so this is a situation like that where they are
spk_0
What is their what is her name?
spk_0
Ariana Ariana Targaryen. I looked it up. There's no Ariana Targaryen. I'm assuming it's the show like some what giving invitation to Ariana Grande
spk_0
I think I'm just assuming that why
spk_0
I
spk_0
I don't know maybe there's a person on the on the cast who really likes Ariana Grande like how
spk_0
Maisie Williams really love that she's here. Oh my god
spk_0
That's so fucking stupid that it's just like yeah, she's a fan of him. So let's let's get him on the show and give him like the scene where his face is there
spk_0
And then kill him right or castrate and whatever they did in that character apparently
spk_0
By the way, um, we were on Allison. She actually had a good scene this this episode episode six where she's talking about Daron
spk_0
And I like the sad reality of how Daron according to Gwayne is very kind and also the only son she'd never raised so
spk_0
Yeah
spk_0
I let that scene with um Gwayne
spk_0
Hightower and her is a I think that's like the best I thought that was the best scene in the episode
spk_0
because they're just they're pretty solid actors and um really that was your favorite scene and not the Missoria Reneira kiss
spk_0
Oh, okay, okay, I forgot that this was that episode um that I said I was like right on Goryneira
spk_0
Oh, yeah, it kind of felt a little random, but okay
spk_0
Well, they were trauma bonding and like you're talking and Missoria is talking about incest and you're talking about incest to the wrong person because the Targaryen's a very horny for that
spk_0
But I do there wasn't a theory that people were putting out and I thought about it at first because
spk_0
Missoria historically and in in the source material was always Damon's
spk_0
Haant like Damon's um for lack of a better term lackey
spk_0
Uh, but I don't mind them switching it up a bit
spk_0
However, the theory that people were putting forth is that Missoria is playing Reneira
spk_0
Oh like lady Mary weather with Cersei. Mm-hmm
spk_0
Okay, I and and people and and was it pressed pressed and asked me did I feel like the chemistry
spk_0
And I was like yeah, yeah, I kind of did
spk_0
I really feel the chemistry yeah, and that's seen in particular
spk_0
But no other scene before then, you know like I don't know just heard like complimenting her like it's funny because
spk_0
At the beginning of the season we were joking about Jason and uh what's his name
spk_0
Something stark. Oh a Kriegenstark
spk_0
Kriegenstark having like chemistry and like oh, yeah, they should kiss like you you can ride my dragon or something like that
spk_0
And then like it's funny that we were joking about because I joked about it in this scene and they actually did it
spk_0
I was like oh, oh my to be fair to the people saying that um
spk_0
They didn't have chemistry
spk_0
Kind of yes, remember Reneira's whole arc this entire season for the most of it is
spk_0
Her just like trying very hard to make sure that like this is something that she really wants
spk_0
All-out war there's no turning back
spk_0
We we need to be super duper sure and all her counselors are like
spk_0
You know
spk_0
Short of badmouthing her they're disrespecting her doing this this and this they're questioning her and they have their own reasons and some of those reasons are valid
spk_0
But if you think about it, Missaria is the only person not giving Reneira shit for any of the stuff she's doing and outright helping her do some of those things
spk_0
So it make to me it made sense
spk_0
Yeah for I agree I totally agree with that we're like in this in like I really understood why
spk_0
She felt that way because like she everybody's shaped like her whole council including her son
spk_0
It's like constantly shooting on her any chance they can get and it's like so frustrating and I get it that she's so frustrating
spk_0
If you're somebody to actually
spk_0
Know be like no you're doing the right thing and and don't listen to them like
spk_0
That she feels in that moment where she embraces her and stuff. It's like yeah, I get that. That was really like I felt that
spk_0
So I thought it was good. I know a lot of people out of a whole bunch of problems on didn't like
spk_0
Saudi Arabia like
spk_0
They were okay with the child killing and they were okay with all the other like crazy. They're okay with the insults and all that but like the lesbian stuff. No
spk_0
That's always weird to me because because you're right and I saw people complaining about it on twitter too
spk_0
Like I'll know people that are right weighing or whatever or who were like anti-woak or whatever like this is game of thrones
spk_0
You're talking about in game of thrones like
spk_0
Yeah, yeah, you should kind of expect like I don't know
spk_0
Lesbian kissing on game of thrones. It's like a staple, you know
spk_0
They were trying to because because the because the the actress for Rainier and Medarzy
spk_0
Does they dumb pronouns
spk_0
Whenever like anything pronoun, you know the right always gets very upset
spk_0
It did it they tried to like
spk_0
Latch onto the interview where with the misaria actress where she said that in the script
spk_0
Rainier was not supposed to kiss misaria. It was supposed to be somewhat of a tease
spk_0
But apparently Rainier or just the actress just went for it and
spk_0
Yeah, so I don't mind. Fuck it. I I in episode seven. I wanted to go back them to go right back to it
spk_0
But that's just me. I have no problem with that at all to me
spk_0
It was of course of course Rainier would would be
spk_0
somewhat closer to misaria. I mean sorry is the only person glazing her up everybody else is just talking shit to her
spk_0
So of course, but um
spk_0
This episode is like her only friend. She's like her
spk_0
True friend and and she's she's her husband's husband left her she's all she feels like totally alone
spk_0
And I get it like and that happens where people like
spk_0
Or are at a low point in their life and they have like a friend and
spk_0
The that'll happen where you mix you mix like the the friendship and that type of support there with like a romantic feeling as well
spk_0
Like um, I don't know. It's pretty common for people to feel that way. So 100% yeah, I thought of his good. Yeah
spk_0
I didn't mind. I don't want to have more of the scene in the scene where the door opened. I thought it was gonna be Damon
spk_0
I'll see you David open in door like he's like I'm back
spk_0
I finally made my decision to support you
spk_0
And he's like I'll put money season three we get like a like a threesome between them. I'll put fucking money on that
spk_0
I would why not
spk_0
So what else happened in this episode? I feel like a lot of stuff did happen
spk_0
I'm the topic of misaria. We got to talk about how
spk_0
The master of whispers
spk_0
For house the dragon are fucking dog shit compared to the master of whispers in game of thrones. Larus is supposed to be
spk_0
The guy is awful. He's just job. He's terrible Damon snuck in
spk_0
In out of king's landing and then arranged the assassination attempt
spk_0
Rainier of snuck in and out
spk_0
Missaria still has her own spies and is putting out propaganda my man. What the fuck are they they sent little boats
spk_0
What supplies from dragon stone all the way to king's landing. How did you not catch us any of this?
spk_0
Right, right
spk_0
Like yeah, like like your missar like it's it's not that missar is like good like a really good master whispers
spk_0
It's that larries is like a really really bad one because I'm thinking about the next episode
spk_0
Where what is it the justice here? What's his name?
spk_0
A lot is the one telling
spk_0
He's the one telling larries about like the the the nude the dragon seed situation like why is he of all people
spk_0
He's like the judge. He's like the justice guy. Why is he know about that?
spk_0
Um and larries is like oh, I'll tell the king because like okay earlier
spk_0
You could at least make the excuse that larries is maybe like a double agent
spk_0
You know
spk_0
But they've kind of like undid that where larries is at least in this episode
spk_0
This is the episode where a gun finally wakes up and larries is like talking to him and giving him that like pep talk
spk_0
Um, but you see that larries is actually no. He actually is on agon side
spk_0
Like he he he is giving agon like honest heartfelt advice on like
spk_0
To to live and to become king and stuff like that and maybe I don't know like I thought I thought before
spk_0
Okay, maybe the excuse is that like
spk_0
larries was the one that was playing both sides and he was a bad master whispers just like
spk_0
To enable raneera or something like that
spk_0
Um, but no like yeah, he actually is a bad master whispers is what I'm getting at. Oh, he's fucking terrible and and
spk_0
Whatever happened to something had to have happened in the writer's room because season one he was such a creep and then season two
spk_0
He has what no scenes with Allison at all. He just latches on to agon
spk_0
He has one scene with Allison and they're and she doesn't remark on that he's a creep remember
spk_0
Like where he's talking to they're talking to each other and and she's like whatever
spk_0
Viseric's intentions were died with him or whatever right it's too late to undo
spk_0
Um, and like they don't mention that he's like a total creep that gets off to her feet like that's just left unremarked
spk_0
They're like their relationship acts like they're just business like it's totally normal. It's very strange
spk_0
Yeah, that they totally undid the creep angle like it's not been mentioned and he doesn't act like a creep
spk_0
He acts like a pretty kind guy this season, which is weird
spk_0
Oh, yeah him
spk_0
Excuse me him telling a agon you survived dragonfire. They'll write you in the legends
spk_0
That was
spk_0
My man's a dude my man's a bro. He's he's he's he's latched on to agon, but like
spk_0
I'm assuming because agon gave him that position and like lifted him up like okay fine
spk_0
But this loyalty I feel like we should have had more of an explanation as to why he's so loyal
spk_0
Yeah, he because because I thought he was earlier in the season and I think this was what intended is that he was manipulating agon
spk_0
like agon was the easier to manipulate and aim and
spk_0
Solver it through it. So he latches on to agon
spk_0
But the scene in this episode where he has that like heart to heart with agon about
spk_0
Being a disabled person and what that's like in their world
spk_0
um
spk_0
It feels deeper like he actually does like him like it and wants him to succeed in stuff
spk_0
Um, I agree with that actually is a good point
spk_0
Yeah, like he's not just using him as a pond like now he actually does care about agon
spk_0
Um and wants him I don't know he sees he sees a bit of himself an agon and that kind of thing
spk_0
um, yeah
spk_0
So that's a good I said you're a good point
spk_0
The other thing that happened in this episode and and before I go into this are you you're familiar with
spk_0
Preston's genetics of the dragons and whatnot
spk_0
Mm-hmm. Okay good because I'm not familiar with what
spk_0
Um, we got to talk about C-smoke bonding with Adam instead of Stefan Darklin
spk_0
So they both have on I guess Stefan Darklin had a drop of dragon blood and this is a ck2 game of throne's mod
spk_0
Reference just to drop a dragon blood
spk_0
We used to think that would be enough to tame the dragon, but I guess not some people are saying that laynor is dead
spk_0
And therefore that is why a new writer can
spk_0
Write the dragon I believe that laynor is alive because
spk_0
The storyline is gonna need him in the future to help Alan
spk_0
Find the the missing children if you know what I'm talking about
spk_0
Oh, oh, okay, okay, I like that as a as a to bring bring him back
spk_0
I like that as to bring him back to find the kids in in sos
spk_0
That would be kind of a good redemption for his character too
spk_0
Hundred percent a way to bring him back hundred percent, but I think
spk_0
Laynor is still alive, but the bond is just like a broken Wi-Fi signal
spk_0
So C-smoke is trying to find someone close enough to
spk_0
Laynor with his blood and psychic psychic connection that you know, it's still there
spk_0
I believe if laynor was dead maybe Stefan Darklin could have written
spk_0
C-smoke, but because laynor is still out there then that's why c-smoke went specifically for Adam of Hall and
spk_0
I didn't mind it. It's just the one thing that annoys me is the behind the scene stuff where Ryan Condal says
spk_0
We don't know
spk_0
How the bond between dragons and its writer works and I think George R Martin himself in a block post said
spk_0
Yeah, we're gonna explore that more wins of winter and dreams spring
spk_0
Yeah, that's it I didn't when I didn't like about is that just C-smoke just like sought him out
spk_0
Mm-hmm, and like I
spk_0
And people were are pulling like the you know like a few of how like religious people go like the Lord works in mysterious ways
spk_0
Like that's kind of how like it like it's it's not an explanation
spk_0
It's just kind of like don't think about it like don't think about it because we're not gonna explain it yet
spk_0
um
spk_0
Like like C-smoke just randomly decided to choose this one guy and in the next episode it's implied that
spk_0
Uh his his mom right is is a Targaryen or maybe was part Targaryen or something? Yes
spk_0
That's what that's what it was hardly implied because I guess you have to have
spk_0
This is why I ask you about Preston's genetics with the ragnas and whatnot like um
spk_0
I guess you have to have a specific amount of blood because in that very next episode episode seven which we'll get into in a minute
spk_0
Coralus says to Alan yeah
spk_0
um even though we're valerians we're no dragonlords
spk_0
But for hundreds of years the valarians and Targaryens both have like intermarried so
spk_0
Surely you have enough Targaryen blood
spk_0
Like Aegon the conqueror is part is he part um
spk_0
Valarian like I think he's like half valarians. Yeah, he's half valarian
spk_0
like he his mother was a valarian um
spk_0
And the Targaryens and the valarians intermarried a ton like a ton so you'd expect there to be
spk_0
Some like ainis okay ainis married a valarian
spk_0
um
spk_0
Yeah, yeah, they should they they should they like the valarians should have dragon rider blood in them like
spk_0
the problem is is that
spk_0
We our sample size is so small like that's the thing is like who can ride a dragon and how much blood is needed like how much
spk_0
Targaryen ancestry is needed to ride a dragon
spk_0
is is hard to parse out
spk_0
um
spk_0
Because
spk_0
Okay, cuz I cuz I commented under press to say I commented under press to think because in this episode is this episode where
spk_0
they were like um
spk_0
Oh, maybe it was the episode before we're we're
spk_0
Jason in renear our talking and he calls the magrals
spk_0
Hey, no, that's the that's the next one
spk_0
But the one before this where they're like the blood she renear is like the blood's too thin or something right what is it um
spk_0
And and I was like calculate and written it's kind of funny for a renear to say that because she's only
spk_0
Two-thirds Targaryen if you look at the family tree
spk_0
Right and let's remember
spk_0
Ryan condo is is fun
spk_0
I love I love Ryan condo throwing book fans a bone every now and then with some of his like
spk_0
His knowledge of the we could tell he's a fan
spk_0
But he's at the same time he's also fucks with the the the source material in a sense
spk_0
And that's okay to fuck with it because it's his own separate thing not a full one-to-one adaptation
spk_0
But technically renear should be mixed race if you think about it because jaharis I believe is half philorean right
spk_0
Yeah, and so jaharis himself that we see an episode one of season one
spk_0
That dude looks like the widest person that has ever existed he looks like the blueprint for white people
spk_0
so
spk_0
Like I
spk_0
Okay, like and don't know in renear renear's own children are
spk_0
Are one-third or what is it? It's like about one-third
spk_0
Targaryen because because they're they're full-blooded on their father side at least in the show
spk_0
With with how strong so it's it's running pretty thin even in her kids
spk_0
um
spk_0
But that that's implying that it it's inherited in a specific way or something like that
spk_0
They'll get to the problem is we don't know like our sample size is so so small on like what counts as what who can actually be a dragon rider and how much Targaryen do you need to be because
spk_0
Okay, cuz
spk_0
Hugh hammer in the next episode is revealed to be
spk_0
half
spk_0
His his mom was Sarah. So he's half your comment by the way
spk_0
What did I say? I was trying to find it a second to go back this was episode five. Just say it out. Let me see if I can oh my god
spk_0
So you said in episode so press and you said this in press and um
spk_0
Uh, how's the dragon watch season two episode five the region you said the quote unquote the blood may be too thin
spk_0
And you said renear your own mother was only half Targaryen at best your kids with harwin are like one-third Targaryen
spk_0
To which someone replied to you and says three eighths Targaryen which is slightly more than one third
spk_0
But your point stands I was rounding down
spk_0
Yeah
spk_0
But yeah, yeah, it's that's the thing is it's running pretty thin in her own kids
spk_0
um
spk_0
And let in less like house strong for some reason has dragon riding
spk_0
ancestry in their house which makes no sense um
spk_0
Yeah, yeah, so so at the very least you only need to be like one third Targaryen is the thing in order to ride a dragon
spk_0
Because all her kid all her kids are dragon riders, right?
spk_0
Like jace luke
spk_0
They're they're both dragon riders which which I don't know the chances of that happening would be pretty slim
spk_0
But also they had the advantage of having the dragon eggs in the cribs with them because remember Targaryens for the most part
spk_0
The I don't know if this is in the show is why I feel like it is in the show as well
spk_0
Maybe not but remembering the source material how they say like they put a dragon egg in the in the crib with the babies
spk_0
So they can bond super early
spk_0
Yeah
spk_0
So yeah, I think that's in the show continuity too. I'm pretty sure they brought it up at least once
spk_0
But how come they didn't put a dragon egg in aamans crib
spk_0
Oh, it's a good point. This is a good point
spk_0
So
spk_0
Maybe maybe they're there weren't enough eggs or something like that. I don't know. That's a good that's a good point
spk_0
I the problem is I think George hasn't put this much thought into it either so it's hard to say like that's the thing is
spk_0
um
spk_0
Like I don't know if George has really thought this through like ancestry wise like and and and and the thing is the problem with fire and blood is that the ancestry of characters is often ambiguous like in the books
spk_0
It's very unclear if
spk_0
Renera's kids are actually
spk_0
With harwin strong or not like it's it's kept very very ambiguous like they very well could be
spk_0
um lane or his kids as well and and those were just lies
spk_0
um so
spk_0
Well mushroom tells us that uh there was a threesome in the sources here at least between renaera lane or in his lovers so
spk_0
Something must have gotten in there somehow something
spk_0
George George has this weird thing um and this is something he brings up with his gay characters a lot that like because it's it's brought up with um
spk_0
uh
spk_0
Renly in um
spk_0
Uh, what's her what's her name? I'm really bad right now uh
spk_0
Tyrell the Tyrell girl what's her name?
spk_0
Which one? This is a marjorie
spk_0
Marjorie with where stannis is like like marjorie is gonna stay a maid and you're a bad riddly like it's a kind of weird that like
spk_0
Really wouldn't even try you know like try to have a biological kid like there's things you can do like I don't know
spk_0
So I'm gonna be very real with you once upon a time. Yeah, when I was in high school. I know this one kid named chris
spk_0
Coolest fucking dude ever and yeah
spk_0
I asked him one time because we were 14. I asked him like so chris so like you don't like girls. You go's no
spk_0
Have you tried and he's like yeah? I tried it is just couldn't like and I asked him what happened
spk_0
Well, I just couldn't get hard. Oh
spk_0
Like have you like you tried doing it yourself and then like you know trying to get in there and he's goes
spk_0
Yeah, it's just
spk_0
Every time I like would like try to like you know put it in it just get softer like I just I just I don't find it attractive
spk_0
And he goes between us. I find it kind of gross. Oh, okay. Sorry to hear that well well now
spk_0
So I maybe that's the problem is just he can't that's the thing
spk_0
Because I just know historically like there's many like historical figures like where
spk_0
Being get you had to hide it or whatever or where you had to have political marriages because that's like the middle
spk_0
The real middle ages like there are so many political marriages and somebody sexuality was like a relevant where they did have kids
spk_0
Like they would like they would have kids
spk_0
It would just like they would not stay with like they would not be like a regular thing
spk_0
Um, so I don't know maybe I'm maybe I'm maybe I'm wrong because George has this thing where his gay characters can never
spk_0
Have kids they can't they can't have kids with a woman. They just they won't even try
spk_0
Um, I don't know they should try right you could try because in the show don't they bring that off is it went on a
spk_0
Rindley's wedding night doesn't it's in Marjorie like really chill she's like she turns around
spk_0
Brother could come in yeah
spk_0
By the way, uh, I think
spk_0
George I think did confirm that Jason Luke are bastards. So there's this um, I've been I've been saving
spk_0
I've been saving this for quite some time. So give that a look see
spk_0
Because I'm one of the people that are like no, I don't believe Jason Luke are actually bastards in the source material
spk_0
I'm like in the minority
spk_0
Well, this is coming directly from George's mouth unless this is really good AI
spk_0
Well, is this him talking about the show though here's the thing is is the show and the books have different continuity
spk_0
And and what's in the show is not always what's in the books like the books are purposefully kept ambiguous. What's the truth?
spk_0
Um, I guess this is George say want to know the context of that that interview
spk_0
I know I see what you mean where he's like yes, she has three kids with with them
spk_0
All right, I guess
spk_0
um
spk_0
Okay, so so yeah anyways, I don't know how we got on that
spk_0
Like the point is that her kids are are one third
spk_0
Targaryen like they're it's running pretty thin by them
spk_0
But they can still be all three of them are dragon riders right like jauphries of dragon rider too
spk_0
um
spk_0
Wait, no this guy remember this guy said three eighths Targaryen
spk_0
Three eight sorry, sorry like are three tenths or something like that three eights okay
spk_0
Three eights all right, there's three eighths Targaryen a little above one third all right
spk_0
So and I and I message that guy I said three eighths how to fuck you get to that conclusion and someone else replied
spk_0
Three Targaryen grandparents out of a possible eight
spk_0
Okay, okay
spk_0
I'm so confused considering like all the bullshit all the bullshit
spk_0
So yeah, so at the very least someone with three eighths Targaryen ancestry can be a rotten dragon rider and in in in
spk_0
In rainira's case all three of her kids
spk_0
We're dragon riders and all three of them would have three eighths
spk_0
um, so it can run pretty thin by the by the sounds of it
spk_0
For people that don't know I was a genetics major in in college
spk_0
so so I know a little bit about genetics and
spk_0
And pressed and pressed and had that genetics of of dragons series
spk_0
Where he I think his like finding was that like he thinks that it's like an excellent
spk_0
gene where it can only be inherited from the mom
spk_0
um, but I don't know if George put them much thawed into it because it isn't all over it
spk_0
If that's true then that makes the most sense that at that c-smoke will go for Adam
spk_0
If his mom was like a figure of his mom
spk_0
Yeah
spk_0
um
spk_0
But but who know if that's a thing is like there's I think jor I think George probably did not put that much thawed into it because he
spk_0
I don't know
spk_0
gets too crazy
spk_0
um
spk_0
George doesn't care about genetics that much because because because we think about how inbred house Targaryen is and and how healthy they are relatively
spk_0
um
spk_0
That then again then again I I was taught I did a this is a bit of a tangent too where I was looking at the tallemies
spk_0
Which are like the historical
spk_0
Royal royal house of of Egypt that was was pretty embedded they're known for embedded in their direct inspiration of house Targaryen
spk_0
and um this in their about as inbred as tar the Targaryens were or maybe less
spk_0
I think Targaryens are less inbred than the tallemies which is kind of funny if you look at their family tree
spk_0
um
spk_0
But there's not much evidence to show that they're physically
spk_0
sickly like like that the imbreding um
spk_0
Did that much damage to them physically
spk_0
So so maybe they just got really lucky
spk_0
because the thing
spk_0
Like the thing is imbreding increases your chance of having like these bad recessive
spk_0
Diseases and stuff being inherited, but it does not mean that it's like inevitable
spk_0
Like it just means that your risk is increased so maybe the Targaryens are very very lucky and avoided it anyways
spk_0
That's interesting the tallemies didn't have like anybody with web feed or anything like that or
spk_0
And he like no like that's the thing is historic like okay for one thing we know that they're they were not that infertile
spk_0
Like relative to other ancient royal families they were really not that infertile like they were just as fertile as
spk_0
Um, I'm thinking of like the Macedonian royal family that was contemporaneous with them like um
spk_0
I think one brother sister couple had like
spk_0
Like six kids or something like that like it obviously didn't mess with their fertility
spk_0
Um, and then like we don't really hear that much about them being physically
spk_0
It was weird looking um
spk_0
Like we know that
spk_0
There's a couple tallemies that were fat like morbidly obese, but that's like they were royalty in
spk_0
Ancient times and of course like you're gonna get like one or two that are gonna be fat because because a lack of exercise
spk_0
Or because they have so much food in front of them um
spk_0
So it's it's unclear if that's just environmental like that those examples could just be environmental
spk_0
But besides that there's not much evidence that they're physically um
spk_0
Like we're like physically it like deformed or anything like that um
spk_0
But but again like the family trees kind of incomplete
spk_0
We don't know what happened to certain people at certain points because the sources are just murky um
spk_0
But like from like the evidence visible to us there's not much evidence that they're
spk_0
That uh, they're in the imbrewing led to them looking weird
spk_0
Besides like some of them being fat which could just be environmental yeah
spk_0
so
spk_0
Speaking of deformities we got to talk about this deformity to give a fucking storyline with uh Damon um
spk_0
I had no problem with him and heron hull having these visions. I like Alice Rivers. I think she's a cool character and uh
spk_0
But I feel as though
spk_0
This storyline has gone on one episode too long. Yeah, it's just a we're stuck in heron hull and
spk_0
Nothing's happening. It's just like over and over
spk_0
Damans having visions again and again nothing happens. He's tripping on the rooms. He's fucking up the balance of the riverlands
spk_0
And that's an interesting storyline. I like that
spk_0
but
spk_0
Only for so long he went on one episode too long which let's break into episode seven the red so yes
spk_0
um
spk_0
Oscar Tully's grandfather finally dies. He finally comes in and he puts a stop to the storyline and then
spk_0
Damon is forced dude. It's real. I don't know if you've played like games like Mass Effect or
spk_0
Have you played the most recent boulders gate three? Oh
spk_0
Are you talking about like you where your actions have consequences? Yeah, like this
spk_0
Yes, they would this really lower like fall hours on my lurch
spk_0
The river lords were the river lurch wards did not like that
spk_0
This really did feel like that. Yeah, like
spk_0
Yeah
spk_0
Telltale game. Yeah
spk_0
So this is it's really felt like that. I didn't I did like
spk_0
Damon's visions were trippy and and and crazy but Alice rivers she really
spk_0
For me at least her and specifically Simon strong really held all of that together
spk_0
I really like Simon strong like I love the fan strong actor wasn't wasn't that good like this this this plotline would be
spk_0
Like even more boring like because I was getting kind of bored with the demon plot
spk_0
Yeah, like I think you're right that it was one episode too many where it felt like we were just killing time
spk_0
But you're right that like the Simon strong actors too fun and the
spk_0
Alice rivers actresses too fun that like they they were the one thing that was keeping it from being like
spk_0
Real people getting real bored because yeah, they're fun
spk_0
And the fandom loves the family the fandom loves Simon strong like
spk_0
people that's such a nice welcoming surprise
spk_0
I actually really like that the fandom is like rallying around Simon strong. He's great. He's absolutely great
spk_0
so
spk_0
I'm really happy about that, but
spk_0
man
spk_0
It came to a very decent conclusion and I love the river river lens politics all that stuff
spk_0
I really like that awesome all around and obviously episode eight is when it ultimately ends
spk_0
But this is kind of
spk_0
The end of like the river lens heron halt stuff which okay fine, but
spk_0
Oh, fuck man. It was uh, it was it was rough. It was rough just because it went on a little too long. It was rough, but yeah
spk_0
So okay the episode opens up with Rainier a confronting Adam of Hall
spk_0
C-Spoke's new writer who pledges field tea to her. I really like Adam of Hall because the actor
spk_0
Has this happy to be here face have you ever seen the dodge scenes?
spk_0
He does he has like this nice calming smile like hey guys, what's up? Yeah, yeah, that's so cool
spk_0
Yeah, I'll join your side. Yeah, I got your back. He feels like that best friend that everyone should have
spk_0
Because he's just so nice and friendly and he remembers your birthday and he sends you a card
spk_0
That's that's what Adam of Hall feels like the I made and I think that's the actor
spk_0
His personality coming through let me try and find this for you house of the dragon
spk_0
I someone on the house of the dragon subreddit. I got sent this sent me
spk_0
um
spk_0
Adam of Hall's actor
spk_0
The dude went up went and found out every single person
spk_0
Who was like a uh an actor on the show and he took a selfie with all of them
spk_0
And he has just like this big goofy smile trying to find it
spk_0
And he has like this big goofy smile that he's taking a picture a selfie with everybody
spk_0
And you know what I kind of like that. It's very wholesome of him. He just seems like a wholesome guy. Yeah, I found
spk_0
I found well he's yeah, I'm looking I just looked up this actress named Clint Liberty um and uh and he says
spk_0
All these pictures he's just really happy to be there. Yeah. Yeah. All these behind the scene fix him with the in the Darcy and
spk_0
and the late the um
spk_0
What's his name the
spk_0
Oh the C snake actor
spk_0
Oh, uh, uh, uh, fuck I forgot his name, but here is the
spk_0
Here's the subreddit where he's he's taking a picture with the emigracy taking a picture with the Olivia cook
spk_0
Uh, the bala actress the goreless actors with auto high tower with the other two dragon seeds
spk_0
He's with uh
spk_0
Egon he's with his his stunt double. He's with Alan and he's with Kristen Cole
spk_0
He's with Matt Smith and he's just in every picture. He's in he just has this like yeah
spk_0
Like smile and it bleeds into his character that he's happy to be here
spk_0
And I fucking let's in fact, I love him with uh with all I like this picture with him with all of them
spk_0
It's like his like mouth like as wide open as possible
spk_0
I love his great. It's great. I absolutely love it
spk_0
So
spk_0
Good for the like I like the actor being here. I I love I like that they cast him specifically very good casting
spk_0
It sucks that it took so long for us to get this because
spk_0
Alan and Alan Alan and Adam both combine have probably have like maybe five to ten minutes of screen time
spk_0
In the entire series which and they don't really do much um in a lot of the screen time that they're given like
spk_0
I don't know these have kind of
spk_0
Kind of like normal mundane conversations and um um so yeah, I hope they give them where they don't do much
spk_0
homie fucking next season Alan and Corlis's scenes
spk_0
90% of them take place on the docs
spk_0
On the doc yes, like the garden, you know like how there was that garden and
spk_0
Yeah, like it's the docs the the high tide docs every's like oh
spk_0
Driftmark docs
spk_0
Every fucking other episode of the docs and like Corlis is trying to give Adam this job
spk_0
Out now Adam Alan this job and he and let me show you this picture real quick
spk_0
I need to show you this I put this in my review for episode seven
spk_0
What the fuck is this stance this in my review?
spk_0
I said this is a stance of like a child who didn't I get the right toy in his happy meal? What is this stance?
spk_0
What the fuck is that?
spk_0
As I was so sad this is amazing
spk_0
He's like I did not get the happy meal
spk_0
What do you mean happy meal didn't come with a toy?
spk_0
Yeah, this is kind of a funny stance. He's this is so it's so this is so right
spk_0
It reminds me of jesus stance when aiman is like talking shit to him. Look at jace
spk_0
What is that stance my dude?
spk_0
What is that Uber driver haircut? Look at that. What the fuck is that?
spk_0
I forgot jesus shitty ass haircut in the first season and how awful his haircut is oh my gosh
spk_0
And it's so funny because they let him use his regular hair this time
spk_0
And he looks so hot and handsome like why did they not give him oh my god
spk_0
He's a actor oh my gosh. That's fucking true. Oh man, but no the the the whole the whole brothers they
spk_0
I love Adam Alan needs more to do Mike. I know he becomes very important later on but fuck
spk_0
Alan is man way more to do
spk_0
next season
spk_0
Because yeah, there's he just did not do my like I think the only thing I remember him doing was shaving his his head
spk_0
And he had that little white stubble
spk_0
Oh speaking of which speaking of of you
spk_0
It sucks that all of the characters who like had somewhat of a some screen time
spk_0
They would have had more screen time had all that screen time not went to allisoned having some kind of existential crisis
spk_0
Which I don't care about
spk_0
Because this this episode was the the famous allocin
spk_0
Lake late scene it's it's a philia from hamlet or at least I thought that's where she was going you know how
spk_0
Ophelia like drowns herself. Yeah, that she was gonna drown herself
spk_0
But she didn't I and I saw people commenting that like oh that scene supposed to be her
spk_0
Taking her own life, but I did not get that at all because she she spends most although all of it looking up at the sky
spk_0
um
spk_0
Actually, I thought that was kind of silly a friend of mine who watches this she told me she got she was saying to me
spk_0
And maybe other women in the comments can
spk_0
To help me out here. She said to me like
spk_0
Yeah, it's every if every woman's dream to just say fuck it and go into the woods and just stay there for a while contemplating life
spk_0
I'm like, huh really like yeah, don't don't don't she goes don't boys have like that whole like mentality of where they just want to say
spk_0
Fuck it and go into the woods and just like hunt and fish and you know
spk_0
Just be a man like I
spk_0
Guess I like my AC and not having like these mosquitoes all over my face, but I guess that's a thing some guys like I don't know maybe
spk_0
I like going on road trips I guess like yeah, yeah, sometimes I want to leave my job and just have a vacation like that's just a vacation
spk_0
Yeah, everyone's a vacation, but uh on your favorite character real quick
spk_0
Let me get back to him chase calling uh calling the dragon seeds Mongols
spk_0
My man. Oh, yeah, it's kind of a he's good in insecurity
spk_0
He's good, but he has some good points though
spk_0
He has some good points. What if those dragon seeds want to realize they can you know use the dragons to take over the the kingdoms themselves
spk_0
What if the dragon's true decide to betray raneiro what if the dragon seeds
spk_0
Calls into question his legitimacy as well, and he has a point about that yeah
spk_0
And I saw the I watched the behind the episode or whatever afterwards and Ryan Condole I think explained it a little bit more where like now that
spk_0
Now that like a peasant like a peasant can have a dragon like it calls into question everything because like it's like giving a
spk_0
A peasant a nuclear weapon like now they're now they're like they have power and power is not inherited anymore
spk_0
It's it's something that anybody can have like it's not restricted to nobility so it could really mess up
spk_0
The noble structure and everything and I'm like yeah, I guess it's true. Yeah, that's the whole point
spk_0
Is that if anybody can have a dragon that that was the point of nettles if anybody
spk_0
Even even something that doesn't have any Targaryen ancestry can have a dragon then like
spk_0
It calls into question everything that like this whole feudal structure shouldn't exist so yeah
spk_0
Beaking of nettles real quick. I think it's somewhat confirmed now that nettles is
spk_0
Been combined with rena which I would hope I would hope not because first off we were talking about this before we started recording
spk_0
Jane Aaron is pissed because and someone was explaining this to me and this is true
spk_0
So Jane Aaron's story is that her entire rule has been
spk_0
contested by other
spk_0
House Aaron claimants and she'd had to put down like people after people like constantly trying to challenge her
spk_0
So she is about no nonsense bullshit and when rena first arrives in the veil
spk_0
Jane Aaron's like well
spk_0
You know, I was promised the dragon to defend the veil because the veil is one of the most heavily defended places in the seven kingdoms
spk_0
And it's purely on terrain
spk_0
Right, yeah, it can change its terrain at will. It's like crazy the the whole
spk_0
Castle can like reform and
spk_0
She's
spk_0
But those who don't know what Trace talking about is that the veil the eerie specifically the house Aaron castle in seasons one for
spk_0
seasons one and I think four
spk_0
Of game of thrones it looked vastly different and then it also looks vastly different in season two of house of the dragon which yeah
spk_0
That's true, but Jane Aaron is pissed like she was promised a dragon and rena was like well
spk_0
You technically got dragons you just to specify is what size and Jane's like
spk_0
Fuck you. So Jane sends rena off but not before rena runs off and she's gonna go look for this sheep stealing dragon
spk_0
This was somewhat leaked a couple of months ago by a twitter user who I actually follow and talked to privately every now and then and
spk_0
They told me they didn't mean to like say that rena and nettles are combining because they don't know
spk_0
They just use the word sheep stealing dragon because that's what someone told
spk_0
Them so it's it's pretty I think it's pretty clear
spk_0
Combined because it cuz yeah like when I saw the the burn sheep
spk_0
I was like yeah, this is what they're doing with sheep stealer and the fact that
spk_0
Okay last season if you listen if you listen carefully
spk_0
Damon brings up that there were three wild dragons in addition to
spk_0
Verma Thor and silver silver ring
spk_0
Which is accurate to the books
spk_0
But the wild dragons have become suspiciously absent
spk_0
Besides the one in the veil
spk_0
Like nobody has brought up that cannibal
spk_0
What's the other one
spk_0
Grey ghost grey ghost and sheep stealer
spk_0
Exist on on dragon stone like that's just been removed
spk_0
Even though even though Damon implied their existence
spk_0
Like at the last episode last season
spk_0
They're just gone so and then now we have this wild dragon in the veil that eats sheep and I'm like okay
spk_0
They're this is sheep stealer like they've decided to move that plotline to the veil
spk_0
um
spk_0
Yeah, I think they're gone. I think they're going. We're not gonna see the canon which is funny because George R. Martin himself
spk_0
Complained about this he complained about how his dragons they like to say around like so yeah
spk_0
Did you read that not a blog post like here be dragon yes? Yes, this not a vlog post that contradicts ever like George's like he
spk_0
He because it reminds me of his casually rock um blog post a while ago like maybe like a year or two years ago
spk_0
Mm-hmm where he like gave this like massive massive in-depth
spk_0
Breakdown of casually rock and what its geographies like and and what inspired it in real life
spk_0
And it's obviously like out of to me. I read that and I'm like oh
spk_0
He's doing that because he thought he put so much thought into this and it's never gonna be really
spk_0
Shown or explained in the source material in like the books and the actual books
spk_0
so he's like kind of doing like the
spk_0
the
spk_0
Tolkien kind of thing like the letters of Tolkien where right he's like clearing up the last bit of the lore
spk_0
That's never gonna actually be in the in the in the main source material
spk_0
Um, so he did that with the dragons
spk_0
But and he was like giving all this like in-depth lore of like how the targeting dragons work or whatever and it makes no sense
spk_0
It's like they he the one thing he's like they love to stay near volcanoes
spk_0
Um, and then that they don't roam like they just they don't roam and
spk_0
That is totally contradicted by his own writings and then also the show now where there's a wild dragon in the veil
spk_0
where I don't think there's any
spk_0
volcanic activity
spk_0
I don't think we're shown anything like obviously something has to be creating the mountains
spk_0
But I don't think there's any with it's known to be a volcanic at all like I think only dragon stone and
spk_0
Valeria are really the volcanic areas and in all of his world
spk_0
So it's a little weird, but George also contradicted himself in in his own work silver wing
spk_0
in in uh fire and blood we know that silver wing
spk_0
Yeah, cuz he silver wing goes to the to red lake exactly so
spk_0
Which is the opposite of a volcano carrier
spk_0
Exactly volcano crater, but it would be dormant so but so so George is out of his fucking mind and you know
spk_0
But some people are saying this was George trying to preemptively warn us about some of the plotlines this season
spk_0
I keep seeing people someone tweeted at my someone replied to my tweet right now about how
spk_0
um
spk_0
George was trying to warn us about this season when he said he wouldn't be joining the season three writing room
spk_0
That only dick might do that means nothing that is anything that is mean that like that means he's working on wild cards
spk_0
Did you know that there was like a wild cards announcement that he made but it was only on Facebook?
spk_0
I didn't see it anywhere else
spk_0
Because it's he's only present it's presented by him. He didn't even do it edited in this
spk_0
I don't think that like he was like dissing the show or anything like that
spk_0
Um he did diss the show with the the the sigil like that's the one thing he's complaining about but I don't think he's dissing the show
spk_0
I don't think I don't think George. I don't think the I don't think George hasn't you know what now? I don't know because
spk_0
What we know for I don't want to get into the episode eight leaks bullshit and I won't but I'll just say this
spk_0
I wish I knew George's opinions on the matter regarding the decisions they're making especially with nettles
spk_0
George put nettles in there for a reason and you and press and have touched on this at nausea
spk_0
I mean you just talked about it like 10 minutes ago of why nettles is important
spk_0
So potential this is why I'm not sure if they are
spk_0
blending in nettles with rena so it's still a possibility
spk_0
That we may get in season three
spk_0
nettles coming in but
spk_0
Yeah like like in order for nettles to come in like I feel like rena would have to
spk_0
To die and then like this random character comes in and steals her
spk_0
Her plot line because right now in this episode they hinted that that rena is going into the in to hunt down
spk_0
The wild dragon because her whole thing her whole thing this whole entire season has been that she feels
spk_0
Inadequate because she she's not a dragonwriter everybody else around her all her sisters a dragonwriter her cousins are dragonwriters
spk_0
And she feels kind of useless and she had that scene with rena
spk_0
And her sister where she's like I'm I'm she's sending me away because I don't have a dragon
spk_0
I'm the least important one of you and
spk_0
But then again, what are you trying to say with that because I thought I thought what they were trying to do with her
spk_0
Character is that she doesn't need a dragon to be useful like that was her whole thing
spk_0
She was taking care of rena as children and keeping them safe in Essos like that's a super important task
spk_0
Um, but now I feel like they're gonna give her a dragon so kind of undoes that
spk_0
That um
spk_0
Character arc or development or whatever words like no actually she got a dragon so she doesn't need to feel insecure anymore about it
spk_0
It's like it's like somebody feeling ugly and
spk_0
There's a plot line of them trying to be okay with them being ugly and that looks aren't aren't everything and then it's resolved by them getting a plastic surgery and becoming beautiful
spk_0
Like it is like what when you trying to say there um, so I don't know
spk_0
I guess I'll I should wait until her plot lines ended to judge it
spk_0
But yeah, it does it does not seem like sheep stealers gonna be in the show
spk_0
Her nettles is gonna be in the show looks like sneep sheep stealer will be in the show, but without nettles
spk_0
We'll we'll have to see
spk_0
fellow youtuber dragon demands
spk_0
Swore up and down he found the metals actress and the actress herself replied to his comment on Twitter saying
spk_0
Oh, no, that's not gonna happen. Sorry. I'm not I'm not in the franchise. I'm sorry about that and she
spk_0
She she replied is kind of like okay. I mean at least at least there it is there it is but um
spk_0
No, so what else happened in this episode? We had the dragon seeds showing up the red sewing. Yeah, this is a big legacy episode
spk_0
whoa Rainier brought all of these people to have them killed and and she almost had
spk_0
Ulf and Hugh Hammer killed as well because
spk_0
um
spk_0
Back me up on something in my review
spk_0
My episode seven review I mentioned how in the source material reading fire and blood the red sewing felt like it was mortal combat
spk_0
Did you ever watch mortal combat the the first movie from the 90s?
spk_0
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw a little clip of that recently so I wonder if it's because I mentioned it
spk_0
um
spk_0
In the first mortal combat film remember how when they get to the island and then they're just kind of walking around until a ninja finds them and they fight to the death
spk_0
Yeah, that's kind of what I read
spk_0
I that's kind of what I took away from the red sewing in the source material
spk_0
Was that people went to the island and they were allowed to go to the dragon stone where they all are
spk_0
And they're allowed to try to do like some kind of Pokemon safaris don't like thing where they go to attempt to claim the dragon
spk_0
Because why the fuck would you have a dragon?
spk_0
voluntary yes, and and not only that Rainier has made her squires some of her knights all attempted to do so not just the dragon seeds
spk_0
Yeah, yeah, and and and and it wasn't like this thing where they had like this weird orientation and then they were shoved into
spk_0
A room all 50 of them all together for some reason to to go one by one and like a line
spk_0
um
spk_0
To try like like in the books I interpret it that like it was like
spk_0
anybody show up and you can you go into the cave whenever you want to where we're not gonna push you in and you can go at anytime you want
spk_0
Like it was the door the doors are open and we'll let anybody in so long as
spk_0
and and then you you it's it's your choice you're risking your life
spk_0
It's your choice and this they I really did not like the scene where
spk_0
They had all the dragon rider or all the dragon seeds
spk_0
And they forced them
spk_0
Into that into the open cave room and all 50 of them were standing in a line
spk_0
And we're gonna dip one by one walk up to
spk_0
Vermithor I thought that was so stupid. I was like why why why why not have them do it like
spk_0
Separately like why have all of them in the room just so we can have like the dragon freak out and shoot at them and stuff
spk_0
I thought the dragon freak out potentially wound rain era as well because she's there overlooking the whole situation
spk_0
She's overlooking it. I thought it was like chaotic and and almost horror-esque with the dragons like hunting the people and eating them
spk_0
burning them like that was cool, but like when you think about it from a logistical standpoint
spk_0
That's fucking stupid man. That's so dumb. Yeah, I thought it was I thought it was contrived for like the sake of having a cool set piece
spk_0
Have a lot of a lot of extras get killed and stuff because I would have rather had it the way that because I thought of like Damon seen
spk_0
last season where he meets Vermithor and
spk_0
And it's and he's in like the complete dark. He's like goes deep deep to underground to where the dragons are
spk_0
Are hanging out and he has his torch and it's just him
spk_0
Solowing the dragon having a conversation with it and it's intimidating. It's completely dark and
spk_0
And yeah, I like that more and it makes more sense to have that
spk_0
We're like because the thing is when you have like 50 people and animals gonna get freaked out like a horse is gonna get freaked out
spk_0
And so like a dragon will be freaked out
spk_0
So like I don't know why you would have like tons of them all at once
spk_0
Like it was it was contrived just for the body count like I you can just tell like they just wanted to hide body count this episode
spk_0
So we're gonna do something that doesn't make any sense. So I don't know
spk_0
You're you're not wrong. The scene itself is cool
spk_0
The scene itself was cool
spk_0
But like did you get that feeling as well reading the source material that it was kind of like
spk_0
Mortal Kombat or Pokemon safari zone where people would arrive on the island
spk_0
There would be a loud to set foot on the island and go out and try to tame the dragons like did you get that feeling too?
spk_0
Yeah, okay, I got the feeling too that it was like the dragons are in a cave and
spk_0
You're allowed to go in the cave and like anybody's allowed to show up at any time and you're allowed to go in the cave and face the dragon whenever you want to
spk_0
Yeah, like like a Mortal Kombat Pokemon situation. It wasn't like
spk_0
We're gonna we're gonna give you this orientation where Rainier gives a speech and then you're like a class like is this felt like a like a
spk_0
Classroom situation. I don't know. It was kind of weird. Yeah
spk_0
I want to touch on something we were discussing about episode six
spk_0
I want to just I want to touch on it here. Missaria. I'm so deathly afraid that Missaria is one of those
spk_0
Fuck the fuck the book fuck the fuck the elites and and
spk_0
Freedom to the proletariat
spk_0
types of character where she is
spk_0
purposely leading Rainier down the path of destruction
spk_0
Because she wants to bring down the patriarchy or the system and and uplift the small folk because remember
spk_0
That was her whole plotline in season one was she was dealing with auto towards the end
spk_0
Because she wanted the small folk to have more more protection more more safety more freedoms from the elites doing bad stuff to them
spk_0
Like Aegon what's right? So
spk_0
I'm so afraid
spk_0
That they're gonna try to make her some Machiavellian style strategist who is just lying and bullshiting Rainier at the entire time
spk_0
So she could end the Targaryen dynasty and their rule and chokehold over the country and somewhat try to uplift the small folk because that would be so fucking stupid
spk_0
I would think that's stupid to yeah, I hope that's not the case because
spk_0
Because remember when whenever my serious talks to
spk_0
Rainier she almost never criticizes her she almost just like fluff her up a little bit like you did something that no one ever thought possible
spk_0
And then in the beginning of the episode they have a conversation where where Rainier is like let's raise an army of bastards. It's like
spk_0
okay
spk_0
Okay, but careful
spk_0
Careful, you know, you could go bad very quickly and careful
spk_0
Uh and the episode ends with um
spk_0
Probably one of the coolest scenes in the entire franchise
spk_0
Vega who's been this looming shadow over Rainier's rule and anything she can do
spk_0
Flying to dragon stone
spk_0
Being lured by Ulf and silver wing which by the way silver ring amazing design. I loved it. I like the design
spk_0
Yeah, like vermouth or is designed to oh all of them look this this the CG is great. I don't know. They're all look unique
spk_0
I love that and um and oh we saw like the eggs like silver ring had eggs
spk_0
Remember remember he stepped on them. Oh, yeah, yeah, that's kind of cool. I guess I like it like we got a little bit of like
spk_0
I don't know that that silver wing is like an egg layer like maybe they maybe they already talked about but yeah
spk_0
Yeah, there's the they lore vague are and then aiman chickens out. He's like I'm getting out of here
spk_0
To be fair. I think aiman could probably fuck them up
spk_0
I'll tell you why because yeah those guys
spk_0
Those guys are are are newly seasoned dragon writers
spk_0
I think you can call them dragon writers. They're more like dragon passengers because
spk_0
They don't know like like like Rainies had been flying her
spk_0
Rainies and Damon have been flying their dragons for decades
spk_0
These guys have been doing it for five minutes. I think a seasoned dragon writer could probably take out three unseason dragon writers
spk_0
I understand that like the more the merrier and overwhelming him with force and they probably would defeat him
spk_0
But I think he'd wipe them out. I think he'd wipe most of them out
spk_0
I feel like the only way they the three of them could fuck up or the four of them could fuck up aiman is if they got a lucky shot on him
spk_0
Skillwise, I think he still wins every time even against all three
spk_0
Yeah, they just need to grab a grab him on the saddle like just eat him like somebody distracts the dragon from the front
spk_0
And somebody comes up from behind you to eat a eaten whole
spk_0
Or someone needs to sacrifice their dragon while vega is chomping on that neck
spk_0
Someone needs to take out a sword jump over aiman and like shove the sword through his eye
spk_0
Hopefully that won't happen. We'll see what we'll see what happens
spk_0
But no that final see right that like
spk_0
It's unclear like how because remember remember okay rain you're a confronts Adam at the beginning of the episode
spk_0
And she's like can you follow me to to dragon stone? He's like yeah, I think so and it's like he literally just became a dragon writer like
spk_0
Like five minutes ago
spk_0
And now he can he's able to steer it that much
spk_0
Which which makes me wonder like I wish they would go into more about the
spk_0
How the psychic bond works and like it's controlling a dragon's not really
spk_0
It's kind of like a mix of writing a horse and also like bonding with it on a psychic level
spk_0
To like get it to do whatever you want yeah, no that final scene where rain era and all the dragons come together
spk_0
And they all roar as one that was sick. I fucking love that that was so good and it's just you know
spk_0
This I liked episode seven. I thought episode six was fine. You know, I have my issues here and there
spk_0
But overall I feel like the season has been consistently pretty good
spk_0
I've had my issues here and there and I feel like everyone else has the blood and cheese stuff was not done well
spk_0
Rear in allocent meeting
spk_0
They're they're meeting in episode three that was I have to had I didn't like that
spk_0
Damon episode six I feel like it went on a little one episode too long
spk_0
Some of the pacing stuff some characters really felt like they needed more than five minutes of screen time
spk_0
Raina Alan
spk_0
You know all these people
spk_0
But for the most part I've been enjoying myself. I'm assuming you have as well
spk_0
Yeah, I've been enjoying myself too. I think towards the very very into this season. I felt like
spk_0
Things were taking in a little too long like the paint there's pacing problems where
spk_0
Like Damon kind of sat on his ass for a couple episodes and and not
spk_0
And it was felt a little redundant like him having vision after vision like okay, okay
spk_0
um and
spk_0
Yeah, like that I think that the the drag and seed thing taking like
spk_0
Three episodes because it was the end of episode five
spk_0
Six and then seven like I think that didn't need to take as long like I don't know like maybe it just may be an impatient
spk_0
Where I want the story to get further further along because I was wondering how this season's gonna end like if we're gonna end with
spk_0
The battle the golet or or something like that. What was gonna be our epic final episode battle and
spk_0
And I was a little disappointed where it doesn't seem like we're gonna have one right? It's gonna be pushed to next season probably
spk_0
Yeah, oh, I don't know. It's a little fine. I guess I mean we all are on some level because fuck man
spk_0
And I don't and look I think in regards to the pacing I feel is I blame HBO for this because me in person
spk_0
I've discussed this ad nauseam and you guys are gonna hear it again
spk_0
HBO has
spk_0
Nothing in their lineup that can top game of thrones house of the dragon and even you for it. You watch you for you?
spk_0
I did I did but then it's been like it's been gone for like four years. How long is you for you?
spk_0
Not I have I have no idea that's the thing is the
spk_0
The like you for you it was Netflix's big like one of their like next to game of thrones
spk_0
It was their big like flagship TV series that everybody was watching because I know that like just on Twitter like everybody would do watching
spk_0
Yeah, it's the fourth most watched series an HBO behind game of thrones last of us in house of the dragon
spk_0
So it was like they're the big four their big three like series and
spk_0
And um, yeah, it was just it was it had such a weirdy regular upload schedule
spk_0
For its seasons because it was like okay 2019 for season
spk_0
2021
spk_0
Next season so it's like a year a little bit over a year because it's January 2021
spk_0
So it's a little bit over a year to next season and then it's February 2022
spk_0
So which is like another year and then
spk_0
Season three has just been in limbo since
spk_0
2022 like one two three four like it's gonna be five like uh like
spk_0
One two three four five four five years before it comes out because I don't even know if it's gonna come out next year
spk_0
um, so it's like weird and it was all it's I think it's a mix of like the actors. They're they're difficult getting the actors back
spk_0
um, I think there was maybe some like controversy with some of the behind the scenes crew or something like that
spk_0
um, but it's like really weird like with euphoria where euphoria was like
spk_0
HBO's big thing and then like
spk_0
It petered out and has disappeared and I think it's kind of like culturally irrelevant by
spk_0
Four years from now like because just nothing they haven't made any more seasons. It's very bizarre
spk_0
I don't know. I don't get it um, that's yeah, yeah, anyways, that's fucking
spk_0
That's a weird it's weird. It's weird to have
spk_0
A a a four-year gap like I'm being bad with my math here one two three four four at the very least four year gap between seasons because it's just like all the
spk_0
inertia that you were you had is is dissipating and then for euphoria, which is like a high school drama
spk_0
You're having these these actors that were in their
spk_0
early 20s early to mid 20s when it started when they're playing high schoolers now they're gonna be like in like their
spk_0
Late 20s or 30s like by the time like the the next season so it's and I think like they've decided that they're not even gonna
spk_0
Have it be a high school drama anymore if they have a season three
spk_0
It's gonna be them post high school, which it's weird
spk_0
They had all that drama all that a nurse off focused in their high school drama and then now they're gonna be
spk_0
Adults like
spk_0
Not half the show is her naked in someone's vlogger. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. You four years not a not a perfect show
spk_0
Um, I mean do we really need to wait that long to fuck Sydney Swaney? I
spk_0
Right like I don't I don't know why like this high school drama show
spk_0
I don't know why it was so difficult to get a third season for it and they're apparently they're still doing a third season
spk_0
But it's just it's in production hell right now
spk_0
um
spk_0
And yeah, and and I don't know considering how the last season ended which it was just like on crazy territory like I don't I don't know
spk_0
You did a good thing that they're just like yep. They're gonna be grown up now. I don't know
spk_0
Well, all their classic shows that that really brought a crowd berry
spk_0
Succession euphoria like that's kind of all done. I don't think I I personally think like they're in development hell with season three
spk_0
They say they want to go down, but showrunner and zendaya both are having like some kind of beef
spk_0
The showrunner is upset that zendaya
spk_0
Went off to do her own movie franchise dune which let's be honest
spk_0
I think a lot of hunters and stuff. Yeah, I think all of the movies she's done have easily made over a hundred million dollars
spk_0
So and the girls got to work and she wants to work
spk_0
So yeah, and I think she's upset with him because he went off to do the idol which fucking bombed everybody hated it
spk_0
It was like the weekends weird fanfic to fuck Johnny Depp's daughter like H.B. Which doesn't have anything right now and anytime they take a damn
spk_0
I'm I looked it up. I looked at filming for euphoria season three is scheduled to begin January 2025
spk_0
So she's gonna be another year after that. It might be fucking five years
spk_0
Like another season that is insane. Oh my god, which is weird because crazy if they did less episodes
spk_0
I guess they could they could fix this because Duncan egg believe it or not is feeling right now
spk_0
I may plan on an early next year release. So
spk_0
Duncan egg had maybe like is gonna have maybe seven eight months
spk_0
In between starting production and then ending it and releasing it. So it's possible euphoria could still
spk_0
release in 2025, but fuck man. Does anyone care at this point?
spk_0
I don't this that's the thing is I don't think people care. It's been so long and they're not they're in like the
spk_0
The problem is that all the
spk_0
Several actors actresses are not returning
spk_0
Like that's just been decided right and it's gonna it's apparently gonna focus on
spk_0
Zindaya's like say I don't even remember her character's name because it's been so freaking like rule like post
spk_0
Roo her post it's gonna be post college her
spk_0
Post high school her traveling around the world. So you're not even gonna have any of the
spk_0
Normal characters are at least not regularly. So like all the drama that's been built up over the years with all the other
spk_0
Supporting cast is just gone like it's just weird
spk_0
I don't know like all the inertia all like the the buildup is just gone. It's very strange. I don't know why you would do this
spk_0
Yeah, it's probably like a perfect one
spk_0
But yeah, it's weird where euphoria really was like the Game of Thrones have that time of that brief gap
spk_0
It was Game of Thrones for fucking Gen Zers. That's what's for teenagers
spk_0
For zoomers and and they just dropped the ball like they like that's just what happened
spk_0
They just straight up dropped the ball and and it's in it's gone now and now it's now game with now now HBO is back to
spk_0
House of the dragon dunk of it dunk connect. I am worried. I am worried that Game of Thrones is gonna turn it like it's gonna turn
spk_0
HBO is gonna turn Game of Thrones into what Disney has turned into Star Wars like I'm really afraid that we're gonna like
spk_0
Have just like way too much Game of Thrones. I want to I want to have a conversation with you so bad about like the Game of Thrones
spk_0
Cinematic Universe and that how that's them trying to do that as a detriment because that would involve us talking about the episode
spk_0
Eight leaks and we're not gonna do that. I don't want to do that yet
spk_0
This is a conversation I would love to have with you and Preston
spk_0
Going forward because and I want to say this to you right now. I'll type this to you because I don't want to spoil the audience and you know
spk_0
Look on discursors fucking this is this is what I'm afraid of
spk_0
See that
spk_0
Hold on hold on
spk_0
Oh, hold on I'm afraid they're gonna fucking like shove that in somehow to every fucking
spk_0
Prequel and spin off they ever do and I hate that so much. I just let it be its own thing. We can have this conversation
spk_0
With Preston on when we discuss the entire finals with the entire season two, but that's what I'm afraid of
spk_0
I am very afraid of that as well. Yeah, because it doesn't I don't know like I
spk_0
I didn't it doesn't need to be and I think it actually takes away from it because like why why does everything need to be linked together
spk_0
um and yeah
spk_0
I'm just yeah, yeah, like how do your own thing because I know people are gonna get on your dick for this
spk_0
And I and let me defend you off the bat right now
spk_0
Obviously, it's a prequel. It's obviously it's linked
spk_0
But at the same time it can still be its own story and be phenomenal
spk_0
You don't need to like link it back to every little thing. It's far enough back in the past
spk_0
To where it doesn't need to be like closely linked like that
spk_0
well
spk_0
and also also
spk_0
The so it's a prequel
spk_0
But the seek that vote. It's a prequel too. How it ended is terrible like why why would you want it to be linked to the ending of it of the like the ending that is
spk_0
universally
spk_0
hated like it is like the ending of Game of Thrones
spk_0
is literally considered one of the worst endings in
spk_0
in TV history and whatever whatever you want to say in fantasy history in TV series history whatever franchise history
spk_0
franchise history it's considered one of the worst endings period of all time yeah where we're we're I don't think any fans liked it no fans except
spk_0
except kitt Harrington
spk_0
Actually, you know what let me let me defend them because I think the actress for Marjorie Tyrell I forget her name
spk_0
She even came out and said uh
spk_0
She even came out and they were doing an interview with her
spk_0
I think she was at some kind of college and they were doing an interview with her and someone asked her about season 8
spk_0
She goes yeah, I don't think it was that good and I can say that because they don't pay me anymore
spk_0
So I think I feel as though the actors and actresses have to have
spk_0
Someone of a cooked opinion on this because you know like it's in maybe it's in their contract for after a couple of years
spk_0
Don't badmouth the show like wait a little bit. So I think that's what it is
spk_0
But that that's my concern. We can we can talk about that when we go and I get it look Preston
spk_0
I get it to where where actors want
spk_0
Rolls and if you if you slag off
spk_0
producer or writer or something like that
spk_0
They're gonna get into the network to the the the the the the bolt they're gonna blacklist you and remember that
spk_0
That's why you don't criticize
spk_0
They can remember the things that you work on most of the time
spk_0
Even when it is considered one of the worst things ever produced
spk_0
It's like a telltale game. They're gonna remember that. Yeah, it's true. This trail. They're gonna remember that um
spk_0
Yeah, so like I don't know we we'll talk about it later, but like yeah like
spk_0
Your prequel, but you're prequel to a series that has one of the most infamous endings that everybody hated
spk_0
Why do you want to keep reminding me writing people about that engine?
spk_0
I mean
spk_0
I don't want you to watch my my leaked season eight uh my leaked episode a video that I put out a couple days ago
spk_0
That's literally that's literally what I just said. I literally said the same thing you just said
spk_0
110% they're not wrong
spk_0
Stop doing that because you mother fuckers are going to ruin the legacy of it
spk_0
But you know what that's that's beyond the point
spk_0
But yeah, like I was saying originally HBO has nothing they have this
spk_0
We got penguin coming up. I don't know if you saw the Batman. I liked it, but penguin. Yeah, Batman's good really
spk_0
I don't know yeah, it has to be good like that's a thing is like
spk_0
I don't know I probably I'm not gonna watch it unless I hear that it's like really really good like I just not
spk_0
I'll check it out, but uh
spk_0
Did you see they changed the name of the dune prequel?
spk_0
Oh
spk_0
What's it called now? It was before doing sisterhood now. It's like dune prophecy
spk_0
They changed the sisterhood because they didn't want like they don't want to hide the people from making it woke
spk_0
Yeah, like woke sisterhood lesbian witches you know what it's probably related to that stupid
spk_0
Accolate the backlash of the athlete accolate like it's probably not
spk_0
You know what I don't blame them for changing it because look I get it
spk_0
You don't want the smoke from the fucking online mob and it doesn't cost you anything to change it like like I think one was the one of the main things is
spk_0
Sisterhood how many words of sisterhood was that like nine words like I think you even say no it's uh ten words
spk_0
I think you save on printing a by like changing it from like ten words
spk_0
To lay you know like the miss it's the mr. Plinket
spk_0
Yeah, I was just thinking that it's like they
spk_0
By change it to save on ink pretty much pretty fucking much. So
spk_0
Fuck it like they have nothing. This is what they have it's Game of Thrones hundred years baby
spk_0
Hundred years forever Game of Thrones. Oh God
spk_0
Before I end this podcast. I just want to just say I still want that shot. It's no sequel series. I still do
spk_0
I still do I
spk_0
I do too. I part of me does as well because like why not like why not like
spk_0
Why not like because because that's the thing is the Indian of Game of Thrones is so bad
spk_0
So it's like why not explore the ending more to at least because you might be able to salvage it
spk_0
You might be able to you might be able to show like are you
spk_0
Or maybe not are you but like maybe John Northman wall or something doing some stuff
spk_0
Remember my idea they were if they do this. They're stealing my idea
spk_0
Remember my ideas him going to Essos to like China or some shit ancient China ET
spk_0
And he's gonna he has to stop another white walker threat
spk_0
But they're like the lava white walkers. You find a beautiful a beautiful Yitish
spk_0
Babe he's like oh you remind me so much of eGrant. I don't want it
spk_0
There's there's we can get the sequel series and there's there's no there's no going down from here
spk_0
Because it's all the way down with fucking diners or bones. It's all the way up there. It's all the way up
spk_0
Carmin. Carmin. He goes to ET and you know who he finds
spk_0
He finds young Griff he finds

spk_0
Ariane Martell like he sees everyone's there. Yeah, fuck it. Look at everyone's a Victorians there. They're all Victorians, but
spk_0

spk_0
Yes, cuz because Victor remember Victorian is is canon to the to the show because he is brought up by
spk_0
Tyrion at one point and like the first season. Oh, yeah
