The episode of the numbers 2.


Picking up where they left off in the last recording, and after seeing this episode's runtime and understanding why this is a two-parter, Akash and LittleWolfBird delve deeper into the propoganda of House of the Dragon S2E2 and tie ideas back to other well known media including Lord of the Rings 3 - The Return of the King, and the original A Song of Ice and Fire books, as well as the other show Game of Thrones. We agree that if Rhaenyra had sent out a PR campaign against Aemmond after Luke's death, that Otto and the Green's slander would not be as successful; really if she had just hired Mysaria sooner... Whatever last bits of reservations we had in idtentifying Helaena as autistic have been put to bed and, yes we do talk about the Roman Empire and compare Helaena to Octavia. Akash goes on further about the Roman Empire to discuss the the rise of Nationalism and the End of Empires, Machiavelli, and how the Dance of the Dragons is really the beginning of the Decay of Targaryan dynasty.


Oh, and we're all just Bakers.
