GoM 50: "The Pointy End" (GoT S1E8 Rewatch)

This week on Game of Microphones Series Rewatch join Duncan and newcomer Wendy Ott Eppers in discussing Season 1 Episode 8, “The Pointy End”. This is what it sounds like when Robb Stark rides on his enemies. The banners are called and war is brewing. We discuss the ramifications of Ned being taken captive, the multitude of occurrences of badassery in this episode, self sacrifices, and saying goodbye to Syrio. Parallels between Jaime and Varys are noticed, and we see our first example of Tyrion’s talent in diplomacy. So much to discuss in this significant episode!
