Monday Jul 20, 2020
Hello and welcome back to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week!
In this episode, Tyrion bids farewell to Myrcella and runs straight into a peasant riot.
This week, we:
- Examine Myrcella as a political figure
- Peel back the layers of Tyrion's mindset RE both Stannis and the smallfolk as threats
- Contrast the potentially manufactured spark of the riot with the genuine grievances motivating it
- Praise George's exquisite pacing and ramp-up to the riot itself
- Brainstorm better directions for justice in King's Landing
Next week: we cover the aftermath of and fallout from the riot in the second half of ACOK, Tyrion IX!

@Doofusmcgoofus : Emmet’s real world opinions often border on laughable but to compare Mike Brown to Rosa Parks and MLK Jr. takes the cake. Also, crime scenes being left undisturbed - especially when eyes witnesses conflict - is SOP. Reminder that the wounds proved he was not shot in the back, and all of those people LIED

Mike Brown got shot while breaking into a man’s car and trying to steal the latter’s gun. This is a lawful self defense killing in the bluest parts of every state.
