The Silent Sisters Podcast

E21 - HotD2 E2 Part 1, The Decay of the Dragons Begins ft. Akash

Silent Sisters Episode 24

An exciting TV episode deserves an exciting analysis, and, with enormous help from returning guest Akash, The Silent Sisters certainly deliver in this two-part episode covering House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 2 "Rhaenyra the Cruel". We explore the episode through an in-depth summary that led to many unplanned discussions before looking at Alicent and Otto's relationship, the Hightower family emotions (or lack there of), and the perception of power.
