Episode 2 - The Lannisters: Shitting gold, paying debts and worshipping Machiavelli

As the Lannisters were the richest family of Westeros and ultimately the power behind the throne, we will discuss the significance of economy in the medieval world and what power it held as opposed to the modern day. We will talk about the incestuous relationship of Cersei and Jaime comparing them to Lucrezia and Cesare Borgia. We will talk about the role of Tywin Lannister, comparing his own thinking and actions with that of Machiavelli.
