Episode 83: A CLASH OF KINGS, DAVOS I: "The Stuff of Heroes, Part 2" ft. Frank B

Hello and welcome back to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week! In this episode, we are joined once more by our own High Inquisitor Frank B as the onion knight gives the freshly crowned Stannis Baratheon some sensible advice, only to get a Shakespeare monologue for his trouble.

This week, we:

- Break down Stannis' public letter declaring himself the rightful king

- Analyze both the simplicity *and* complexity of the Stannis-Davos dynamic

- Dig into the layers of meaning contained in Stannis' brief mention of his parents' deaths

- Expose and then set fire to Stannis' heart with the Proudwing backstory

- Discuss whether Stannis and Davos will ever meet again in the books (they won't)

Next week: Another brand new POV walks smugly and confidently into a series of rakes in ACOK, Theon I!
