*Bonus* Game of Thrones Game Theory
from Fascinating Nouns
Popularized during the Cold War, Game Theory was developed to predict how rational people would act under various situations. For example, how opposing governments would respond to a tactical nuclear strike. Set against an epic struggle between several families vying for absolute power, Game of Thrones is the perfect backdrop to illustrate how Game Theory would play out. In this bonus episode, we discuss Tywin Lannister's lust for power, how "tit for tat" is a technical term, and the cost benefit analysis of snitching.
