42: Still Smug Book Talk: "The Dragon and the Wolf" (S7E7)

This week on Game of Microphones Still Smug Book Talk, Ser Duncan and Obsidian Crow cover the Season 7 Finale "The Dragon and the Wolf". Together we'll experience the storied history of the Dragonpit and the brutal attack that left the the structure in the destroyed state in which we find it in the finale, and compare "the Night King" of the tv show's to "Night's King" of the books. We explore the different ways that Jaime eventually left Cersei in the show vs the books but note a significant weather change that occurs similarly in both cases. We talk Cleganebowl and explore The Hound's driving motivation in life: to brutally murder his older brother. We discover similarities between the deaths of Littlefinger and the maegi Mirri Maz Duur, revel in the influence that Ned Stark is still having on our characters, and witness a vision of Rhaegar Targaryen that both explains the similar look of him and his younger brother Viserys, and gives us some insight into the significance that Rhaegar places on Jon's birth name, Aegon Targaryen. All this and more in this week's Still Smug Book Talk.   Please *support Game of Microphones for free* by trying Audible free for a month and getting a free audiobook at audibletrial.com/GoM  It helps a lot and you don't even have to spend a penny!
