Arya Sansa Bran

Beware of Spoilers, The following podcast discusses A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons in detail.

Dagos_Rivers is joined by forlorn APOIAF forum addicts Bina007, Alias and fortytwo to continue the discussion of A Feast for Crows and A Dance With Dragons aka FeastDance, that began in VOK episode 4. The discussion delves into the short yet sweet journey and training of Sansa, Bran and Arya Stark. At the end of the show, we discuss plans for Part 3 of the discussion which will be titled ‘All Roads Lead to Essos’.

Observations made during the discussion:

-George R.R. Martin’s hate for musicians (Due to unrequited love of a musician)
-Alias’s Alternative theory to ‘Promise me, Ned’
-Faceless men are like the A-Team
-Bran chilling in a tree is akin to Rod Taylor in The Time Machine

VoK 8: The Lottery (by Shirley Jackson)


Dagos_Rivers is joined by Bina007 and Alias to discuss “The Lottery”, a short story by Shirley Jackson.

During the discussion, the three hosts analyse the story to death and can’t help but make the following observations:

– Mr. Graves and Mr. Summers secret relationship?
– The Hunger Games Reaping chapters <= The Lottery.
– Bill Clinton is our choice actor for Mr. Summers in M. Night Shyamalan’s adaptation.
– All of the character names have a purpose.
– We all follow parts of a tradition – even Cabinet Ministers.
– The Wicker Man stars ridiculously fit Scottish women.
– At 52:35, our first ‘Creaking Door’ moment.
