It's (not) a new podcast! Therefore, a great big welcome back to our dearest friend of the podcast, Lo the Lynx, who is also joined by our newest friend, Virginie! Be sure to check out their podcast, Ragman's Harbour. (Get it? Silent Sisters? Ragman's Harbour? We think we're funny.)
In this episode, we take a look at Rhaenyra and Alicent's last-ditch effort to broker a peace deal through the lens of gender studies. Is the show being a little too simplistic and gender essentialist when it comes to who wants war and who wants peace? Our guests break it down for us. Then we deep dive into a very haunted Daemon's weirwood dream, where dreams, magic, and reality seem to blur together. And what's eating Daemon and Ser Criston Cole? Could it be actual guilt for respectively earning their lady love's displeasure? Things aren't going so well in the Green's camp, with Aegon ascending his drinking buddies to the King's Guard, Larys Strong ingratiating himself to the king, and Aemond losing his one safe space to be vulnerable. Finally, we turn our attention to Baela, Helaena, and Rhaena. One experiences the thrill of helping the war effort on dragonback, the other processes the death of her child, and the last is entrusted with safeguarding the youngest of Rhaenyra's children.
