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! Happy 100th episode, and thank you so much to everyone who's listened and supported us so far!   In this episode, Bran is caught between magic and politics, Winged Wolf and Prince of Winterfell, as embodied by his two mentors: Jojen Reed and Maester Luwin.   This week, we:  - Praise how masterfully George changes moods as this chapter goes along - Shiver as Jojen gets creepy with Bran's dreams - Zoom out to put the "little grandfather" in context with the other magical heralds of A Clash of Kings - Sift through both the short-term blind spots and long-term wisdom of Maester Luwin's worldview - Pity Bran for his bittersweet dreams of knighthood, tempting him onward to sorcery Next week: back to King's Landing for ACOK Tyrion VII as Lannister dysfunction somehow gets even worse. And we will be joined by a new guest: Jinx Lierre!

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, Daenerys arrives at our VERY FAVORITE setting in the series: the city of Qarth. Hooray.   This week, we:    - Discuss the "leftover" bits of ASOIAF - Praise the trippy imagery in the Qarth storyline... - ...and critique the shapeless plot and threadbare supporting cast - Lay out Dany's (somewhat redundant) character beats in ACOK - Come up with opposite ideas about how we would fix Qarth Next week: we fly back to Winterfell for Bran IV and our ONE HUNDREDTH EPISODE!  Our patreon:  www.patreon.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our twitter:  twitter.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our facebook:  www.facebook.com/groups/289889118235797/   Our youtube page:  www.youtube.com/channel/UCmmDfPdG…iew_as=subscriber   Emmett's twitter:  twitter.com/PoorQuentyn   Jeff's twitter:  twitter.com/BryndenBFish

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, Arya bears witness to war crimes before being enslaved and force marched to Harrenhal.

  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 brings Cersei good news: Renly and Stannis are fighting each other! Oh, and Tyrion also poisons her, strips her of her protectors, and throws Pycelle in jail without her permission...but for Tyrion and Cersei, this counts as getting along.   This week, we:  - Wonder what would've happened if Tyrion had killed Cersei in this chapter - Compare and contrast the unhappy Baratheons with the unhappy Lannisters - Analyze how Tyrion uses the power of the Iron Throne - Watch Tyrion take Pycelle apart - Theorize about what Tyrion's role will be in the war against the Others Next week:  George invokes centuries’ worth of war crimes along Arya's path to Harrenhal, Emmett’s favorite place in Westeros, for some reason.   Our patreon:  www.patreon.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our twitter:  twitter.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our facebook:  www.facebook.com/groups/289889118235797/   Our youtube page:  www.youtube.com/channel/UCmmDfPdG…iew_as=subscriber   Emmett's twitter:  twitter.com/PoorQuentyn   Jeff's twitter:  twitter.com/BryndenBFish
