Ep. 125: Euron Greyjoy Appreciation Podcast
This week we're jumping on the Game of Thrones bandwagon. As the series comes to a close we talk through some of the politics that the show grapples with--from the lack of a peasantry perspective to depictions of revolutionary violence--as well as issues like representation and, of course, just general complaining about the final season.
Enjoy!
