For the past nine years we've shared a piece of our collective Sundays and we weren't quite ready for that to end. A week removed from the finale the ToB crew got together to record another Live show and discuss the season with the benefit of a coupl... more
Here we are at last: Journey's End.
After nearly a decade of plots and betrayals, wars and magic, politics and prophesies the Song of Ice and Fire has come to an end, The final season has been nothing if not controversial, but still represents the c... more
The penultimate episode of each season is typically cataclysmic and, being the final season, S8E5 really took this trend and ran with it. While this will likely prove to be one of the most divisive and, to some, unforgivable episodes, it was nothing ... more
With the Long Night averted we all needed an episode to decompress, surviving characters included. The episode opens with the aftermath of the battle as the remaining characters light funeral pyres, hail the victorious dead, and prepare their deplete... more
As far back as the Season 1 prologue the White Walkers have been an omnipresent and insidious undercurrent of the series; while the Great Houses squabbled over precedent, weddings, trials, and subterfuge, the Army of the Dead was slowly building powe... more
ToB is back to breakdown Season 8 Episode 2: “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms”, which proves to be a predominantly light, genuinely heartwarming, and endlessly joyful episode; a rarity among GoT episodes and feels almost too good to be true..

Here we are at last, the much-anticipated Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 1 "Winterfell" has arrived. Eight years of intricate storytelling, twists, turns, betrayals, plots and schemes have been leading up to this point (I know, plots and schemes ar... more
We’re only a week away from the beginning of the end of Game of Thrones. It’s a sad and unfortunate reality. I know you probably want to soak up as much GoT over the next 6 weeks as you possibly can, and luckily ToB is here to help.

United States7 years ago - I love this podcast
A lot of it is a break down of GoT episodes. It's very interesting to me, the book reader and the show watcher. They make me laugh some of the time as well. I'll be listening to this for season 8 breakdowns. This is the BEST GoT Podcast!! 🤘😎🤘Check it out ⚔️🛡
Apple Podcasts5-->not_back|OnlyForward-->United States7 years ago - Go to for best theories and analysis
Don’t pay attention to older reviews, these guys give the best in-depth knowledge on thrones episodes . Most other pods just summarize and react but these guys delve into theories and connections within the show constantly
Apple Podcasts5Lilram911United States7 years ago - Love this!
I look forward to these guys’ insight and humor when GoT is in session!
Apple Podcasts5jaboviloUnited States7 years ago - There is roomFor improvement
I’ve been listening to this podcast, along with a few other GOT podcasts for a while now. This probably ranks 4th out of the 4. It’s definitely not as bad as the one where the hosts just keep laughing and retelling the same jokes and impressions over and over and over and over again.
However, I agree with some of the other commenters that the host who hasn’t read the books can be a bit frustrating at times. And yes, it does seem that he hasn’t watched the episodes or didn’t really pay attenti... more
Apple Podcasts3Neplusultra123United States7 years ago - Excellent podcast
I love listening to you both and can’t get enough of your content! You’re both very knowledgeable but the way you recap the episodes is easy to understand. Your discussions are highly detailed but very relatable. Keep going guys!

United Kingdom7 years ago - Great, intelligent discussion
Smart, funny and insightful breakdown of Game of Thrones
Apple Podcasts5YupOkayUnited States7 years ago - Tower of Babble RULES
I love this podcast!!
1. Excellent analysis.
2. Great voices with adorable Canadian accents.
3. Hosts are super nice and they responded to my question the same day I asked it.
4. Hope they continue the Season 1 re-watch because Apple podcasts doesn't carry their back episodes from way back when.
Love you guys!!
Apple Podcasts5HoodieTreeUnited States7 years ago - So boring
They now spend about half their episode thanking people for donations (not sure what they are raising money for).
Daniel is really good to listen to, he makes a lot of really good points, but the other guy is the one talking about 80% he talks really slowly and doesn’t always make sense with his words. He just recaps each scene with little analysis, and is OBSESSED with how long it takes characters to travel, as if an episode is a unit of time, which it’s not. He is also not very knowledgeable a... more

Greetings my friends from México i love YouTube podcast... Will mías you

Mexico8 years ago - Fun and Interesting
I'm a casual watcher of Game of Thrones and looked for a podcast to fill in the gaps of things I missed. These guys do a great job of recapping each episode and explaining things that happened in each scene. Daniel's book knowledge really helps me understand the backstory or get some of the lore that makes the Game of Thrones world more interesting. Overall I really like it and look forward to watching the final season with them.
Apple Podcasts5maddig3United States8 years ago - Great GOT Recap
My husband and I found this podcast at the start of Season 6 and have been listening ever since. Julian and Daniel, two Canadian guys, enjoy recapping the show and speculating what scenes may mean and what may happen next. Julian is a non-book reader, while Daniel has read them all. Together they share their show experience with other fans. It is like sitting in with friends to discuss something you all enjoy.

Australia8 years ago - Best Game of Thrones podcast!
Daniel and Julian are always entertaining and very knowledgeable about Game of Thrones. I've listened to every episode and it gets better every season. Both hosts are very insightful, discuss interesting theories, and have a great sense of humor too. It feels like sitting down with friends and talking about the show. You can't go wrong with this Game of Thrones podcast. I'm planning to start watching Westworld too, partly so I can listen to the Tower of Babble breakdowns for it.
Apple Podcasts5dpt108United States8 years ago - Excellent Podcast
Just two dudes talking about each episode. This is an every week listen for me. They recap it in detail while adding in their own analysis. They add a bit of history as well - both real world history and ASOIF world history - that I particularly enjoy. Plus they're Canadian - so they got that goin' for 'em, eh?
