Fort time watching game of thrones and nice to have had a spoiler free podcast to follow along. That being said I’m not sure this guy likes this show at all and is terribly annoying.

I’m obsessed with Joanna Robinson, I find her to be the best podcaster working today. She’s so thoughtful and I’ve been following her work via the ringer for years, when I began watching GoT for the first time here in 2025 I was curious if Joanna had done a commentary or pod and that’s how I found she and Dave! I love this pod! I’m going per episode I watch and then I listen! Just sending some love to y’all in 2025! Also, Joanna you were right about Jon and Ygritte when you mentioned the season ... more

I was looking for some nostalgia GOT shows. I really liked how this one started. Unfortunately…it went downhill fast. The male host constantly talks down to the female host. Their politics have seeped into the show which I hate. If I wanted politics I’d listen to a political show.
Just listen to season 1 and 2, that’s about it. #NotEntertaining
