Episode 77: A CLASH OF KINGS, TYRION I: "The New Boss"

Hello and welcome back to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter (though not in this case) podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week!

 

In this episode, everyone’s a gangster until a gangster walks in the room.

 

This week, we:

 

- Discuss the themes of each book

 

- Look at Tyrion at Michael Corleone from The Godfather

 

- Analyze the series of tests that Tyrion has to undergo on his first day at the job

 

- Talk about what Tyrion is actually doing in propping Joffrey up

 

- Make the uncontroversial argument that Tyrion in Seasons 2-4 of Game of Thrones is better than Tyrion in Storm and Clash.

 

Next week, we head north to Winterfell, where Bran Stark is trying really really hard to be a good prince, but can’t ignore the wolf-howl in his head telling him he’s something else entirely...
