The Flagship that is the ASOIAF re-read sails on into episode 29, like Davos into Blackwater Bay, and one can only hope that there isn’t any wildfire or Imp to use it.

Join hosts Patrick the Tall; MunroeJock/Jock; Nadia; Shadowbaby/Hannah; and (later) Nymeria/Marie as they discuss Sansa 5, Davos 3 and Tyrion 13 from A Clash of Kings.

The podcast is dark and full of spoilers for all published works in ASOIAF.

The aftershow begins at 2 hr 19 minutes.

The artwork is from the A Podcast Of Ice and Fire drawing project on Deviantart, and is Sansa 5. The music extracts are by Alpine Universe and is available to purchase on iTunes

For listeners playing along at home, the next episode will cover the end half of the Battle of the Blackwater Bay, hosted by Casey, and will cover Sansa 6, Tyrion 14 and Sansa 7.

VoK 337: The Medieval Vagina aka The Great Linear ASOIAF ReRead (Part 28)

Posted on October 6, 2016 by bina007 | 3 comments

The juggernaut that is the ASOIAF re-read rolls on into episode 28, where we see the consequences of Dany laying waste to the House of the Undying and the build-up to the Battle of the Blackwater Bay. We’ve also had the Battle of the Red Fork happen off screen.

Join hosts Bina007; Blue Eyed Queen/Casey; Nadia; Scilens/Tanja; Shadowbaby/Hannah; and (briefly) Varley/Matt as they discuss Tyrion 11, Dany 5, Tyrion 12 and Sansa 4 from A Clash of Kings.

This brings us to the end of August 299 – a month in which we saw the fall of Winterfell, the fall of Storms End, the fall of Harrenhall, the Battle of the Red Fork, The House of the Undying, Jon’s 16th birthday and Robb shagging Jeyne Westerling offstage!

The podcast is dark and full of spoilers for all published works in ASOIAF.

The aftershow begins at 1 hr 32 minutes.

The artwork is from the A Podcast Of Ice and Fire drawing project on Deviantart, and is Tyrion 12 drawn by Jesicka309. The music extracts are by Alpine Universe and Urge Overkill and are available to purchase on iTunes.

For listeners playing along at home, the next two episodes will cover the Battle of the Blackwater Bay. In the first, hosted by Ser Patrick the Tall, we will cover Sansa 5, Davos 3, and Tyrion 13. The second episode, hosted by Casey, will cover Sansa 6, Tyrion 14 and Sansa 7.

Posted on July 27, 2016 by dagosrivers | Leave a comment

Beware of Spoilers, The following podcast discusses spoilers for all published (and unpublished) books in A Song of Ice and Fire, and all aired episodes of Game of Thrones

Before all show watchers agonise over what will befall our favourite characters in Season 7, WolfCast and KrakenCast join forces and look back to Season 6 and test out their Game of Thrones trivia in “A Game Show of Thrones”: The cruelest Game Show in Media!

Glen (Dagos_Rivers) hosts and quizzes the four contestants (Duncan (Valkyrist), Jed (Jed o’white Hart), Claire (DarkSister24) and Hannah (Shadow_ baby)) over characters, obscure random facts, and comparing characters to Disney characters. Glen is also evil to the non-brits by asking a lot of questions about popular british shows; evil to non-Americans by asking questions about the HBO schedule and deducts as high as 500 points (Dragons) per player for a wrong answer.

Also featured:
-(Very brief) Season 6 reviews and highlights.
-Hannah gets very tipsy (or maybe that was left on the cutting room floor…)
-Strategies of devising multiple choice questions.
-Round 1: Lightning round
-Round 2: Individual Multiple Choice
-Round 3: Show Canon Jeopardy (The Generous but not too generous Round)
-Round 4: The Evil Round (Where the players lose everything!)

Running Time: 01:03:06
