  • Great hosts, great content!

    I found this podcast because I’m a follower of Rhani’s on TikTok, and I love it! I’ve never read the books but now I get to pretend I have heehee 💗 Very entertaining but also comforting enough to listen to while sleeping!

    I came because I wanted a collegiate lecture on all things Game of Thrones. I stayed to listen to two grown men harass each other with making musical theatre references.

  • My comfort podcast

    Not to be dramatic, but this podcast got me through 2025, which was a bad year for several national and global reasons, but also my cat got really sick and died. Rhani and Spicer’s goofball queer joy gets me out of my head better than just about anything else. I also truly adore them for going so hard on feminist and queer readings of these books, and damn it’s nice to hear two besties appreciating the hell out of GRRM’s story craft. Is it a perfect podcast? No, but also yes it really is.

    I left the GoT fandom over 10 years ago, but have recently let it back into my dark winter heart. And these 2 adorable sassy theatre spawn, are such a nice addition to the over serious, indulgent content that can take over the GoT space. They balance each other well, and live in a sweet spot with their fun, intelligent analysis of the text. Mermaids lives Matter.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Daenerys Doesn’t Want a Lavender Marriage | A Song of Spice and Rhani | S2 Episode 15
Q: Who would A Song of Ice and Fire characters have endorsed in the New York mayoral race?
They joke that Tywin would back Cuomo, Dany would support Mamdani, and Davos would back Curtis Sliwa, with Cersei dramatically weighing in on the lie-detecting politics of the moment; the exchange riffs on loyalty, power, and political theater rather than offering a serious endorsement.
Catelyn Stark is a Single Mom Who Works Two Jobs | A Song of Spice and Rhani | S2 Episode 12
Q: Which character do you think embodies the most resilience this episode?
Catelyn, despite being surrounded by idiots and under constant political pressure, actively tries to conceive alliances and protect her people, showing strategic thinking and personal sacrifice.
Cersei Lannister Continues to Fail Upwards | A Song of Spice and Rhani | S2 Episode 13
Q: Question, since we are in Spoohe Month, who would you cast in a Rocky Horror Westeros production?
They propose a playful, fictional casting using recognizable actors and in-universe characters to blend the two universes for entertainment, emphasizing humor over canonical casting.
Tyrion Can’t Stop Making Dumb Decisions | A Song of Spice and Rhani | S3 Episode 5
Q: In the spirit of RuPaul's Who Would Play Her, which celebrity would play each of the seven? Bonus points for who would play R'hllor and the Drowned God, who is canonically a woman according to Davos.
The hosts brainstorm a playful, pop-culture casting exercise, assigning celebrity appearances to archetypes like the mother, maiden, warrior, and the gods, while acknowledging the Drowned God might be portrayed as a female figure in their speculative cast.
Tyrion Traumatizes Us with Gravy | A Song of Spice and Rhani | S2 Episode 16
Q: What would you give as your white elephant gift if you were Stannis?
Rhani and Spicer joke about literal, symbolic gifts—Stannis brings a literal white elephant, Tyrion brings an overly expensive bottle of wine, and Cersei buys the cheapest wine—using humor to underscore character traits and power dynamics in the realm.
