Episode 5: A GAME OF THRONES, EDDARD I: ”This is Her Place”

Welcome to the Not A Cast ... podcast. Today, PoorQuentyn and BryndenBFish discuss our first POV chapter from the main character of Game of Thrones: Eddard Stark. Join with us as we discuss:

• Fire and Blood, Volume One and what we're looking forward to in that book
• Emmett's next essay in his Theon ADWD essay series: Remember your name, Part 2: Always Smiling
• Ned Stark, living in the horror of his past
• Symbolism through statues: how Martin communicates the over-arching theme that Ned is going in the wrong direction with the crypts
• Our likes and dislikes
• Unpacking the convoluted story behind Sweetrobin Arryn's fostering
• Jeff tries to bait Emmett into another theory discussion with ... surprising results

We have fun. You have fun. We all have fun.
