Episode 38: Game of Thrones (with special guests)

A Song of Ice and Fire. Special guests Sarah Cullen, Jeremy Foster, Katy Roose, Phoebe Shum and Rewa Worley join Jeremy Downing and William Chen to discuss the HBO television series Game of Thrones. We start by focusing on whether people were satisfied or dissatisfied by the series finale and unpacking why. We then move into discussing specific character arcs, starting with a general discussion of Daenerys Targaryen and whether the creators succeeded with her arc or it was a fail. We then present our favourite character arcs, starting with Sansa Stark, then moving through to Podrick Payne, Arya Stark, Joffrey Baratheon, Samwell Tarly, Jon Stark, Brienne of Tarth, Jaime Lannister, Theon Greyjoy, with a quick dig at Euron Greyjoy, finishing with a discussion about Davos Seaworth. We end by quickly going through our biggest shock or win moments, starting with Jon killing Daenerys, the death of Lady Mormont, Jon parrying the white walker's sword attack at Hardhome, Bron shooting the fire arrow into the ship of wildfire in Blackwater Bay, Cersei destroying the Sept of Baelor, the battle between Oberyn Martell and The Mountain, the death of Catelyn Stark, the fight between Brienne and The Hound, and a special shout out to Arya killing all of the Freys.
