E20 - HotD2 E1, It's Official: Murder is Bad ft. Zach of the North

Silent Sisters Episode 20

Let's be clear: We do not condone murder in general, but especially child murder. But spectacles? well. . .

In this episode we look at and probably over analyze the first episode of House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 1 "A Song for a Son". Joining us in the first of this eight week endeavor is our friend Zach of the North. We discuss sex, murder, grief and preemptive villianification, and the Small Folk, with fun asides thrown in there to keep things lively. We establish the rule of thumb to help you remember which King's Guard Twin is which and who they support. Ser Erik "With An E" supports RhaenEEra while Ser Arik "With an A" supports AAAAAAAlicent. And thought we already knew it, we emphasize again that Daemon is not a great guy.


Also, Fuck the Patriarchy.
