We discuss the very busy seventh episode of Game of Thrones: Season 5, as a long-awaited meeting occurred. 

May 18, 2015

Hello! Welcome to our latest Game of Thrones show. This week, Roth Cornet is joined by Joshua Yehl to discuss the events of Game of Thrones, Season 5, Episode 6, Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken.

We open up with our thoughts on the episode and an initial response to that final, controversial scene. We talk about the episode as a whole, though. Including: Arya's evolution and whether or not the Dorne storyline is paying off.

From there, we spend a bulk of the time unpacking that Sansa wedding night scene, the various takes on it, and why it did or did not work for us.

Finally, we touch on the Littlefinger's reveal, and what it might mean going forward.

Okay, guys! This was a tough one and we understand that there a are a lot of different opinions out there and that this is a topic that inspires some understandable emotion for many. It's totally fine to agree or disagree with what anyone is saying, let's just try to keep the discussion thoughtful and respectful - particularly given the sensitive nature of the subject matter.

Welcome back to IGN's Game of Thrones show! This week, Roth Cornet (I think I just wrote about myself in the third person there, which is weird. Anyway!) is joined by Game of Thrones experts Sam Claiborn and Steve Butts to dive into Game of Thrones, Season 5, episode 5, "Kill the Boy".

After our we give our initial responses to the episode, we delve into the nitty gritty of what's happening on Game of Thrones this season; including Jon and his controversial decision, Dany and her "How to Feed a Dragon" lesson in terror, what the heck is going on with Sansa, and Tyrion goes to Volantis!

From there, we take some reader email on who may ultimately win the throne, and a possible spinoff series. Finally - with plenty of warning - we head into some book spoiler territory!

Welcome back to IGN's Game of Thrones show! This week, Eric Goldman and Roth Cornet give their initial impressions of episode 4, "Sons of the Harpy", of Season 5 of the HBO series.

From there, we move into a deeper discussion of some of the particulars of the episode, the Sparrows - the newly empowered faith militant - and Cersei's big move against Margaery, Tommen learning some of the pitfalls of leadership (as Dany continues to discover), Jamie and Bronn and the evolving storyline in Dorne - including our first real look at the Sand Snakes, and what Melisandre is up to over at the Wall.

Then we move on to some social questions, including: Who we would or would not bring back to life on Game of Thrones, if Bran Stark will make an appearance this season, and the point of the dragons on the series (hint: they're DRAGONS :)).

From there, we move on to our regularly scheduled book-spoiler section of the program!
